Principles of Operation

The ROWELD ROFUSE Basic 48 V2.0 allows welding electrofusion fittings that feature a
bar code. Every fitting is provided with a tag with one or two bar codes on it. The structure of
this code is internationally standardized. The first code, encoding the data on proper welding,
complies with ISO 13950, the second code, if present, encodes component traceability data,
some of which are managed by the welding unit.
The welding parameters can also be entered manually. The microprocessor-controlled
ROWELD ROFUSE Basic 48 V2.0 Welding Unit
• controls and monitors the welding process in a fully automated fashion,
• determines welding duration depending on ambient temperature,
• shows all information on the display in plain text.
All data that are relevant for the weld or for traceability are saved to the internal memory and
can be sent to a USB stick.
Welding data transfer is enabled through an interface of the USB A type, which is compatible
with a USB stick.
Further Optional Accessories
• PC software for downloading and archiving data on PC (for all common Windows operating
systems)
• USB stick for data transfer from the welding unit on the worksite to the printer or PC in your
office (see details at the end of this booklet)
