Hi everyone,
a while ago I purchased a secondhand Pierce Control Automation Oxy/Plasma Scorpion 2000 and have spent a bit of time getting the computer working. I have everything moving now, however, I am having difficulty working out how the Propane and Oxy pressure adjustments work.
It has a 3 hose Oxy torch and a gas console with 3 regulators with gauges as well as a couple of smaller regulator/valves. Each of the gas console regulators have a solenoid, i.e. one for propane, pre-heat Oxy, Cut Oxy, however, there are a two more solenoids which appear to bypass the propane regulator and pre-heat Oxy regulator providing both at cylinder pressure.
Does anyone have one of these or can anyone else explain how I need to adjust the pressures? I have the pressure charts for the torch/tip which show propane, preheat Oxy and cut Oxy pressures, however, if the extra solenoids open at cylinder pressure what should they be set at?
Also, what/when do I use the smaller regulator/valves? One is on the propane the other is on the cut oxy line
