Technical Features
The heart of each Cembre unit is the new portable pump B68M-P18-KV-RC3, battery operated for independent use. Having the inherent strengths of the Cembre 18V tool range including the range of Hydraulic Cable Cutting Tools, the B68M-P18-KV-RC3 is a lightweight high capacity pump equipped with an innovative radio remote control. This is designed specifically for man-hole environments to allow operators to control and operate the pump out of the man-hole at a safe distance.
New Li-Ion 18V 7Ah batteries provide high capacity while improved operating speed results from a revitalised hydraulic system with double speed action. A maximum pressure sensor assures greater precision and repeatability of the pressure cycle, while a security valve doubles the provision for operator safety. The unit is fitted with a patented unique system for stopping the pump when the cutting head sensor signals that its blades have travelled fully.
At this point the LED indicator and buzzer notify the operator of the successful completion of the cable cutting operation. For this reason, each pump is paired to its specific cable cutting head only and it must be considered as a complete unit.
The Cembre unit has a manual pressure release button in case of emergency. Easy access to the oil reservoir is by means of an oil top-up inlet. The innovative remote control function is able to work in man-hole environment where radio communication is normally more complicated.
Cembre B68M-P18-KV-RC3 Features
The unit features an OLED display to provide essential real time tool operating information including:
- Operating mode selection (cable cutting or crimping)
- Release mode selection (Smart release, manual release)
- Minimum set pressure and momentary pressure reached in bar/psi to allow verification of correct operation
- Battery charge level
- No. of cable cutting cycles performed
- No. of cable cutting cycles before scheduled recommended maintenance
- Motor temperature
- Operating command (radio or manual)
The Cembre unit has a secondary operating trigger which can be selected through the OLED display in case of need. Fitted by dielectric oil for operator protection in case of cutting cables that may be accidentally live. Each radio remote control is paired to only its specific pump.
The portable hydraulic cable cutting tool is designed with improved handling characteristics for convenience and manageability – Cembre B68M-P18-KV-RC3 has a fibreglass-plastic shell with high resistance to wear and damage.
