Plasma burner 8
is not ready for
operation?
Sparks fl y
upwards, instead
of down through
the material?
Initial cut but not
completely drilled
through?
Slag formation on
interfaces?
Consumables
wear quickly?
Current switch is switched off.

Air transmission is restricted.

Workpiece is not connected to

the ground terminal.
Burner sleeve 8c

penetrate the material.
Burner sleeve 8c

away from the material.
Apparently material was not

grounded properly.
Lifting speed is too quick.

Potential connection problem.

Tool/material creates heat.

Cutting speed too low or

current too high.
Plasma burner component

parts are worn 8b
Performance was

overstretched.
Arc control time exceeded.

Incorrect plasma burner

assembly.
Insuffi cient air supply,

pressure too low.
Faulty air compressor.

Switch the current switch to

"on".
Another indication of this is

a green fl ame. Check the air
supply.
Check the connections.

Increase the current.

does not
Reduce the distance between

the burner sleeve
is too far
material.
Check the connection for

correct grounding.
Reduce the speed.

Check all connections.

Allow the material to cool

down and then continue
cutting.
Increase the speed and/or

reduce the current until the
, 8c , 8d , 8e .
slag has been reduced to a
minimum.
Check and replace worn

parts.
Material too thick, increase

the angle to avoid material
from being blown back into
the tip.
Do not control the arc for

more than 5 seconds. You can
also start with contact
between the burner sleeve
and metal or with a 3.2 mm
distance to the metal.
Check the air fi lter, increase

the air pressure.
Check the performance of

the external air compressor
and make sure the pressure
is 4–4.5 bar.
