The Powermax45 XP is a portable 45 A plasma cutting system that you can use for many handheld
and mechanized cutting and gouging applications. The system’s automatic gas and
automatic voltage features make it easy to set up and use even if you have limited plasma cutting
experience.
With the Powermax45 XP you can:
Use air or nitrogen to cut electrically
conductive metals such as mild steel,
stainless steel, and aluminum
Cut thicknesses up to 16 mm (5/8 inch)
Pierce thicknesses up to 12 mm (1/2 inch)
Sever thicknesses up to 29 mm (1-1/8 inch)
Use 2 different gouging processes for a wide
range of gouging applications: Maximum
Control gouging (26 A – 45 A) and Precision
gouging (10 A – 25 A)
Mark metal surfaces using air or argon
Use F5 to cut stainless steel
Disable the Duramax Lock hand and machine
torches without turning OFF the power supply
using the torch-disable switch
Quickly switch between torches using the
FastConnect™ system (quick-disconnect)
A plasma system’s cutting power is determined more by its wattage output than by its amperage
output. The rated output for this system is:
10 A – 45 A maximum output current
145 VDC maximum rated output voltage
6.5 kW cutting power
To determine the cutting power in watts (W), multiply the maximum output amperage (A) by the
maximum rated output voltage (VDC):
45 A × 145 VDC = 6,525 W (6.5 kW)
