6.  For automatic welding units, always check the welding parameters on the barcode 

(SEE FIG.5).

 

For manual welding please use the time and voltage indicated on the barcode. If the welding 

unit does not perform welding time compensation according to ambient temperature, use the 

parameters in the label affixed on the bag 

(SEE FIG.6).

 

After completing the welding process, verify that no material has leaked out of the joint between 

the pipe and the fitting. Wait for the cooling time as indicated on the fitting barcode before rough 
handling.

7.  At the end of the cooling time it is possible to start the pressure test with the Pressure Sensor. In 

the following table 

(TABLE 1)

 you find the recommended waiting time in MINUTES before starting
