agru EF 110-B User’s Manual
The welding process in monitored in its entirety and saved to a welding
report. All welding reports can then be downloaded to a USB stick as
an abstract or extended report in the PDF format or in the DataWork
database management format.
Using the menus, the machine can be customized to the application at
hand (see Sect. 4.3, Configuring the Machine).

3.3 Welding Process Overview
The welding system allows welding electrofusion fittings that feature a
bar code. Every e-fitting is provided with a tag with one or two bar codes
on it. The structure of this code is internationally standardized. The first
code, encoding the data on proper welding, complies with ISO 13950,
the second code, if present, encoding the component traceability data,
complies with ISO 12176. The welding parameters can also be entered
manually.
When using an inside balloon in the pipe, beadless welding is possible.
To automate a beadless welding process, a special code with 34 digits,
which builds on the abovementioned 24-digit code^s, has to be read from
a RFID transponder card or entered manually. The parameters related
to balloon pressure can also be entered manually.
The welding system is microprocessor-controlled and:-
•
controls and monitors the welding process in a fully automated way,
when the welder starts it after component preparation,
•
determines welding duration depending on ambient temperature,
•
shows all information on the display in plain text.
The welding process is performed as follows:
•
All welding parameters and traceability data for the components
are read from a RFID transponder card or a bar code or entered
