Coolant flow tests
If the LED display on the gas console shows a coolant flow error (093 or 060), turn OFF the system and then ON again
to clear the error. Then perform the following tests to find the cause of the problem.
An in-line flow meter is the most accurate way to measure the flow rate, but can not be used with all the tests described.
An in-line flow meter (part number 128933) is available from Hypertherm. The following “bucket” tests give a good idea
of the flow rate.
Before testing
Note: Coolant must be drained from the system before the in-line filter is cleaned (step 1 below). The coolant in
the system will drain out as soon as the in-line filter is removed.
1. Clean the in-line filter.
2. Replace the filter on the rear of the power supply.
3. Verify that the system has the correct level of coolant, when refilling the system after completing steps 1 and 2.
Using the Hypertherm flow meter (128933)
Use the steps below to get an accurate reading from the flow meter.
1. Hold the flow meter upright. Square in both axis.
2. Take your reading from the edge shown below.
