Heater
Heater is not explosion proof. Operation of
heater in an explosive atmosphere without
necessary safety precautions will result in
serious injury or death.
If operating in an explosive atmosphere, heater should be brought
up to temperature in a safe environment, then unplugged before
entering the explosive 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 an 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 fusion heater adapters are
available for all fusion applications.
NOTICE: The heater should never be used without 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 every fusion joint.
Heater Adapters
Heater adapters are available for a variety of fittings.
NOTICE: The heater should never be used without heater
adapters installed.
Insulated Heater Sling
The heater should always be stored in the insulated heater sling
or blanket for protection of the operator and to minimize heat loss
and risk of mechanical damage. When placing the heater in the
sling, allow the handle to remain outside the sling.
