Kerotest Manufacturing – SHANNON & PAF III OPERATORS MANUAL - REV 3
Once you have verified that all measurements and parameters are correct, press the START button to begin
the fusion.
FAILURE TO VERIFY THAT THE FUSION INFORMATION IS CORRECT BEFORE STARTING A FUSION COULD
RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, PERSONAL INJURY, AND/OR DEATH.
See page 29 for instructions on monitoring the progress of a fusion.
Monitoring a Fusion's Progress
Once the START button is pressed the fusion process will begin.
The fusion process begins with a Fitting Resistance Verification. The Kerotest Electrofusion Processor will
display a screen similar to the following:
VERIFYING FUSION
PARAMETERS
When operating in Barcode Fusion Mode, this resistance check is to make sure that the actual fitting
connected matches the resistance of the fitting described in the fusion parameters. When operating in an
Alternate Fusion Mode, this resistance check is used to verify that the fitting is still attached. Although many
fittings have similar resistance measurements and this check is NOT fool-proof, it will help to ensure that
the correct fitting is attached.
If equipped with the optional GPS, the processor will next attempt to read the GPS coordinates. A screen
similar to the following will be displayed:
Waiting for GPS Data
STOP TO IGNORE
Once the coordinates are obtained, the fusion will proceed normally. To ignore the GPS data and force the
fusion to begin, press the STOP button.
If the GPS screen is bypassed, NO GPS DATA WILL BE STORED IN THE
PROCESSOR'S MEMORY FOR LATER DOWNLOADS.
