Parkside Plasmaschneider »PPS 40 B3«

Cutting performance

The electronically controlled plasma stream is designed for even cuts. The cutting current can be adjusted continuously from 15–40 A to suit the material thickness and cutting requirements. Pilot ignition starts the plasma stream without contact, so the nozzle does not need to touch the workpiece at the start. This reduces nozzle wear.

The cutter is suitable for steel plate, stainless steel, aluminium, copper and iron. Cutting capacity varies by material: up to 12 mm for steel plate. For stainless steel and aluminium, cutting speed may need to be adjusted to account for thickness and heat conduction.

Air connection and safety

The cutter operates on compressed air at a working pressure of 4–4.5 bar. It has a rear compressed-air connection with a pressure gauge and regulator, plus a 2 m air hose with QuickConnect. A suitable compressor is required and is not included. The unit is compatible with standard compressors, for example the PARKSIDE PKO 500 A1.

Thermal protection with an indicator light provides overload protection. This Class A device may cause electromagnetic interference, and its suitability for residential areas supplied by a public low-voltage network is limited. Before use, read the instruction manual, wear suitable protective clothing, and check the compressor output and working pressure.
