SilverPlus electrodes for HPR/HPRXD systems - 1

Compatible with: Quick Set-up SilverPlus is a proven technology that dramatically extends electrode life, significantly reducing operating cost. SilverPlus technology doubles electrode life on average over standard copper by allowing the electrode to burn deeper. For voltage-based torch height controls, the torch‑to‑work distance will decrease as the electrode burns. This may require adjustment of the torch height control’s arc voltage setting.

Head to Head – SilverPlus electrode HyPerformance SilverPlus lasts over 2 times longer than standard electrodes. To maintain torch to work distance The voltage-based height control should be adjusted during the life of a SilverPlus electrode. At the time when you would replace a copper electrode, increase the height control arc voltage setting by 5 volts for the SilverPlus. This will maximize the life of your SilverPlus electrode, while preventing the torch from touching the plate during cutting. For example, if you currently replace a copper electrode every shift, you would now increase...

SilverPlus electrodes for HPR/HPRXD systems - 3

W e used rigorous life tests to benchmark SilverPlus electrodes against our standard electrodes. Shows maximum angle in range Our 20/20 test involves piercing metal and cutting for 20 seconds with 20% programmed ramp down errors. This means that 20% of the time, we purposely committed errors while cutting, such as running off the plate. This test protocol is intended to simulate the actual cutting environment. We ran tests using Hypertherm’s standard HPR oxygen cutting parameters. These procedures were repeated until the electrode no longer functioned. The cut quality ranges, shown in these...
