HDPE Butt Fusion

SOP · SOP-60279

  • Version 3

The HDPE Butt Fusion Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is a guide for businesses conducting HDPE butt fusion welding. It gives instructions for safe and efficient operation, helping workers manage the associated risks.

It covers the hazards (electricity, clamps under pressure, hot heater plate, moving parts and manual handling), the PPE to wear, operator training, a pre-operational inspection checklist, the step-by-step operation of the welder and its maintenance.

A hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant, with Y, N and NA for each item, helps confirm the safety measures are in place.
