Component replacement plan
This plan lists the components and their recommended replacement schedule after 500 hours of accumulated arc hours
of use (1 year for hand torches). See Table 2 – Mechanized torch parts replacement schedule on page 14 for the
component replacement schedule.
Hypertherm believes that using arc hours is the most accurate method of monitoring the proper time to replace a
component. We have provided a guide that will help you to estimate an arc-hours-per-year model, based on the average
number of 8-hour shifts during which the system operates on an average work day.
.
Finally, we want you to understand that the component replacement plan is a starting point. Your operating environment
and cutting applications can accelerate the wear rate of some components within your plasma system. We have
highlighted the most likely environmental and application factors that can lead to accelerated component wear.
The following tables and checklists are provided so you can record relevant information about your system and its
replacement requirements:
 Part numbers for MAXPRO200 cables, hoses, and leads on page 20
 System voltage on page 21
 Coolant requirements on page 21
Component replacement schedule
The component replacement schedule found in – Mechanized torch parts replacement scheduleTable 2– Mechanized
torch parts replacement schedule is based on the cumulative arc hours of the cutting system, for mechanized torches,
and is calendar based for hand held torches. The hand held torch maintenance schedule is based on a 500 arc hours per
year model. Use table 2 to determine when components should be replaced to maintain the system's optimal
performance and to minimize unplanned downtime during the life of the system.
You can estimate the system's cumulative cutting time using the following guides:
Mechanized torches
Hand held torches
Average number of shifts per day Estimated number of arc hours per year
1 shift 500 arc hours/year
2 shifts 1000 arc hours/year
3 shifts 1500 arc hours/year
Average number of shifts per day Estimated time for maintenance
1 shift Every twelve months
2 shifts Every six months
3 shifts Every four months
