Manual Fusion
**Pre-configured CF or PVDF
fittings are always preferred and should be used whenever possible.
Manual Fusions require additional care and attentiveness on the part of the operator to ensure
the appropriate fusion parameters are entered. For this reason, Manual Fusions should ONLY be
performed by a fully trained operator using specifications provided by the fitting's manufacturer.
NOTE:
The Rionfuser Electrofusion Processor provides outputs for a complete fusion based on the
parameters manually entered by the operator. Remember to enter all parameters
EXACTLY
as
specified by the fitting manufacturer.
