5.1. Operation of the unit
First you have to connect the universal head via the coupling (Pos. #
5) with the pump unit.
Then select the right adapter (Pos.-No. 4, Chart 1) for the type of
dies you intend to use respectively the cutting blades (Chart 2 left
side) or punch adapter (chart 2 right side). Afterwards the head has
to be opened by unhooking the latch (Pos.-No. 1).
The adapters will be inserted consecutively into the universal head.
Please follow pictures 6-11 vicariously for all adapters and dies.
Please make sure that the locking pins (Pos.-No. 3) are always fully
engaged.
The working cycle is terminated when either the crimping force is
reached or the cable/conductor, DIN rail, threaded rod is cut.
Afterwards a further working cycle can be initiated or the it can be
terminated by opening the latch (Pos.-No. 1) and removing the
connecting material.
Attention
After having terminated the working cycle
and prior to changing the dies/blades the
power switch of the pump has to be locked to
avoid unintended use.
5.1.1 Use of crimping dies
When using the 22 style dies (see picture 2) the retaining clips
(Pos.-# 4) have to be actuated (Picture 2 Pos. E) while the dies will
be inserted consecutively from the side into the head respectively
the adapter.
The 18 style dies are inserted axially into the universal head,
respectively the adapter. The spring must be placed on the opposite
side of the latch.
During the crimping process the connecting material is positioned in
the stationary half of the die whereas the moving part of the die is
approaching the compression point.
After having reached the maximum crimping force the dies return into
the starting position.
5.1.2 Use of cutting dies
Three different types of cutting dies are available. The UC 26 is
optimised on copper and aluminium cables/conductors
≤
26 mm
∅
.
The UC 40 can cut all copper and aluminium cables/conductors
<
40
mm
∅
. The larger cables/conductors show the best results respectively
the least deformations.
Attention
Do only cut copper and aluminium cables/conductors
with UC 26 and UC 40!
For cutting ACSR conductors you must only use the UCACSR cutting
blades.
Attention
Cutting ACSR conductors or steel fortified
cables do always wear safety glasses.
Fractions of reenforced steel conductors can be propelled towards the
operator with high speed and could cause severe injuries.
