Redefining Safety Standards in Underground Power Maintenance
The PICOUP Ultra-safe, electrohydraulic power cable spiking and cutting tool range from PENTA UKI is setting a new standard for safety and simplicity in underground power cable maintenance. Designed without traditional hydraulic hoses, the PICOUP tools safely check the absence of voltage on underground cables without the hazards and complexities associated with explosive cartridges.
Unlike cartridge-driven spikers that rely on explosive charges to deadproof cables, the PICOUP tool employs a hydraulic system that eliminates the risks of unexpected discharge, misfire, and storage hazards, ensuring a safer working environment. The cable is immediately ready for the works after the use of PICOUP.
As the hydraulic system applies consistent, controlled force, it reduces the risks of cable over-damage and unintended electrical discharge. Cartridge-based spikers can apply uneven force, posing serious safety concerns for crews in the field.
Simplified by design, PICOUP’s user-friendly design is easy to learn, promoting safe and efficient usage among team members and its elimination of cartridges, makes preparation faster and reduces the risk of user error. Maintenance becomes effortless to as PICOUP tools bypass the rigorous inspections required for explosive-based spikers and make routine checks and servicing far simpler.
PICOUP Cable Spiking & Cutting Tool In The Field
Kevin Rushton, Managing Director of PENTA UKI said, “The PICOUP Safety Spiking and Cutting Tool is transforming safety in the industry, providing a highly reliable, non-explosive alternative to traditional cartridge-based systems. With safer force application, quieter operation, and streamlined usability, the PICOUP range is making underground cable maintenance not only safer but also more efficient.”
The unique PICOUP 400 from PENTA provides a combined “Spike & Cut” capability up to 140mm in a single-tool operation – exclusively stocked by Thorne & Derrick.
