Specifications

The Lincoln Electric Pro Cut 25 Plasma Cutter operates with a current range of 12-25 Amps DC. It features automatic reconnection for 115V or 230V single-phase input power, offering flexible power options. At 115V, it provides 25 A at a 35% duty cycle or 20 A at a 60% duty cycle. When connected to 230V, the unit delivers 25 A at a 60% duty cycle or 20 A at a 100% duty cycle. This plasma cutter can sever electrically conductive materials up to 3/8 inch (9.5 mm) thick. It requires an air pressure of 65 PSI with a flow rate of 240 CFH. Weighing only 29.5 lbs (13.4 kg) with the torch cable, its compact dimensions are 10.2 inches in height, 6.3 inches in width, and 16.1 inches in length.

Key Features

The Pro Cut 25 Plasma Cutter is equipped with a patented PCT 20 torch, featuring Vortech™ technology consumables designed for enhanced cutting speed, precision, and extended life. For operator safety, it includes Parts-in-Place™ torch safety features that prevent operation unless all components are correctly seated. The automatic re-connection feature simplifies setup by adjusting to either 115V or 230V input power without manual intervention. Its back-lit LED system provides clear status indicators, eliminating guesswork during operation. This unit can also be powered by most Lincoln engine-driven welders, offering greater portability for on-site jobs.
