21、s design and installation features 4.1 Arc plasma torch systems 4.1.1 General requirements See IEC 60519-1. 4.1.2 Electric circuit See IEC 60519-1, Clause 6. In addition, 6.4.1 of IEC 60519-1 applies to the complete installation. 4.1.3 Direct current arc power supply The following specific requireme

22、nts apply to systems with d.c. arc power supply. 4.1.3.1 Power supply grounding One pole (positive or negative, depending on the torch polarity), on the d.c. side of the arc power supply, shall be grounded using a separated earth from the main one of the system, so as to avoid possible leakage curre

23、nts towards electrical circuits such as those used for the torch control. 4.1.3.2 Connection of the power supply to the torch When the torch is off, the cables on the d.c. side shall be grounded through an earth grounding switch, so as to safely handle the torch. A specific procedure shall be perfor

24、med before the arc ignition, through a manual locking/unlocking device (generally operated with safety keys), authorizing in particular the main breaker to be online and the earth grounding switch to be in the off position. Moreover, a final clearance key may be used by the operator to start the ign

25、ition sequence. This procedure shall meet the regulations in force in the country where the equipment is to be installed. 4.1.4 Torch sockets, plugs and connection cables See IEC 60519-1, Clause 8. 4.1.5 Torch An arc plasma torch of any design has the following characteristic features: a high temper

26、ature gas, high voltage (in general) and liquid cooling (generally water). Consequently, the design and construction shall satisfy the following criteria for safe operation: a) electrical features: permanent electrical contact, during operation, between parts designed to be at the same voltage, incl

27、uding the clamping of electrodes and pieces to be earth grounded, to avoid overheating; for a high voltage torch, automatic shut down of the torch in case the leakage current through the torch body excesses 10 mA; permanent electrical insulation between pieces to be brought to different voltages (an

28、d specifically between the electrodes), so that no unintended breakdown can occur under normal operating conditions; b) cooling liquid features: 5 DD IEC/TS 60519-5:2008 cooling liquid resistivity and torch circuit designed to maintain, during operation, the required insulation between pieces to be

29、brought to different voltages, and specifically the electrodes; in case of electrode break through (accidental or normal wear), the phenomenon shall remain under control firstly through the electrode material and/or design, secondly by its detection to shut down the torch. 4.1.6 Cooling circuit The

30、following specific requirements apply to the cooling utilities: a) mechanical features: the cooling liquid hoses of the torch, fixed or hand operated, shall have a sufficient length, flexibility and appropriate radius of curvature (if any), so as to be facing the stresses generated by the cooling li

31、quid high pressure and to allow handling of the particular hand operated torch; taking into account the high pressure necessary to obtain the specified mass flow rate in the hoses, their mechanical strength shall not be appreciably affected by accidental or steady state exposure to hot particles (ho

32、t material from a furnace) or thermal heating from the torch itself or from hot material coming out from the process; if the direction of the cooling liquid flow is important, it shall be indicated by arrows and/or colour codes on the connecting fittings of the torch and hoses. Non-interchangeable c

33、ouplers shall be used; the torch cooling liquid hoses, pipes and fittings shall remain liquid tight in the event of liquid hammer or blocking during operation at the specified mass flow rate, taking into account also the effects of heat on the hoses, also possibly due to radiation and ultra violet r

34、adiation; flexing at the coupling of the cooling liquid inlets and outlets to the torch shall be minimized as far as possible at the torch body and the couplings be provided at least with a basic insulation to reduce the possibility of electrical breakdown within the torch body; b) electrical featur

35、es: for the high-voltage torch, the hoses shall be made of insulated material, with length defined to limit the leakage current to a value below 10 mA; the torch shall be electrically shut down when the cooling circuit is disconnected or when the flow rate is below that specified; the operator shall

36、 have access to the cooling circuit control and monitoring devices, to be able to read their indications and take necessary steps when required. 4.1.7 Gas circuit The following specific requirements apply to the gas utilities: a) general features: safety rules for the use of industrial gas in high p

37、ressure tanks, taking account of the work regulations in force in the country where the equipment is to be installed; b) mechanical features: the gas hoses of installations, fixed or hand operated, shall have a sufficient length, flexibility and appropriate radius of curvature (if any), so as to sus

38、tain the constraints generated by the gas high pressure and to allow handling in the case of hand-operated torch; the gas admission hose(s) shall be so designed as to withstand the pressure required to obtain the specified mass flow rate, which shall not be appreciably diminished by accidental or st

39、eady-state exposure to hot particles or hot material. Their resistance to heat and ultra violet radiation under normal operating conditions shall meet the requirements; 6 DD IEC/TS 60519-5:2008 the fastening of gas hose(s) and pipes to the connecting fittings shall withstand the gas pressure occurri

40、ng in the event of circuit blockage; c) electrical features: for the high-voltage torch, the hose(s) shall be made of insulated material, with length defined to limit the leakage current to a value below 10 mA; a safety device shall prevent the ignition of the torch when the gas circuit is shut off

41、or when the minimum mass flow rate specified by the torch manufacturer is not reached; the operator shall have access to the gas circuit control and monitoring devices, to read their indications when desired; d) other features: the compressed gas containers installed close to the place of use of the

42、 plasma torch shall be protected against possible overheating, electric discharges and ejections of incandescent material. Similar precautions shall be taken for portable compressed gas containers. 4.1.8 Ignition device The following specific requirements apply to ignition devices: a) high-frequency

43、 ignition device: protection against high voltage, in agreement with the regulations in force in the country where the equipment is to be installed; b) short-circuit ignition device: in general, a high-pressure hydraulic cylinder is used to move the device. The requirements, as defined for the cooli

46、ly shall be grounded using a separate earth from the main one of the system, so as to avoid possible paths for leakage currents such as those created by the torch control circuits. 4.2.3.2 Connection of the power supply to the torch The following shall be taken into account: 7 DD IEC/TS 60519-5:2008

47、a) the torch shall be enclosed inside a Faraday cage to reduce electromagnetic emission and to prevent the operator to get into contact with the high voltage terminals. An interlock signal shall turn off the high voltage if the torch enclosure is opened; b) the high voltage terminals shall be connec

48、ted to earth to relieve the residual charge potentially stored in the capacitors when the torch enclosure or Faraday cage is opened or if the RF generator is shut down (see 6.2.4 of IEC 60519-1). 4.2.4 Torch sockets, plugs and connection cables The following shall be taken in to account: the electri
