Hello folks, my trusty ESAB PCM 875, plasma cutter has stopped working today.
I had the same problem a few months ago, but it quickly fixed itself, this time not.
I've air, at the correct pressure going in and the gauge confirms this.
I pull the trigger, I hear the air solenoid click, then nothing comes out the torch, and error message, insufficient air.
However, the torch does swell, a bit, indicating air in the lead to the torch.
New consumables, no consumables, no air coming out of torch.
I guess it's blocked somewhere.
Any ideas please folks.
Thanks, Mat.
It's probably twenty years old, three phase.
