Series TRCU-M1

TRITON™ Control Unit

The TRITON Series TRCU-M1 Control Unit is designed to
convert 110/120 VAC current to DC current and then create
radio frequency (RF) signal. The Control Unit is supplied with
a 10' long GFCI-protected power cord and a 20' long coaxial
Fuser cable. The Control Unit is designed to provide RF signal
to the TRFW Fuser to complete the fusion process. The Control
Unit is self-contained and self-calibrating. The Unit will sense
ambient conditions when powered on and make automatic ad­justments to the joining cycle based on Fuser size and ambient
environmental conditions. The power consumption for fusion is
less than 100 watts.

TRITON operating temperature range:
15° to 140°F (-9° to 60°C)

TRITON storage temperature range:

-20° to 200°F (-28° to 93°C)

Specifications

The system should be plumbed using Watts TRITON Pipe
Fusion Fittings. Each TRITON Fitting incorporates the TRITON
Fuse-Tel™ indicator that extrudes on completion of the join­ing process, providing a visual and tactile indication that the
fusion is complete. The TRITON Pipe Fusion system operates
on 110/120 VAC power and utilizes a 13.56MHz ISM band
frequency in conjunction with a dual susceptor imbedded in the
Fitting to complete the fuse.

Follow all building codes, standards, and regulations when us­ing the TRITON Pipe Fusion system.
