1.1 Introduction

The process of cutting metals with plasma equipment

provides industry with a valuable and versatile tool.

ESAB cutting machines are designed to provide both

operation safety and efficiency. However, as with any

machine tool, sensible attention to operating

procedures, precautions, and safe practices is

necessary to achieve a full measure of usefulness.

Whether an individual is involved with operation,

servicing, or as an observer, compliance with

established precautions and safe practices must be

accomplished. Failure to observe certain precautions

could result in serious personnel injury or severe

equipment damage. The following precautions are

general guidelines applicable when working with

cutting machines. More explicit precautions pertaining

to the basic machine and accessories are found in the

instruction literature. For a wide scope of safety

information on the field of cutting and welding

apparatus, obtain and read the publications listed in

the Recommended References.

1.2 Safety Notations And Symbols

The following words and symbols are used throughout

this manual. They indicate different levels of required

safety involvement.

2.1 General

The PT-24 Precision Plasmarc Integrated Flow

Control System provides programmable gas

switching and pressure control. The IFC is the next

generation electronic flow control combining

junction and flow control box components for:

a reduced combined footprint,

fewer parts,

improved reliability,

and improved high speed marking option.

The gas pressure and switching is controlled

through the cutting machine CNC eliminating the

need for other programmable controls.

2.2 Scope

The purpose of this manual is to provide the

operator with all the information required to install

and operate the Precision Plasmarc System.

Technical reference material is also provided to

assist in troubleshooting the cutting package.
