1 Safety
1.1 Dangers
FRIAMAT
®
fusion units have been designed using
state of the art technology and are designed accord ing to recognised safety regulations and fitt ed with
appropriate protective equipment. In addition
FRIAMAT
®
fusion units have been submitted to
extensive tests in line with the German law for
equipment safety. Functionality and safety of
FRIAMAT
®
fusion units are tested before they are
supplied to the customer. However, incorrect use or
abuse of the equipment will lead to dangers with
regard to:
- the health of the user,
- your FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit or other material
goods of the operator,
- the efficient operation of your FRIAMAT
®
fusion
unit.
Everybody involved with operating, servicing and
maintaining your FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit must:
- be qualified accordingly and
- carefully observe these instructions.
This is about YOUR safety!
1.2 Safety hints and tips
These operating instructions use the following
SYMBOLS with WARNING NOTES:
DANGER!
Warns of impending danger!
Non-compliance with this instruction can result in
severe material damage or personal injury.
WARNING!
Warns of a dangerous situation!
Non-compliance with this instruction can result in
moderate material damage or personal injury.

IMPORTANT!
Indicates user advice and other useful information!
1.3 Designated equipment use
The FRIAMAT
®
geo print fusion unit serves ex clu -
sive ly for the fusion of
- component parts from the FRIALEN
®
Geo pro-
duct range as well as
- FRIALEN
®
safety fittings up to d75 with pressure
pipes made of HD-PE.
Your FRIAMAT
®
geo print can also be used to
process fittings up to d75 by other manufactures
as long as these are provided by the manufacturer
with a barcode 2/5 interleaved according to ANSI
HM 10.8M-1983 and to ISO 13950/03.2007.
The designated use also includes observation of:
- all the advice in these operating instructions, as
well as
- the guidelines by DVGW Standards, DVS, UVV
and local directives.
IMPORTANT!
Any other use is not in line with designated use!
FRIATEC AG does not accept liability for damage
caused by adverse use:
- Modifications and alterations are not permitted
for safety reasons.
- FRIAMAT
®
fusion units may be opened only by
electrical specialists.
- When carrying out fusions using FRIAMAT®fusion
units with broken lead seals will result in all claims
for warranty and liability being null and void.
Examples of adverse use:
- Use as battery charger.
- Use as power supply for heaters of any type.
6
1.4 Sources of danger
- Replace damaged mains lead and extension
cables immediately.
- Do not remove or disable safety devices.
- Rectify known faults immediately.
- Do not leave your FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit un at tend -
ed.
- Keep away from flammable liquids/gases.
- Do not operate in EX environment.
1.5 Authorised users
Only trained personnel may work using your
FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit. The user is responsible for
third parties in the work area. The user must:
- make accessible the operating instructions to the
operator and
- ensure that he or she has read and understood
them.
1.6 Dangers from electric power
- Do not use any damaged connecting cables.
- Check connection cable for any damage.
- Pull out the plug prior to any maintenance or
service tasks!
- Allow any service and repairs to be carried out
only at authorised service stations!
- Connect fusion units of the FRIAMAT
®
range only
to supply voltage as given on type plate.
DANGER!
Distribution points on the construction site:
observe regulation on circuit breakers!
Outdoors (on construction sites) receptacles must
be fitted with fault-current circuit breakers. When
using generators, the DVGW worksheet GW308 and
the VDE 0100 Part 728 need to be observed. The
required generator nominal output depends on the
output required by the largest fitting to be used, on
connection conditions, ambient conditions and the
actual generator type (its control characteristics). As
the generators from different model ranges often
display very different control characteristics, the
suitability of a generator cannot be guaranteed by
the specified rated output alone.
7
When in doubt (e.g. when purchasing brand new)
contact an authorised service station or call the
FRIATEC service hotline +49 (0) 621 486 1533.
Only use generators working with frequencies within
the 44-66 Hz range.
Start up the generator and leave it running for half a
minute. If necessary adjust off-load voltage and limit
to voltage indicated by the technical data. Gen er a tor (power) safety fuse at least 16 A (slow acting).
WARNING!
Check input voltage of your FRIAMAT®fusion
unit before starting the fusion process. Your
FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit has been designed for
input voltage of 190-250 volt.
When using an extension cable, please ensure sufficient cross section:
- 2.5 mm
2
up to 100 m
Always roll out cable fully before use!
Do not connect any other equipment to the same
generator while fusion is taking place!
At the end of the fusion process, first disconnect the
power cable from the generator and then shut off
the generator.
DANGER!
Danger to life! Never open your FRIAMAT®fusion
unit whilst connected to power supply!
FRIAMAT
®
fusion units may be opened only by
specialist personnel at an authorised service
station! The replacement of a damaged mains
supply line may only be performed by an authorised service station.

1.7 Emissions
The (equivalent) continuous sound pressure level of
all FRIAMAT
®
fusion units is less than 70 db(A).
When working in a quiet environment, the signal
when set to “loud” comes across as very loud. For
this reason it is possible to adjust the signal
(loud/quiet).
1.8 Safety precautions on site
WARNING!
FRIAMAT®fusion units are splash water proofed.
They may however not be immersed in water.
1.9 Signal equipment
FRIAMAT
®
fusion units confirm certain operating
procedures using a signal (1, 2, 3 or 5 signal
sounds). The signals signify the following:
1 signal: reading in of barcode confirmed.
2 signals: fusion process completed.
3 signals: supply voltage too low/too high.
5 signals: warning: error, refer to display!
1.10 Emergencies
In case of an emergency switch off main switch
immediately to the “OFF” position and disconnect
your FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit from the power supply.
FRIAMAT®fusion units can be shut off by:
- Activation of main switch or
- Pulling out the power supply plug.
2 Basic settings
2.1 Design/Parts
All electronic parts of your FRIAMAT
®
fusion unit are
kept in a splash water proofed casing. A receptacle
for the fusion and mains cable is situated at the
back. At the top there is an accessory box; at the
right side is the interface box. FRIAMAT
®
fusion units
are designed for a maximum fusion voltage of 48 V.
A safety transformer separates supply and fusion
voltage.
