2.0 Introduction

2.1 General

The Powercut 1600 is a compact plasma cutting system. As shipped, the system is fully assembled and 
ready to cut after being connected to input power and a source of compressed air (350 cfh @ 90 psi / 6.2  
bar). The Powercut package uses the heavy-duty PT-38 (manual plasma) torch to deliver cutting power for 
selected materials up to 1.50 inch (38.1 mm) thick and severing selected materials up to 1.75 inch (45 mm) 
thick

2.2 Scope

The purpose of this manual is to provide qualified repair personnel with technical information which will as

-

sist in troubleshooting and repairing malfunctions.

2.3 Service Manual Format

The “machine operation” flow diagram starts the breakdown of the functionally of the PC-1600. Each of the 

major components is divided into sections, which are described in the pages that follow. Each section in the 

flow chart has a matching section on the main schematic and is applied to the description pages.

Each section starts with the schematic view with description, if the section includes a printed circuit PC 
board, it is followed by a PC board schematic, the layout of the board and then the component list for the 
board. Some PC boards will also have “mini descriptions” of selected circuits. This information is for trou-
bleshooting purposes only, PC board repair is not recommended.
