Weighted effective value of acceleration
The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration has been measured
against standard test procedures and can be used by way of comparison with
another device. The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can also
be used as a preliminary evaluation of the exposure.
Attention: The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can differ
during operation from the indicated value, dependent on the manner in which
the device is used. Dependent upon the actual conditions of use (periodic duty)
it may be necessary to establish safety precautions for the protection of the
operator.

2. Preparations for use

2.1. Electrical connection
WARNING WARNING
Ensure that the mains voltage is correct! Before connecting the electric
socket welder, check whether the voltage given on the rating plate corresponds
to the mains voltage. On building sites, in a wet environment, indoors and
outdoors or under similar installation conditions, only operate the electrofusion
welder on the mains with a fault current protection switch (FI switch) which
interrupts the power supply as soon as the leakage current to earth exceeds
30 mA for 200 ms.
3. Operation
3.1. Description of process
In the electric sleeve welding process (heater coil welding), the joint is completed
with the sleeve overlapping the end of the pipe. In the process, the joint surfaces
are electrically heated to welding temperature by the resistance wires (heater
coil) arranged in the sleeve, and welded accordingly. The welding unit delivers
the necessary power supply for the type of electrical welding sleeve used. As
soon as the necessary amount of heat has been conducted to the welding
point, the unit switches off automatically. The electric welding sleeve, which
contracts on heating, generates the necessary applied pressure on the joint
surfaces. To super wise a successful weld, a spot indicator on the sleeve changes
colour or an indicator pin appears (Pay attention to the manufacturer's information
of the electric welding sleeve!).
3.2. Preparations for welding
The manufacturer information for pipes or electrofusion sockets must be
observed! The ends of the pipe must be cut off square and fl at. This is done
with a REMS RAS pipe cutter (see 1.2.). In addition, the ends of the pipe should
be chamfered to facilitate insertion into the sleeve. The REMS RAG pipe
chamfering unit is used for this process (see 1.2.). Immediately before welding,
the ends of the pipe should be stripped to at least the insertion depth (e.g.with
a scraper). The pipe surfaces should be cleaned with non-adherent paper or
a nonfraying cloth and spirit or industrial alcohol. Do not remove the moulding
261001
from the protective packing until immediately before installation. The welding
151615
surfaces must not be touched again before welding takes place Insert the pipe

ends into the electrofusion socket up to the stop.

290200 Insert sleeve plugs into the receptacles of the electric welding sleeve. Plug
connecting lead of the electric sleeve welding unit to the mains. Press red
292110
rocker switch „Power on /off" (1) to I. The „Power on /off" (1) indicator lamp in
292210
the rocker switch lights up. The unit tests itsef. All three control lamps light up
140119
briefl y and a beep sounds. The unit mea sures the resistance of the connected
electric welding sleeve. Once the unit recognizes the electric welding sleeve,
the yellow indicator lamp „Action" (2) lights up. Make sure that the pipe ends
are still in position. The welding process is initiated by pressing the rocker
switch „Start" (3). A beep sounds and the yellow "Action" control lamp (2) fl ashes.
40 – 160 mm
The required welding voltage will be automatically set by the unit according to
0 – 40°C (32 °F– 104 °F)
the size of the electric welding sleeve. The device switches off automatically
after approx. 1.5 min. welding time. The green "OK" control lamp (4) lights up
230 V~ and a beep sounds. If the weld is defective the "Error" control lamp (5) lights
≤ 1150 W up and a beep sounds.
50 Hz
After completion of the welding process, move red rocker switch „Power on /
II, (all-insulated)
off" (1) to 0. Remove sleeve plugs.

of the welding joints with water, cold air or similar! Do not move welding joints
until they have completely cooled down. For ratings, see the manufac turer's

4. Maintenance
4.4 m (173.2")
1.9 m (74.8")
Notwithstanding the maintenance described below, it is recommended to send
in the power tool to an authorised REMS contract customer service workshop
for inspection and periodic testing of electrical devices at least once a year. In
1.4 kg (3.1 lb)
Germany, such periodic testing of electrical devices should be performed in
accordance with DIN VDE 0701-0702 and also prescribed for mobile electrical
equipment according to the accident prevention rules DGUV, regulation 3
L = ≤ 70 dB(A)
pA
"Electrical Systems and Equipment". In addition, the respective national safety
K = 3 dB
provisions, rules and regulations valid for the application site must be considered
and observed.
≤ 2.5 m/s²
4.1. Maintenance
K = 1.5 m/s²
Pull out the mains plug before maintenance work!
Clean the electrofusion welder regularly, especially when it has not been in use
for a long time. The lines of the REMS EMSG 160 must be checked for damage
before every welding process. Store electrofusion welder in a frost-free location.
Clean plastic parts (e.g. housing) only with REMS CleanM machine cleaner
(Art. No. 140119) or a mild soap and a damp cloth. Do not use household
cleaners These often contain chemicals which can damage the plastic parts.
Never use petrol, turpentine, thinner or similar products for cleaning.
Make sure that liquids never get onto or inside the electrofusion welder. Never
immerse the electrofusion welder in liquid.
4.2. Inspection/Repair
Pull out the mains plug before carrying out maintenance or repair work!
This work may only be performed by qualifi ed personnel.
The REMS EMSG 160 device is fully maintenance-free.
