1. General information
The V0 and V0 HD is unique devices for installing fiber optic directly into a pipe. The V0 HD is consist of
an air block/pipe clamp and a drive wheel that, when combined installs a fiber into an airtight pipe. The
V0 HD has 200 N in pushingforce and speed is 0-110 m/min.
The V0 HD’s built in adjustable clamp force, greatly optimize the pulling stress on the fiber. The
electronic fiber protection system stops the motor within 250 ms. if the wheels are not running
synchronized (like if the fiber hits an obstruction).
The V0 HD comes standard with a digital LCD Meter Display, 2 pcs 18 V, 4 Ah lithium batteries and charger
in a hard side case.
These operating instructions contain a full description of the V0 HD, which have been designed
for the purpose of feeding fiber through a pipe. The pipe must have previously been installed
underground or overhead to receive the fiber optic and must be of su
ffi
cient length on exit to be
received by the machine. The pipe must be of material with su
ffi
cient compression strength for it to be
adequately sealed in the pipe clamps of the machine. The pipe must be airtight up to a pressure of 16
bar. Pipe sizes range from 3 mm-16 mm, while fiber optic fiber(s) range from 0,5 mm-6,5 mm.
The V0 HD consists of an air block/pipe clamp that is made in two halves that clamp together
around the pipe. The pipe clamp holds a seal that the fiber optic fiber is fed through before entering
the pipe. The pipe clamp and fiber seals can be interchanged to accommodate di
ff
erent pipe and
fiber sizes. The pipe is mechanically clamped between the duct clamps at the exit of the pipe clamp,
preventing movement in any direction. Seals conform around the pipe when clamped.
The fiber optic is fed through the pipe by a combined pulling/pushing force. The pulling force is achieved
when pressurized air is fed into the air block and forced into the duct, generating drag on the fiber from
the airflow passing over it. The pushing force is created by engaging the drive wheel system. As the
drive wheel feeds fiber into the pipe, drag force is created by the airflow. The fiber optic floats in the
pipe, minimizing any resistance to being pushed in by the drive wheel.
The use of the V0 HD for operations other than those described in this manual are considered dangerous
and are discouraged. Use of this machine for work other then what is intended, relieves the manufacturer
from any responsibility, civil or penal. The manufacturer's responsibility ceases, and the warranty is
voided when one of the following occurs:
A.
When V0 HD is used for purposes other than what is detailed in this manual.
B.
Tampering and/or modifications carried out without written approval of the manufacturer.
C.
Not using original manufactured replacement parts.
D.
Poor maintenance.
E.
Not using supplied safety devices or equipment.
F.
Connection of this unit to machines and/or parts not produced or authorized in writing by the
manufacturer.
G.
The V0 HD should not be used to install any fiber other than optic fiber specified within the
range outlined in this instruction manual.
Jetting AB is not responsible for injuries incurred as a result of improper use of the V0 HD.
