MODE OF USE 

1 MANUAL FUSION 

Validate it by pressing the 

OK

 key. 

 

Electrofusion voltage in a range of 8 and 44 V are only accepted. 

FUSION VOLTAGE: 

U = 40,0 [V] 

U  =  40.0  V  corresponds  to  the  last  entry;  entry  via  the 
keyboard the desired voltage, if different. 

 

Validate with the 

OK

 key to continue or press 

STOP

 to go back to the previous screen. 

FUSION TIME: 

Tf = 400s Ta=ttºC 

tf  =  400s  corresponds  to  the  last  entry;  entry  via  the 
keyboard the desired time, if different. 

 

Ta  =  tt

̊

C  corresponds  to  the  ambient  temperature  (for  information)  for  correcting  the 

electrofusion time based on this merger. 

 

Validate with the 

OK

 key to continue or press 

STOP

 to go back to the previous screen. 

COOLING TIME: 

tc = 11 [min]

1  MANUAL 

FUSION

 

U=40,0V      I=aaA 
tf =400        R=rrΩ 

The  display  shows  the  electrofusion  voltage,  current  and 
time as well as the fitting resistance. 

 

During the electrofusion cycle the 

FUSION

 LED blinks and the buzzer becomes audible. 

Once terminated the fusion cycle, the display shows the cooling time entered: 

 

COOLING: 

tc = 11 [min] 

Where  tc  =  11:00  is  the  entered  time.  Automatically  starts  the
