Installation (Socket Fusion Welding)

Tools Required

• Socket fusion welding machine (260°C ±10°C)

• Rotary pipe cutter or plastic-specific saw

• Deburring/peeling tool (calibrated for 50mm & 40mm)

• Digital thermometer with surface sensor

• Clean cloth or acetone for cleaning

Step-by-Step Installation

1. Prepare the pipes

   • Cut 50mm and 40mm pipes squarely using rotary cutter

   • Deburr internal/external edges; remove all chips/swarf

   • Clean socket and spigot with anhydrous alcohol or acetone if oily

2. Peel & chamfer pipe ends

   • Use calibrated peeling tool to remove oxidized layer

   • For 50mm: peel to calibration diameter, mark depth with gauge

   • For 40mm: peel to calibration diameter, mark depth with gauge

3. Heat the joint

   • Set fusion tool to 260°C (250–270°C range)

   • Verify temperature with digital thermometer

   • Insert pipe end and fitting socket onto heating bush simultaneously

   • Heating time for 50mm: ~18 seconds

   • Heating time for 40mm: ~12 seconds

4. Join immediately

   • Remove pipe and fitting from heater simultaneously

   • Insert pipe into socket to full depth without rotation

   • Align correctly; hold for adjusting time: 6 seconds

5. Cool naturally

   • Hold joint stationary for cooling time: 4–5 minutes (larger sizes)

   • Do not disturb during cooling

   • Do not pressurize for minimum 1 hour

6. Inspect & test

   • Correct joint shows twin parallel weld beads around circumference

   • Conduct pressure testing per local codes after cooling
