6. MAINTENANCE
6.1.1
Installation of the gas line
The responsibility for maintenance is the responsibility of the owner of the equipment.
Maintenance should be performed at least once a year by a competent and qualified person.
After 2 years or 400 welds, a control and calibration must be done by Pandrol
(The number of welds made is automatically counted in each HFP. The error indicator
flashes at start-up when the HFP has made more than 350 welds in order to be able to
schedule the maintenance)
After 1 year or 200 welds, a check of the pressure gauges and
preheating must be done by Pandrol or by an authorized company.
Oxidation from preheating the welds wears down the torch nose. The torch should be replaced when the nose is
bent or nibbled. The possible tripping of one of the circuit breakers protecting the electrical circuits is visible through
the window for checking the status of these circuit breakers, which you only need to raise to reset the faulty circuit
breaker. A second trip of the circuit breaker following a reset requires the device be sent to an approved repair
workshop.
In the event of a fault signaled by the PLC, the power supply must be cut for 30 seconds, then the HFP switched on
again. If the fault persists, the device should be sent to an authorized repair workshop.
