Why is the pilot ignition failing on my Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT?
Pilot ignition failure may occur due to several reasons. Check if the torch consumable parts are worn. If they are, ensure the current control setting matches the consumables. High plasma pressure, a defective arc starter, a defective Pilot PCB, or a defective Inverter section 1A could also be the cause.
Why does my Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT have pilot timeout and no transfer?
Pilot timeout with no transfer can happen if the standoff is too high, or there's a void in the work under the torch. It could also be due to the current control setting being too low for the consumables, resulting in pilot current that is too low. Wrong gas pressure may also be the reason.
What causes a tip to electrode voltage fault in Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT Welding System?
A tip to electrode voltage fault can be caused by several factors, including the tip voltage being too close to the electrode voltage, the rear panel gas switch being set to the wrong gas, worn-out torch consumable parts, wrong consumables installed causing a tip to electrode short, plasma pressure being too low, a leak in the plasma hose to the torch, the current control set too high for consumables, a defective Pilot PCB, or a shorted torch body.
What causes a lost pilot on Thermal Dynamics Welding System?
A lost pilot can occur if the torch consumable parts are worn. If this is the case, ensure the current control setting matches the consumables. Also, excessively high plasma pressure may cause this issue.
What does 'Tip Saver Fault' mean on Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT Welding System?
The 'Tip Saver Fault' indicates that the tip remained in contact with the work for more than 15 seconds (Pak200i).
How to troubleshoot 'Plasma Disabled' on Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT?
The 'Plasma Disabled' message indicates that the external disable is activated, the CCM TB1-1&2 jumper is missing, or the 40 circuit ribbon cable from the Relay PCB to CCM is disconnected or defective. Ensure the plasma enable is off.
What does 'Device Locked' mean on Thermal Dynamics AUTO-CUT 300 XT?
The 'Device Locked' message on DFC 3000 indicates that a process is loading; wait until it is finished.
