5-6 HPR400XD Auto Gas – 806160
Gas system purge cycle
When the system is turned on, or the operator changes from one cut process to another, the system automatically goes
through a purge cycle. The purge cycle has 2 stages; a preflow purge and a cutflow purge.
The preflow purge gas flows for 8 seconds with an auto gas console, or 12 seconds with a manual gas console.
The cutflow purge gas flows for 8 seconds with an auto gas console, or 12 seconds with a manual gas console.
There are 2 exceptions to the cycle described above.
Exception 1 – if the operator changes from a non-fuel gas process (O
2
/Air, Air/Air, or N
2
/Air) to a fuel gas process
(H35/N
2
, or F5/N
2
) or the reverse, there will be 3 stages to the purge process. Nitrogen will purge the
gas system first, for 12 seconds. The preflow and cutflow purges will follow the nitrogen purge.
Note: Error code 42 (low nitrogen gas pressure) will be displayed, if nitrogen is not connected to the gas system.
If error code 42 is not resolved in 3 minutes, it will be replaced by error code 139 (purge time-out error).
Exception 2 – no purge cycle will occur if the operator changes from any cut process to a nitrogen or argon marking
process.
