The gas pressure is lower
than the minimum pressure
for the selected process,
operating mode, torch, lead
length, and Hypertherm
cartridge type.
This fault code stops the system from operating.
Do the following. A quick restart is necessary.
• Examine all the connections for the input
gas supply. Make sure that there are no
leaks or loose connections.
• Make sure that the incoming gas supply
hose has an internal diameter of 10 mm
(3/8 inch) or greater if the hose is less than
15 m (50 feet). For hoses that are
15 m – 30 m (50 feet – 100 feet), use an
internal diameter of 13 mm (1/2 inch) or
greater.
• Make sure that there is sufficient inlet gas
pressure from the gas supply source. Refer
to Inlet gas pressure requirements (while
gas is flowing) on page 58.
• Manually adjust the gas pressure on the
plasma power supply. Refer to page 76.
• Do a gas test to see if the plasma power
supply’s actual output gas pressure is lower
than the set pressure by more than an
acceptable quantity. The set pressure is the
gas pressure that the system sets to align
with the type of cartridge and torch
installed. Refer to page 147.
• If there is no apparent problem with the inlet
gas supply, examine the air filter bowl and
air filter element in the plasma power supply.
Clean or replace as necessary. Refer to
page 171.
• If you continue to get this fault condition,
have an authorized service technician
examine the system. Speak to your
distributor or authorized repair facility.

The gas flow stopped during
cutting (an excessive change
to arc voltage occurred).
This fault code stops the system from operating.
Do the following. A quick restart is necessary.
• Make sure that the correct gas inlet
pressure is available.
• Make sure that none of the gas lines are
kinked or blocked.
• Make sure that the torch lead is not leaking.
Also make sure that it is not kinked or
twisted.
• Install a new Hypertherm cartridge.
• For mechanized applications, lock out the
torch height control.
