agru EF 110-B User’s Manual

if it is clear by other means that the pipe-fitting joint which is still warm 
is not subjected to an external force. This is not recommended, though, 
because the system will assess as faulty a joint with canceled cooling. 
While the joint might still be in order, its documentation will not.

Important

 In  a  welding  operation  with  inside  balloon,  the  cooling  time 

must never be cancelled/aborted

. The new joint cools down 

with  full  pressure  inside  the  balloon.  If  the  pressure  were 
released  too  soon,  an  unwanted  bead  would  form  inside  the 
components. Therefore, the welder can switch the system back 
to the enter-bar-code screen (Display 3) only when the cooling 
time has been waited out. To switch back, press START/SET 
or STOP/RESET-Taste (which exceptionally are equivalent in 
this case). This signifies the proper conclusion of the welding 
process, and, therefore, only now the screen asks whether the 
pressure in the balloon should be released. Answer this ques-
tion by pressing START/SET.

4.7  Aborted Welding Process

All  welding-relevant  data  are  constantly  monitored  while  the  welding 
process is running. If one or more of the parameters are out of tolerance 
and the machine cannot adjust them, the welding process is aborted after 
a given period of time.

The error that made the welding abort is displayed on the screen (see 
Display 13).

Info

 If one or more errors occurs rather frequently, contact customer 

service. It may be possible to correct the error on site without 
further trouble, or at least to identify its cause.

Type of Error

Description

a. Data Input

Input Error

Error while entering data with the alphanumeric and cursor keys.

Code Error

Error while reading data from a bar code or an RFID card.

b. System and Conditions

System Error

The welding system has to be disconnected immediately from both the 
power supply and the electrofusion fitting. The auto-test has detected 
an error in the system. The welder must no longer be operated and 
has to be sent to an approved shop for check and repair.

Clock Error

The internal clock of the machine is defective; re-set the clock in the 
Configuration Menu.

Unit to Service

The recommended next service date for the welder is overdue. The 
service due message has to be acknowledged by pressing the START/
SET key. Send the welding system to the manufacturer or an 
approved service point for service and check-up.

Power Supply Failure at Last 
Welding

The last welding is incomplete. The welding unit was disconnected 
from the power supply voltage while it was in progress. To go on using 
the unit, this error has to be acknowledged by pressing the STOP/
RESET key.

Ambient Temperature high

Outside temperature outside the range from – 10°C to + 45°C.

Ambient Temperature low

Outside temperature outside the range from – 10°C to + 45°C.

Insufficient Voltage

The input voltage to the control unit is < 185 V; the welding process, if 
started, will likely be flawed and should not be started or repeated if 
the error appears during welding..

Excessive Voltage

The input voltage to the control unit is > 280 V; the welding process, if 
started, will likely be flawed and should not be started or repeated if 
the error appears during welding.
