Identifying the Product
Every product is identified by a name plate. It shows the
most important specifications, the model, the serial number,
and the manufacturer. The first two digits of the serial num-
ber represent the year of manufacture.

Understanding the Product
The SPG 2.0 is a data logger designed to generate reports
for butt-welding machines for plastics, which has basically
three functions:
• Walking the operator through the welding process;
• Monitoring all the relevant parameters during the weld-
ing process;
• Generating a protocol recording the welding process.
The product can be used both with on-site and with in-shop
machines and it can in principle be connected to any weld-
ing machine. Upon entering the type of plastic, the pipe
diameter, and the wall thickness, the unit computes all the
parameters that are critical for the welding process, tak-
ing into account the selected welding machine. The entire
welding process is automatically saved to a report and can
be exported in different ways for purposes of analysis and
further processing.
The required pipe jointing and traceability data can be en-
tered using the cursor keys (see first Info in Sect. 4.1), a RFID
chip card or a bar code scanner.
For various applications, the SPG 2.0 can be specifically con-
figured in the Configuration Menu (see section 4.2).
