Successful Weld Completion
After pressing START, the Rionfuser™ will begin the weld. After the welding cycle
has completed, another audible beep will sound to indicate that the fusion weld
is complete. If the beeping pattern is an equal, consistent beeping, the joint was
successful. If the beeping pattern is irregular, it indicates that an error has occurred
during the fusion cycle (if an error code is received during fusion, please contact
your local Orion rep for troubleshooting information). Once the joint is completed,
the lead cables can be removed and the process repeated for the next joint.
To download completed fusion data, please see our IOM-OR-RIONFUSE 2128 for
instructions.

Do not stress newly-fused joints until fully cooled to ambient, typ-
ically 10-20 minutes depending on size. Successful weld comple-
tion screen does not eliminate need for system leak testing.
