Problem Solution
The power ON LED is illuminated and
the torch cap LED is illuminated or
blinks.
• Turn OFF the power supply and tighten or install
the consumables. See Section 4, Install the
consumables.
If the consumables become loose or were
removed while the power supply is ON, turn OFF
the power supply, correct the problem and then
turn ON the power supply to clear this fault.
The gas pressure and temperature
LEDs blink when the system is
powered on.
• If the power supply is turned on while the torch
trigger is pressed, the system will be disabled.
Release the trigger and restart the power supply.
All LEDs blink when the system is
powered on or the torch is fired several
times in succession.
• All LEDs blinking indicates a major fault. A
qualified service technician must service the
system. Contact your distributor or use the
information in the front of this book to contact
Hypertherm Technical Service.
Note: Using a generator with a Powermax30 system
that has a serial number below
30-003132 can cause the LEDs to blink if the
generator delivers a higher than normal
voltage. To correct the fault, disconnect the
Powermax30 from the generator and check
the generator’s voltage regulator.
The arc does not transfer to the
workpiece.
• Clean the area where the clamp contacts the
workpiece to ensure a good metal-to-metal
connection.
• Inspect the work clamp for damage and repair it if
necessary.
• The torch may be too far away from the workpiece.
Move the torch closer to the workpiece and fire
the torch again. See Section 4, Hand torch
operation.
