The
Rionfuser Electrofusion Processor
is a reliable, easy-to-use, rugged tool designed to with-
stand the conditions found at construction sites around the world. With proper care, your processor
will perform for many years.
Here are some general guidelines that should be followed to extend the life of your processor and
keep it in warranty.
The enclosure is very durable and shock resistant; however, do not subject the processor to any
unnecessary shocks or stresses including but not limited to:
• Tossing the processor into or out of a vehicle
• Dropping the processor
• Dragging the processor by the cables leads
Subscribe to the recommended calibration service offered by WATTS (See page 13).
The
Rionfuser Electrofusion Processor
will provide the proper outputs for a complete fusion
based on the inputs received from the operator.
Always verify that the voltage and time displayed on the LCD display are the same as the values
specified by the fitting manufacturer. In many cases these values are printed on a tag affixed to the
fitting, however, this is not always the case.
Service Recommendations
Customer Maintenance
There are a few simple services that can be performed by the user that will help ensure proper
operation:
1. Keep the area around the Temperature Sensor clean and free of obstructions by wiping with
a soft dry towel. This is a critical area to keep clean, as dirt will affect the ambient temperature
reading. If this sensor is reading incorrectly, fusion times may be affected and the integrity of
the fusion may be compromised.
2. Make sure the fitting adapters are clean and properly attached to the Output Cable. Failure to
do so may result in an improper output applied to the fitting.
3. Make sure power sources are appropriately rated and operating at the manufacturer's
specified capacity.
Refer to page 30 for instructions and guidelines to use when choosing a
power source.
Proper care of the processor and output cable will greatly extend the life of your
Rionfuser Electro-
fusion Processor
and will help reduce service times and costs.
Customer Responsibilities
Failure to verify that the fusion
information is correct before
starting a fusion could result in
significant damage to personal
property, personal injury, and/or
death.
