5 – Troubleshooting and System Tests

The gas pressure and
temperature LEDs blink
when the system is
powered ON (I).

• The system was

powered on while the
plasma start signal
was being sent.

• The system was

powered on with the
torch trigger being
pulled.

• The start circuit is

stuck closed.

• Release the torch trigger and

reset the system by turning it
OFF (O), and then turn it ON (I)
again.

• Perform

Test 6 – plasma start

on page 82.

The temperature, gas
pressure, and power ON
LEDs blink, and the torch
cap LED illuminates.

• The inverter is

saturated.

• The inverter is in an

over-current condition.

• The torch was

repeatedly fired with
worn out consumables.

• Install new consumables in the

torch (they may be corroded or
approaching end of life).

• If you continue to see this error,

replace the power board.

All four LEDs blink when
the system is powered ON
(I).

• A major fault has

occurred in the power
supply.

• The fan, solenoid valve,

control board, or
power board is faulty.

• The error LED on the control

board should be blinking. The
number of times it blinks
between pauses indicates
which components to test. See
Control board LEDs on
page 69.

The power-ON LED
illuminates but no fault
LEDs illuminate, and no
gas flows when you pull
the torch trigger.

• The start signal is not

reaching the control
board.

• The torch or torch lead

is damaged.

• The power board is

faulty.

• The control board is

faulty.

• Inspect the torch and torch

lead, and replace if necessary.

• Verify that the control board

start LED illuminates when you
pull the trigger. If it does not,
perform

Test 6 – plasma start

on page 82.

Gas flows when the
system is powered ON (I).

• The incoming gas

pressure is too high.

• The gas pressure from

the compressor or
cylinder is too high.

• The gas solenoid valve

is faulty.

• Verify that the gas supply does

not exceed 9.3 bar (135 psi),
and reduce the pressure if
necessary.

• Perform

Test 4 – solenoid valve

on page 80.
