General Product & Safety Information
1.1
Product Information
The CRD220SS Tube Expander is designed to expand flexible tubing up to a durometer
of Shore A85 (Shore D35), including any non-metallic braided materials.
The device only works with tubing that has an inside diameter of 7/16” to 3/4”.
The standard jaw sets are universal and are designed to be used with an inside diameter
range of 7/16” to 3/4". Other jaw sets are available that are optimized for a specific size
(see accessories page at www.cleanroomdevices.com or call Clean Room Devices, Inc.).
The device features simple yet reliable tool-less jaw adjustment, which can be made by
the operator.
The device features a calibrate-able pressure gage conveniently mounted for addition
process control.
1.2
Safety Information
The device has a foot pedal actuated air cylinder that actuates the expanding jaws. The
unit is not intended to expand anything other than flexible tubing.
Avoid placing your fingers between the upper jaw block and the air cylinder
mounting bracket while operating unit, sufficient pressure exists to cause personal
injury.
The air supply should be free of moisture/contaminates, and set at 80-130 psi. It is
recommended that a suitable filter/regulator be installed onto the supply line prior to the
unit to preserve the life expectancy of the air regulator and air cylinder.
