Socket Fusion Installation

Preparation

1. Fix heating bushes
Attach the heating bushes on the heating tool. Maximum
two set of bushes can be attached at the same time.

2. Check the Temperature
Once the socket fusion machine is turned on, set the
temperature on the electronic display which must
range between 255°C and 265°C. To ensure correct
temperature, regular calibration is recommended.

3. Clean the heating tools
After checking the temperature, wipe the heater bush
with a clean cloth. This process must be repeated after
each welding.

4. Cut the pipe
Cut the pipe at right angle; if necessary remove burrs
from inside. If necessary cut deformed or damaged
pipe ends of 5 cm.

5. Clean pipe & fitting
Clean the fittings sockets on the inside and the outer
wall of pipe (the presence of dust, grease or other
impurities can affect the fusion quality and lead to weak
jointing).
