Multiple Welds

In Primary mode the EF1 can 

simultaneously weld up to three 

UPP™ fittings, provided that:
•   The sum of the resistance values 

(circled number on UPP™ 

fittings) does not exceed 10.

•   The UPP™ fittings are 

connected to the EF1 in series 

using the bridging leads provided 

(see photos A & B). 

You can ensure that you have 

connected the fittings correctly and 

that the welds are successful by 

checking that all of the connected 

fittings get warm and that all of the 

indicator pins are exposed at the 

end of the welding time. Fusion 

fittings with X or no marking may 

NOT be welded in series.

Maintenance

•   There are no user serviceable parts inside the EF1 welding unit.
•   Damaged or defective products should be returned to an approved service agent for 

repair or calibration.

•    Welding unit and cables should be checked for damage or defects and parts repaired 

or replaced prior to each use.

•   The welding unit can be cleaned using a soft brush or cloth.
•   After use, carefully coil cables and store in the compartments provided in the carry 

case.

•   Electrical Safety Testing “Portable Appliance Test” (PAT) should be carried out in 

accordance with local legislation.

•   It is recommended that the welder is returned to Franklin Fueling Systems on a 

regular basis, at around 3 year intervals, for checking and recalibrating.
