The performance standard for air
plasma cutting and gouging

• 1-1/4" (32 mm) Recommended capacity
• 1-1/2" (38 mm) Maximum capacity
• 1-3/4" (44 mm) Severance capacity
• Recommended capacity: metals to
  1-1/4 inch (32 mm) at cutting speeds of
  19 inches per minute (482 mm).
• Maximum capacity: metals to
  1-1/2 inch (38 mm) at cutting speeds
  over 10 inches per minute (250 mm/min).
• Severance capacity: rough cut on metals up to 1-3/4 inch (44 mm) at low speed.

The benefits of Hypertherm technology

• Superior speed and cutting capacity
• Longer parts life
• Lower operating cost
• Higher-quality cuts
• Safety
• Reliability
• Ease of use

The Powermax1650 is the latest addition to
the Powermax G3 series of systems. With
advanced technologies in both power supply
and torch, Hypertherm G3 products cut faster,
and more economically, than any system
available anywhere today. Its Auto-voltage®
circuit provides automatic adjustment to any
input voltage from 200 to 600 volts, 3-phase
(CE 230 to 400 V 3-phase only). A state-of-
the-art, microprocessor-driven architecture
assures optimum system reliability. Add to
this Hypertherm's advanced torch technology,
and easy-to-read controls and features, and
you have the most powerful, advanced, and
reliable plasma cutter money can buy.


Advanced technology gives the
Powermax1650 the power to cut
with greater quality and efficiency.

• 100-amp, 16-kilowatt output provides
  ample power for cutting heavy plate
  cleanly and quickly.
• Auto-voltage input sensing allows you
  to run on voltages from 200 to 600
  volts, 3-phase, with no rewiring.
• CNC/Robotic machine interface is
  standard on all units, allowing for
  automated control and rapid
  mechanized installation.
• New Boost Conditioner™ circuit compensates for input voltage variation.
• Advanced digitally-controlled inverter
  design delivers continuously adjustable constant current output, from 30 to 100
  amps, producing high-quality cuts over
  a wide range of metal thicknesses.
• An active, electronic pilot-arc controller
  for cutting expanded metal or
  grating preserves consumable life.
• A new gouging setting allows for longer
  arc lengths and easier operation,
  plus a metal removal rate in excess
  of 22 pounds per hour (10 kg).
• Wheels are standard on the Powermax1650 and provide improved mobility over
  rough and uneven surfaces.
• Back-lit LED's clearly convey all the information necessary to monitor the
  system status, including an easily
  readable and understandable air
  pressure gauge.
  

The Powermax1650 features Hypertherm's
patented T100 safety trigger torch and
T100M mechanized torch, which produce
outstanding cut performance, reliability and
operator comfort.


• The longest consumable life in the
  industry, and we'll prove it. HyLife®
  electrodes last longer than ordinary
  designs by using the same patented
  technologies developed for advanced
  Hypertherm mechanized systems.
• Dual-threshold pilot circuit significantly
  reduces nozzle wear by boosting pilot
  current precisely when needed.
• Patented nozzle shield technology
  lets you drag the torch on the
  workpiece at full output, without
  damaging consumables, and
  protects the nozzle from molten
  metal spray and double arcing.
• Postflow cooling reduces torch stress.
• Hypertherm's patented Coaxial-assist
  jet design boosts cutting speed as much
  as 20% over conventional designs.
• Hypertherm's ETR (Easy Torch
  Removal) system allows for easy
  switching between hand and machine
  torches, while providing a radical
  integrated approach to strain
  relief designed for durability.
• Hypertherm's patented safety trigger
  protects against accidental starts.
  Safety interlocks deactivate the torch
  when the consumable parts are removed,
  using a durable mechanical contact.
• No breakable ceramic parts.
• Patented "blow-back" technology
  provides a pilot arc without excessive
  high-frequency interference.
• Consumables for gouging, extended-
  nozzle cutting, pipe saddle cutting
  and other applications.
  Most consumables compatible with
  existing G3 systems, resulting in
  fewer SKU's.

The Powermax1650 is designed for heavy
use and very harsh conditions.

• Mechanical and electrical designs
  are validated through aggressive,
  accelerated testing.
• Fan-on-demand feature minimizes dust ingestion.
• Chemically cross-linked torch cable
  jacket provides improved resistance
  to molten spray and cut-through.
• CSA/NRTL and CE certifications comply
  with the highest safety standards.
• IP23CS compliance means resistance
  to rain damage.
• The Powermax1650 is backed by Hypertherm's full three-year power
  supply warranty and one-year torch
  warranty. No parts excluded.
  Examine competitive policies closely.
