Powermax 65 Breaker popping

Post by 03ultraglide »

I know this could be several possibilities but hypertherm 65 keeps tripping the power switch. Sometimes I can't get it to start cutting. Like no power to trigger.

Do you get an error code on the LCD screen, something like 0-99?

If you do or even if you don't I would access the service screen and see what it is telling you.

Use this link https://www.plasmaspider.com/download/c ... Screen.pdf to learn how to access the service screen and read what each diagnostic code means.

Let is know what you find.
