4.4.3 Process Data for PT19XLS (or PT-600) and ESP-200
4.4.3.1 Introduction
SECTION 4 OPERATION
The cutting speeds and conditions in the following tables were selected to give the best quality with a particular gas com-
bination at a specic current. They are unique to the ESP-200/PT19XLS combination because of restrictive gas ports built
into the power supply
Consumables - Refer to recommended parts for these conditions. Use of parts in combinations and ap-•
plications other than as described herein can result in damage to the torch or poor performance.
Gas and Current Selection- Refer to the following tables to chose the most appropriate conditions for •
your application.
Maximum Economy- Refer to Paragraph D for high speed cutting conditions where cost is a principle •
concern.
4.4.3.2 Process Data at 50 to 65 Amps (PT-19XLS and PT-600)
Refer to your torch manual for recommended consumables for cutting at this current.
