About the hand torch
SmartSYNC hand torches come in 75° and 15°
models.
The 75° hand torch is a general purpose torch
designed for the widest range of applications.
The 15° hand torch is designed to point heat
away from the operator during heavy gouging. It also makes it easier to cut overhead or in
areas that are not easy to reach.
SmartSYNC hand torch features include the following:
A control on the torch that lets you adjust the output current (A) from the torch (refer to
Adjust the amperage from the hand torch on page 73)
Automatic setting of operating mode, amperage, and gas pressure related to the
Hypertherm cartridge that you install, the torch type, and the torch lead length
Communication of cartridge information to the plasma power supply, including cartridge
end-of-life detection (refer to Cartridge Data screen on page 154 and Power Supply Data
screen on page 156)
A torch-lock switch that prevents the torch from firing accidentally, even when the plasma
power supply is ON (refer to Step 5 – Unlock the SmartSYNC torch on page 70)
