MACHINE'S DESCRIPTION

Elektra Light is a multipurpose low voltage (8÷48V) electrofusion machine capable of fusing
any brand of HDPE, PP, PP-R couplers available in the market for the transport of gas, water,
and other fluids under pressure, up to OD 125mm.
The Elektra Light can be used in two different manners:
-With the barcode reader, in which case the machine automatically sets the
welding parameters by reading off the information contained on the bar code,
according to the ISO13950 Standard, whether the operator reads the bar code
with the barcode reader or inserts the characters underneath it, manually.
-Without the barcode reader, in which case the operator must set in the voltage
and the welding time, as per the instructions given by the manufacturer of the
coupler.
The Elektra Light has a memory capacity of up to 325 welding cycles, downloadable to a
USB flash drive or a serial printer (via adapter DB9M-USB on request).
