5. IDENTIFICATION
These instructions have been made to support the users of the cable blowing machine MiniFlow RAPID. The
machine type can be identified by the type plate on the machine. The type plate provides information about
serial number, year of production and name and address of the manufacturer.
It is recommended to read this instruction carefully and become familiar with the functionality and maintenance
of the cable blowing machine before use.
6. APPLICATION
The cable blowing machine MiniFlow RAPID is constructed for blowing fiber optic cables into microducts.
Always use adaptor plates designed for the actual diameter of cable and duct. The adaptor plates are marked
with the size for which they are intended.
It is very important to use the correct adaptor plates. If the adaptor plates do not fit the duct, dangerous
situations may occur.
7. MOUNTING
Make sure to place the machine on a stable foundation and to fasten it to withstand the forces, which occur
during use. With the MiniFlow RAPID it is possible to purchase a trolley, which gives the machines a stable
foundation during use.
8. SUPPLY OF COMPRESSED AIR AND HYDRAULIC
PRESSURE
The volume and quality of compressed air is one of the most important parameters in order to achieve good
results when blowing fiber optic cables. The minimum capacity needed is 1,000 l/min. The compressed air must
be filtered, cooled and dried to avoid moisture and dirt in the microduct.
NOTE: Do not use compressed air directly from a compressor unit, since the air can be very hot
and can damage microduct, fiber cable and machinery.
The supply of hydraulic pressure must be 110 bar, 17 l/min. It is recommended to use the
hydraulic power unit that is designed specifically for use with the Fremco cable blowing machines.
