1. Description of product
This chapter gives important basic information about the product and its prescribed use.
All technical details of the machine are put together as a general arrangement.
1.1. Usage and purpose-oriented use
The WIDOS 3511 is exclusively designed for the heating element socket welding of pipes and
fittings out of PE, PP and PVDF with an outside diameter range from 20 mm to 125 mm.
At heating element socket welding, pipe and fitting are welded overlapping.
The heated tool is adjusted to the size of the fitting in a way that a joining pressure is built up at
joining.
Heating element socket joints up to 50 mm pipe diameter can be performed manually.
For diameters as from 63 mm, the use of a welding device is necessary due to the high joining
pressure.
The motion for socket welding is controlled by means of a transport wheel and a toothed rack.
All use of this machine going beyond is not purpose oriented.
The machine is only to be used in a technically perfect condition, as well as purpose oriented,
safety- and danger-conscious in compliance with the working instructions and the relevant
safety regulations (especially the regulations for the prevention of accidents).
The described plastic welding machine may only be operated, maintained and repaired by
persons trained and informed about the dangers.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any damages caused by inexpert handling or
operation.
For personal injuries, material and immaterial damages resulting herefrom, only the user is
responsible!
Prescribed use also means:
following all indications in these working instructions and
performing the inspection and maintenance works.
1.2. Safety measures
In case of wrong use, wrong operation or wrong maintenance, the machine itself or products
standing nearby can be damaged or destroyed.
Persons being in the endangered area may be injured.
Therefore these working instructions have to be thoroughly read and the corresponding safety
advices must be necessarily adhered to.
1.3. Conformity
The machine corresponds in its construction to the valid recommendations of the European
Community as well as to the European standard specifications.
The development, manufacturing and mounting of the machine were made very carefully.
