2.2 Brief description of the important
features of the unit
Safety features:
The unit is equipped with a special brake which in-
stantly stops the forward motion of the piston/dies
when the trigger is released.
A white LED illuminates the working space after ac-
tivating the trigger. It automatically switches off 10
sec. after releasing the trigger. This feature can be
deactivated (see page V)
Hydraulic Pressure Check, HPC for short, monitors
the oil pressure in the tool’s oil circuit, hence ensur-
ing a continuous, consistent press quality.
During each pressing cycle, the achieved pressing
pressure is determined by a pressure sensor and
compared to the required minimum value. An au-
dible warning signal sounds if the achieved pres-
sure differs from the specified working pressure.
The user will know immediately that the fi tting must
be checked and repressed or replaced as required.
Functional features:
The unit is equipped with a double piston pump
which is characterized by a rapid approach of the
rollers towards the jaws and power speeds.
The hydraulic unit incorporates an automatic retrac-
tion which returns the piston into its starting position
when the maximum operating pressure is reached.
A manual retraction allows the user to return the pis-
ton into the starting position in case of an incorrect
compression.
