Key Features

• Durable PE100 Material:Resistant to corrosion, impact and long-term outdoor use.
• Strong Fusion Bond:Embedded copper wire produces uniform heat, ensuring a leak-proof connection.
• Suitable for gas and potable water HDPE systems
• Integrated copper heating coils for consistent fusion
• Compatibility: Compatible with EN 1555 / EN 12201 HDPE pipes and most electrofusion control units in the market.

Applications

Electrofusion repair saddles are widely used in:

• Municipal water pipeline networks
• Gas distribution systems
• Industrial water and chemical systems
• Mining and slurry pipelines
• Agricultural irrigation projects
• Underground utility distribution

The Electrofusion Repair Saddle is designed for quick, safe and permanent repairs on damaged HDPE pipelines. It attaches directly to the pipe surface and forms a strong and reliable bond through controlled electrofusion. This type of repair saddle is commonly used in gas distribution, water supply networks, mining, and industrial pipeline maintenance.

Installation Guide

1. Clean & Prepare the Pipe Surface

• Mark the repair area.
• Use a rotary scraper to remove the oxidized layer.
• Clean the surface with approved PE wipes.

2. Position the Repair Saddle

• Place the saddle directly over the damaged pipe area.
• Ensure the fusion zone fully covers the defect.
• Secure it with alignment clamps to avoid movement.

3. Connect Fusion Terminals

• Attach the electrofusion machine leads to the saddle terminals.
• Scan or enter the fitting’s barcode parameters.

4. Start the Electrofusion Process

• Begin the fusion cycle.
• Do not move or disturb the pipe during heating.
• Watch fusion indicators (if included) for correct expansion.

5. Allow Full Cooling

• Keep clamps on until the recommended cooling time is complete.
• Do not pressure test, backfill, or stress the pipe before cooling.

6. Inspect & Test

• Check the weld visually.
• Perform a pressure test according to project standards.
• If no leaks or deformation, return the pipeline to service.

• The Electrofusion Fitting Series is designed for connecting HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) pipes through a reliable andleak-proof electrofusion process.
• These fittings use embedded heating elements that, when energized, melt the HDPE surface and create a strong, homogeneous joint between pipes or other fittings.
• Engineered for water, gas, and industrial piping systems, this series offers superior performance, easy installation, andlong-term durability — ensuring system integrity even under demanding operating conditions.
• Using advanced electrofusion technology, it ensures a leak-free, long-lasting joint that meets international standards for safety and performance.Electrofusion of HDPE uses electrofusion fittings which have small copper wires coiled around the inside.
• Electric current is then run through those wires using an electrofusion processor in turn melting the HDPE on the inside of the fitting and the outside of the pipe.
