Operation
Welding with the Geberit
electrofusion machine ESG
light
The Geberit electrofusion machine
ESG light is equipped with an
automatic mechanism which
prevents a double weld when a
coupling connection cable is
connected.
The required welding time is
adjusted automatically in accordance
with the ambient temperature.
Prerequisite
–
Pipes, fittings and welding joints are dry
and free of dirt.
–
Pipes and fittings are prepared in
accordance with the installation manual
for Geberit electrofusion sleeve
couplings.
–
Pipe surfaces are prepared in
accordance with the installation manual
for Geberit electrofusion tape for anchor
point.
WARNING
Danger of fatal electric shock
▶ Do not weld wet or water-filled
pipes.
▶ An isolation transformer must
be included in the circuit when
carrying out electrofusion work
in damp areas.
▶ Allow the Geberit electrofusion
sleeve coupling or Geberit
electrofusion tape to cool
down before conducting a
secondary welding procedure.

CAUTION
Risk of injury from burns
▶ Do not touch the electrofusion
sleeve coupling or electro-
fusion tape, plug contacts and
pipe during the welding
procedure or during the
cooling-down phase.
ATTENTION
Leaking connection caused by faulty
welding
▶ The pipe to be welded must be kept in
a tension-free position during the
welding procedure and the cooling-
down phase.
▶ Air draughts through the pipe interior
must be avoided.
