There is a torch stuck open
(TSO) condition.
The nozzle and electrode
components inside the
Hypertherm cartridge are not
touching after a Start signal is
received.
These fault codes stop the torch from firing a
plasma arc. In some conditions, you can fire the
torch again and continue to cut.
If the fault occurred when you first installed
the cartridge and tried to fire the torch, do
the following:
• If the Hypertherm cartridge became loose
or was removed while the plasma power
supply was ON and the torch-lock switch
was set to the green “ready to fire”
position ( ), set the power switch on the
plasma power supply to OFF (O), correct
the problem, and set the power switch to
ON (I) to remove the fault.
• Examine the Hypertherm cartridge. Make
sure that it is not worn or damaged.
• Hand torch: Move the torch-lock switch to
the yellow lock (X) position, then move the
torch-lock switch to the green “ready to
fire” ( ) position. Fire the torch 1 time to
get the warning puffs of air. This can clean
away unwanted material that has collected
around the tip of the cartridge.
• Remove the cartridge and carefully shake it
to remove unwanted material that has
collected inside the cartridge. This material
can cause 0-30-0 faults to occur. A higher
rate of 0-30-0 faults is typical as a cartridge
gets near end-of-life.
• Install a new Hypertherm cartridge.
If the fault occurred during postflow or
during a cut, do the following:
• Examine the gas line. Refer to Examine the
gas pressure on page 23 and Examine the
gas quality on page 24.
•Do Test 6 – Torch stuck open (TSO) or
torch stuck closed (TSC) on page 98.
0-30-1 There is a torch stuck closed
(TSC) condition.
The nozzle and electrode
components inside the
Hypertherm cartridge will not
disconnect from each other
after a Start signal is
received.
0-32-0
Yellow
Red
The system sensed that the
cartridge in use is at
end-of-life.
This fault code stops the system from operating.
Install a new cartridge to remove the fault
condition.
• If you restart the plasma power supply and
try to use the same cartridge, the 0-32-1
fault code shows to remind you that the
cartridge is at end-of-life. Hypertherm
strongly recommends that you install a
new cartridge. For information on the
Hypertherm cartridge end-of-life detection
feature, refer to the
Powermax65/85/105 SYNC Operator
Manual (810470).
