Equipment Features

• High heat output capabilities – plasma gas temperatures up to 16,000ºC (28,880ºF)
• High plasma gas velocity – in excess of 3,050 m/s (10,000 ft./sec).
• Dual Gas Capability – operates with either argon or nitrogen as the primary plasma gas.
• High Particle velocities – up to 610 m/s(2,000 ft./sec.)
• Nozzles designed with Thin Annular Passage Cooling (TAP) – precisely direct the cooling water for optimum heat transfer and even distribution within the hardware.
• The design of the electrode allows for impinged water cooling to be directed into the critical tungsten tip area, resulting in improved electrode life.
• Long life gas insulators – fabricated from heat resistant ceramics, ensure durability and uniform gas flow at high power levels.
• Modular construction – permits the use of high-performance hardware with both handheld and machine mount gun variations.
• Adaptable with extensions – allows for internal diameter spraying (e.g., cylinder walls) or for spray applications in hard-to-reach areas.
• Improved hardware accessibility – allows easy replacement and changeover of nozzles, electrodes, and gas insulator assemblies.
• High power levels – extended nozzle and electrode life.
• Higher spray rates – shortens production time.
• Advanced technology – broadens the range of capabilities.
• Ease of operation, maintenance, and installation – ideally suited for general purpose and advanced coating applications
• Operates with – SCR-controlled power supply units
• Historically proven nozzle design – offers economical replacement cost.
• Fully operational with nitrogen as the primary fuel gas – economical operating parameters with high BTU output.
