2. Información de seguridade

Priorice sempre a seguridade ao operar o cortador de plasma. O incumprimento das pautas de seguridade pode provocar lesións graves ou danos ao equipo.

• Choque eléctrico: O corte por plasma implica un alto volumetage. Ensure proper grounding. Do not operate in wet conditions. Wear dry gloves.
• Fumos e Gases: Cutting metals produces fumes and gases that can be hazardous. Work in a well-ventilated area or use local exhaust ventilation.
• Raios de arco: The plasma arc produces intense visible and invisible (UV and IR) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Always wear appropriate welding helmet with a suitable shade filter, protective clothing, and gloves.
• Incendio e explosión: Sparks and hot metal can cause fires. Keep flammable materials away from the cutting area. Do not cut containers that have held combustible materials.
• Ruído: Plasma cutting can be noisy. Wear hearing protection.
• Partes quentes: The torch and workpiece will become hot. Allow them to cool before handling or wear heat-resistant gloves.
• Aire comprimido: Ensure air compressor is properly maintained and regulated to the specified PSI.
• Equipos de protección individual (EPI): Always wear appropriate PPE, including a welding helmet, flame-resistant clothing, heavy-duty gloves, and safety footwear.

5. Instrucións de configuración

5.1. Conexión de alimentación

The FC650D PLUS supports dual voltagentrada electrónica (120 V/240 V).

• For 240V operation, connect the main power cord directly to a compatible 240V outlet. Ensure the circuit breaker is rated for at least 40A.
• For 120V operation, use the provided power adapter to connect the main power cord to a 120V outlet. Ensure the circuit breaker is rated for at least 55A.
• Always ensure the power source is stable and properly grounded.

5.2. Conexión do compresor de aire

A clean, dry air supply is crucial for optimal plasma cutting performance.

• Connect your air compressor to the air inlet on the back of the plasma cutter.
• The FC650D PLUS features a pre-installed air filter regulator. This regulator automatically senses and displays the air pressure on the digital screen, eliminating the need for an external gauge.
• Ensure your air compressor can provide a minimum of 90 PSI and 60 L/min airflow.

5.3. Tocha e terra Clamp Conexión

• Connect the PT31 plasma cutting torch cable to the designated port on the front panel of the machine. Ensure it is securely fastened.
• Conecte a terra clamp cable to the ground terminal on the front panel.
• Suxeitar o chan clamp firmly to the workpiece or a clean, bare metal surface that is electrically connected to the workpiece. A good ground connection is essential for safe and effective cutting.

6. Instrucións de funcionamento

6.1. Powering On and Digital Display

Turn on the power switch located on the back of the unit. The large digital display will illuminate, showing real-time parameters.

Figure 6.1: The digital display provides real-time operational data.

• The display shows air pressure (PSI), output current (Amps), and voltage.
• Indicators for Post Air, Pilot Arc, Air Pressure, Air Testing, 2T, and 4T functions are also present.
• Adjust the current using the control knob on the front panel to match your cutting requirements.

6.2. Understanding PA/2T/4T Functions

• PA (Post Air) Time: This function allows adjustment of the post-flow air time after the arc is extinguished. Proper post-air time helps cool the torch consumables, extending their lifespan.
• 2T (Two-Touch) Control: This is a semi-automatic cutting control mode. Press and hold the torch trigger to start the arc and cut. Release the trigger to stop. Ideal for short, quick cuts.
• 4T (Four-Touch) Control: This is an automatic cutting control mode. Press and release the torch trigger to start the arc and cut continuously. Press and release the trigger again to stop. This mode is suitable for long, continuous cuts, reducing operator fatigue and potentially leading to higher cutting quality with lower consumable wear.

6.3. Cutting Performance and Material Compatibility

The FC650D PLUS is capable of cutting various types of metal with precision.

Figure 6.2: Demonstrating clean cut and severance cut capabilities.

• Clean Cut: Up to 1/2 inch (12mm) at 35A (120V, 50 PSI). This refers to a cut with minimal dross and a smooth edge.
• Severance Cut: Up to 5/8 inch (16mm) at 60A (240V, 60 PSI). This refers to the maximum thickness the machine can cut, though the quality of the cut may be reduced.
• The machine effortlessly cuts through rough, painted, and rusty surfaces while generating minimal slag.

Materiais compatibles:

• Metal
• Steels
• Placa de aluminio
• Ferro
• Aceiro inoxidable
• Aceiro de aliaxe
• Aceiro suave

7. Mantemento

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your plasma cutter. Always disconnect the power before performing any maintenance.

• Inspección de consumibles: Regularly inspect the torch consumables (electrode, nozzle, swirl ring, shield cup) for wear. Replace them when they show signs of degradation to maintain cut quality and prevent damage to the torch.
• Regulador do filtro de aire: Periodically check the water trap on the air filter regulator. Drain any accumulated moisture to ensure a dry air supply. Clean or replace the filter element if it becomes clogged.
• Sistema de refrixeración: Ensure the cooling vents on the machine are clear of dust and debris to prevent overheating. Use compressed air to blow out dust from inside the machine if necessary (do this in a well-ventilated area).
• Cables e conexións: Inspect all cables (power, torch, ground) for damage, cuts, or frayed insulation. Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
• Limpeza xeral: Keep the exterior of the machine clean. Wipe down with a dry cloth. Avoid using solvents that could damage the casing.
