Cembre B450ND-BVE battery crimping tool is an 18.0V cordless hydraulic crimping tool which can be operated with one hand and is balanced for greater control.
B450ND-BVE is suitable for crimping electrical connectors onto conductor cross sections up to 150 sqmm and uses the die sets common to all Cembre 45kN tools and heads.
B450ND-BVE is a new generation of hand-held cordless tools, characterised by a “Bilinear” mechanical design.
The B450ND-BVE battery crimping tool is fitted with a maximum pressure valve and an Li-Ion 18.0V 2.0Ah high power battery which has LED indicators to display the remaining battery charge by pressing the adjacent button.
Weight and balance have been reconfigured to yield improvements in handling and convenience and the more rigid structure of the bi-component plastic body provides greater mechanical protection while its rubber inserts boost operator safety and comfort.
The head rotates by 180º for ease of use within confined spaces and has a robust moulded body which is highly resistance to damage. Additionally the crimping tool is extremely quiet with minimal vibration.. Flashing work lights and a continuous beep indicate to the operator that B450ND-BVE battery crimping tool has reached the working hours at which ordinary maintenance is recommended. It is also a feature that the operating data is stored on a memory card for transfer to PC by USB interface .(SMARTOOL technology).

User Instructions
Preparation
- With the Cembre crimping tool in the rest position and without battery, proceed as follows:
- Select the appropriate Cembre die set for the connector
- Open the latch and release the upper die holder
- Insert one die into the upper die holder and one die into the lower die support
- Close the crimp tool latch
- Insert the conductor in the connector
- Position the connector between the dies and ensure the correct location of the crimp
Die Advancement
- Grip the Cembre tool firmly and comfortably and press operating button to activate the motor pump and advance the lower die. To halt the advancement, release the operating button and the motor will cut out.
- Make sure the dies are exactly positioned on the desired crimp point otherwise re-open dies and reposition the connector.
Compression
- By keeping the operating button pressed, the motor continues to operate: the ram will gradually move forward until the two dies touch. It is recommended to keep operating until the maximum pressure valve is activated and a “click” is heard.
- The motor will continue to operate after the maximum pressure relief valve has activated. No further crimping force is applied, the oil is bypassed and returned to the reservoir.
Release of Dies
- Press the pressure release button, the ram will retract and open the Cembre dies.
Head Rotation
- For ease of operation the tool head can rotate through 180º, allowing the operator to work in the most comfortable position.
- Warning: Do not attempt to rotate the crimp tool head when the hydraulic circuit is pressurised.
Replace of Dies
- To replace the Cembre dies, open the head and extract them from their seats.
Battery Status
- The battery is equipped with LED indicators that indicate the remaining battery life at any time by pressing the adjacent button.
- 4 LEDs illuminated: Fully charged
- 2 LEDs illuminated: 50% capacity
- 1 LED flashing: Minimum charge, replace the battery.
Insertion / Replacement of Battery
- To replace the battery, remove it by pressing the release button, then insert the new battery, sliding it into the guides until it locks.
