How to operate a PPR welding machine to avoid malfunctions

Jun 22, 2026

1. Pre-start Inspection: Before use, check the power supply, heating plate, and hydraulic oil level for normal operation. Confirm accurate temperature control display, and ensure the matching die head has no coating peeling and is the correct size. Preemptively check for potential hardware problems.

2. Compliance Throughout Operation: Stabilize the temperature within the 253℃-274℃ range. Control the heating time according to the pipe specifications, and strictly prohibit prolonged heating beyond the specified temperature. Clean and dry the pipe welding surfaces beforehand. Do not rotate the pipes or fittings during the connection process, and do not move or subject them to stress during the cooling phase.

3. Proper Post-Use Maintenance: Immediately disconnect the power after operation. After the heating plate has completely cooled, wipe it clean with a dry cloth. Do not use corrosive cleaning agents. Before long-term storage, drain residual oil from the hydraulic lines and place the equipment in a dry, ventilated area to prevent moisture and aging of components.

4. Appropriate Operating Scenarios: For large-diameter pipes (40mm and above), specialized mechanical assistance must be used. Do not apply pressure manually to avoid overloading and damaging the equipment.
