INSTALLATION
WARNING: This Class A equipment is not
intended for use in residential locations where the
electrical power is provided by the public low-
voltage supply system. There may be potential
difficulties
in
ensuring
compatibility in those locations, due to conducted
as well as radiated disturbances. This equipment is
comply with IEC 61000-3-12. If it is connected to a
public low voltage system, it is the responsibility of
the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by
consultation with the distribution network operator
if
necessary,
that
the
connected. The good operation of the machine is
ensured by correct installation; you must therefore
proceed as follows:
- Position the machine in such a way that there is
no obstacle to the air circulation ensured by the
internal fan since the internal components require
suitable cooling.
- Ensure that the fan does not send deposits or
dust into the machine.
- Avoid impacts, rubbing, and – absolutely no
exposure to dripping water, excessive heat
sources, or any abnormal situations.
MAINS VOLTAGE
The machine operates from a mains voltages
differing by +/-30% from the rated mains value
(example: 230V rated, Minimum voltage 160V,
maximum voltage 270V).

CONNECTION
- Before making the electrical connections between
the Inverter and the line switch, ensure that the
switch is turned off .
- The distribution panel must comply with the
regulations in force in the country of use.
- The mains system must be of the industrial type.
- When using long extension cables, the core
diameter section is increased as required for
optimum performance.
- The power input supply socket must have a suitable
switch provided with #slow burning' type fuse(s).
- In the event of damage to the power cable,
replacement or repair must be performed by a
qualified person at an approved service centre.
EARTHING
- To ensure user protection the Inverter must by
law be correctly connected to the earth system
(INTERNATIONAL SAFETY REGULATIONS).
- It is indispensable to provide good earthing by
means of the yellow-green wire in the power cable,
in order to avoid discharges due to accidental
contacts with earthed objects .
- The chassis (which is conductive) is electrically
connected with the earth wire; if the equipment is
not suitably connected to earth it may cause
electric shocks which are dangerous to the user

and those nearby.
PNEUMATIC CIRCUIT CONNECTION:
The PLASMAX DUO uses compressed air for
plasma cutting. Any cylinder of compressed air
may therefore be used, or air from a compressor.
The air must be free from polluting particles, such
as oil or other contaminating agents. A pressure
regulator is provided to ensure the correct air flow
rate on the torch.
KEY:
1– Air filter
2– Reducer (pressure regulator)
3– Pressure gauge
4– Pressure switch
5– Solenoid valves
A pressure higher than 5 bar (5-5.5 bar) must be
applied to the air filter located on the rear panel of
the PLASMAX DUO (100l/min). The pressure must
not exceed 6 bar. The pressure regulator 1 is set
by the manufacturer at 4.8 bar. Check the pressure
by pressing the Air Test button on the front panel
and check that the pressure gauge gives a reading
of 4.8 bar. If it should be necessary to regulate the
pressure, refer to the regulating procedure in the
TROUBLE SHOOTING section.
Pay
particular
attention
connection cables. Any blockage of the tubes or
excessive lengths may cause problems during the
cutting process.
A pressure switch set at 3 bar inhibits operation
when the pressure at output of the reducer is
insufficient to guarantee operation.
