4.2. Brief description of the important features of the unit
- The hydraulic unit incorporates an automatic retraction which returns the piston into its
starting position when the maximum force is reached.
- The unit is equipped with a special brake which stops the forward motion of the piston/dies
when the trigger (Pos.-No. 1) is released.
- The EK15/50 and EK15/50G have a pre-crimping device which clamps the connectors first
before actually crimping it. This allows the installer to interrupt the crimping cycle to re-
position the connector, respectively make necessary corrections.
- Enable wide spread Klauke dies, which are used in the following tools:
13 kN range: K50 + K51 and for the
35 kN range: HK4
- The crimping head can be smoothly turned by 360° around the longitudinal axis in order to
gain better access to tight corners and other difficult working areas. (Picture 6+7 Pos. D)
- The tool is very light weight and provides a good handling through an ergonomic design.
