Plasson Polymatic Plus USB Electrofusion Control Boxes (DN16-800)
Plasson Polymatic Plus USB Electrofusion Control Boxes (DN16-800)
The Polymatic Plus is a very powerful electrofusion control unit for welding PE pipes with electrofusion fittings. The Polymatic Plus is a workhorse that delivers ease and speed without breaking the bank.
This cutting-edge electrofusion processor is designed around PLASSON’s SmartFuse System. Whether making a single electrofusion or taking on a big project, this electrofusion processor is up to the task and will deliver the highest quality electrofusion welds.
Operators will have peace of mind with the Polymatic Plus as the control box executes and fully monitors each and every electrofusion weld. The Polymatic Plus is rugged, reliable, and conforms to industry standards for electrofusion equipment. Features include Bluetooth and GPS capability, an easy-to-use barcode scanner, safe and reliable connectors, data recording, USB interface and compatibility with the SmartFuse mobile app.

Format: A Smoother Process
By using Plasson SmartFuse fittings and PF control boxes there is no need for special barcode reading EF control boxes, or reference to temperature compensation tables, virtually eliminating the margin for error in this area, (provided the process is being carried out within a temperature range of -10° and +45°C). However, if users wish to have a control box capable of welding Plasson SmartFuse Fitting as well as manual or barcode fitting, Plasson has a control box that can operate both – The Polymatic Plus.
A Single Weld Time
According to the latest Standards, all electrofusion fittings must be able to produce welds at a temperature range of between -10° and +45°C, resulting in a variety of designs available to the market.
The Plasson SmartFuse Electrofusion system ensures that the energy supplied will weld fittings from a minimum -10° to +45°C at one standard single weld time. Fittings are tested within this range and are supplied with ApprovalMark International (AMI) Licence.
No Temperature Compensation
Other fittings being supplied to the Australasian market may meet ISO/EN standards but may require temperature compensation creating a more complex lengthier process that is more susceptible to human error. Where welding time is dependent on the ambient temperature, this requires a special barcode reading EF control box to sense the temperature, read the fittings barcode and adjust the weld time accordingly. Any additional work required relies on the legibility of the barcode and as assumption that the point at which the temperature is read does not widely differ from the temperature at the pipe/fitting assembly.
Without a special barcode reading EF control box, the weld operator must estimate the temperature at the joint site, read the temperature compensation tables correctly (if supplied and legible) and enter the new weld time into the box before the weld can proceed. This process relies on operator skill/judgment, is open to mistakes and may need a complex QC form to record the weld conditions used.
Pipe welding in direct sunlight
Pipe temperature may and often does exceed 45°C (up to 65°C). Welding must not be done in such situations. Many welds require sun shading to ensure pipe temperature does not exceed 45°C.
