Range BEAT-Tr
Edition: January 2016
Revision: No. 3 INTRODUCTION - 5
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The electrofusion units BEAT-Tr and MINI BEAT-Tr are designed to carry out
polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) pipe/fittings joints through electrofusion fittings
with a range of 8 V to 48 V (BEAT-Tr) and 10 V to 42 V (MINI BEAT-Tr) electrofusion
voltage. Refer to Chapter 6: TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS of this User Manual.
The electrofusion unit receives the relevant data of the fitting via the bar code system and
also by operator’s manual introduction: VOLTAGE and TIME from the fitting manufacturer.
Take into account that some fitting manufacturers provide different fusion times
according to ambient temperature. Refer to the fitting manufacturer’s instructions.
Both electrofusion units are provided with traceability, so it allows the data entry such as
operator’s ID, job order ID, auxiliary data and fitting traceability. The unit stores all this
data in its memory for further treatment.
These models can be optionally supplied as AR Series (High Performance) with the same
original technical specifications, except for having a higher duty cycle. The AR series is
especially indicated for ongoing electrofusion of large size fittings and for very hot
climates.
