1.1) Compliance of use
-
The complete unit (pump & cutting head) is specifically designed for the safe cutting of
Copper and Aluminum cable where the absence of voltage cannot be guaranteed.
- The
B68M-P18-KV-RC3
pump is designed to activate hydraulic heads for cutting conductor
cables or for crimping electrical cable lugs.
- The dielectric oil used within the pump has special properties which insulate the pump from
the cutting head in the event that a live cable is accidentally cut.
- The innovative radio remote control is specifically designed to allow the operator to control
and operate the pump at a safe distance from the cutting operation.
- The complete unit (pump & cutting head) is fitted with a unique patented system which stops
the pumps operation when a sensor on the cutting head signals that the cutting blades have
fully travelled. At this point the LED indicator and buzzer on the pump notify the operator of
the successful completion of the cutting operation. For this reason, each pump is paired to its
specific cutting head only and it must be considered as a complete unit.
For the proper operation of all the safety features in the complete unit, each cutting
head is paired to its associated pump. This procedure is completed by Cembre prior
to delivery. Due to this, the use of non-paired pumps and cutting heads is not recom-
mended and should be avoided. In order to trace all of the components of each complete unit,
such as: pump, cutting heads, radio control, the user should check the same identification
number reported on each item.
