| FAQs -- Fequently Asked Questions |
| >> |
What are the causes of Joint Failures (Couplers or Reducers) ? |
| |
| Improper Scraping of the Pipes |
| Improper Holding & alignment of pipe |
| Improper Re-Rounding of pipe. |
| Machine voltage or fusion time set in Manual Mode is not correct |
| Machine Calibration – Machine gives lesser voltage |
| Excessive scraping of pipe – Too much loose pipe |
| Improper cleaning of the pipes & fitting. |

What will you do if Power goes off after half of fusion time? |
| |
| Stop working on the same Fitting or Joint immediately. Wait for minimum 2 hours to allow complete cooling of the incomplete joint. In case of bigger fittings the cooling time will be high. |
| Repeat the Electrofusion cycle with complete Fusion time as per the fitting. |

Why do you do Re-Rounding of pipes? |
| |
| During jointing of 2 pipes by using EF Coupler, if the pipe cross section shape has become “Elliptical”, then it is necessary to Re-round the pipe. |
| The elliptical shape does not fit correctly in the Coupler socket. Only 2 ends of bigger lobe touch the coupler & there is a gap between the smaller lobe & the coupler, making the joint weak. |
| Re-rounding clamps make the pipe round when it is clamped near the coupler. Thus making the contact area to the maximum. Hence the joint becomes sturdy after electrofusion. |
