2.8 Fusion process
2.8.1 Welding phase
During the fusion process, the display shows the information
concerning the output voltage, the remaining fusion time and the
applied energy.
t = 0020s
Vo= 39.7V
E = 003.1kJ
N 150
The machine adjusts the fusion time according to the external
temperature and barcode information. Therefore the final fusion
time values might be slightly different from the nominal values,
captured from the barcode.
The fusion process can be stopped at any time by pushing
STOP/ESC. Then the fusion process immediately stops and an
error message occurs (see ‘Error Messages’ chapter).
Stopping the on-going fusion process will result in a suspicious
welding: the responsibility will be in charge of the operator.
When the fusion operation is going to finish, a repeated acoustic
signal alerts you that the process is near to complete. As soon as
the fusion process is correctly concluded, the display shows briefly
the information concerning the real fusion time, the average voltage
and the total energy applied to the jointing. These data will be part
of the welding protocol stored into the internal memory.
