Overview
Heater
Heater is not explosion proof. Operation of heater
in a hazardous environment without necessary safety
precautions will result in explosion and death.
If operating in a hazardous environment, heater should be brought up
to temperature in a safe environment, then unplugged before entering
the hazardous atmosphere for fusion.
The heater has a green indicator light which will flash on and off.
This indicates that the controller is operating normally. If the green
indicator is not flashing then the controller may not be operating
properly. If this occurs, disconnect power and have the heater
repaired by a McElroy Authorized Service Center.
The heater temperature is controlled by a microprocessor. It has a red
indicator light on the handle at the bottom of the temperature scale.
When the heater is plugged in and preheating the light glows steadily
until the set temperature is reached. The light then goes off and on
slowly as the heater maintains temperature.
The heater body is not coated. Coated butt fusion heater adapters are
available for all butt fusion applications.
NOTICE: The heater should never be used without butt fusion heater
adapters installed.
To prevent a build-up of plastic pipe residue from accumulating on the
heater plates (loss of surface temperature and pipe sticking may result),
the heater plates should be cleaned with a non-synthetic cloth before
and after every fusion joint.

Insulated Heater Stand
The heater should always be stored in the insulated heater stand
or blanket for protection of the operator and to minimize heat loss
and risk of mechanical damage.
