Welding process
As soon as the SPA 600 is programmed and connected to the hydraulic aggregate / mains as
described, you can start welding.
Please proceed as follows:
Switch on the heating element and heat it up to welding temperature.
Open and close the basic machine two or three times by means of the valve lever of the hydraulic
aggregate.
5.7.1.
Drag pressure measurement
When the pressure is > 2 bar, the SPA switches from basic menu to drag
pressure
measurement.
Slowly press the valve lever until the slide of the basic machine is closed. The
drag pressure must be determined properly since a too high
pressure on small pipe diameters leads to incorrect joining forces.
Release the valve lever.
Drag pressure must be at least 3 bar!
