Cutting Cables Using Portable Radio Controlled Hydraulic Cutting Units from Cembre

New Li-Ion 18V 7Ah batteries used in the hydraulic pump provide high capacity while improved operating speed results from a revitalised hydraulic system with double speed action, and 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 cutting operation.

For this reason, each pump is paired to its specific cutting head only and it must be considered as a complete unit.

A manual pressure release button is installed 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.

The unit features an OLED display to provide essential real time tool operating information including:

• Operating mode selection (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
• Number of cycles performed
• Number of cycles before scheduled recommended maintenance
• Motor temperature
• Operating command (radio or manual)

The unit has a secondary operating trigger which can be selected through the OLED display in the case that it is needed – the unit is 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.

Designed with improved handling characteristics for convenience and manageability, the Cembre B68M-P18-KV-RC3 cutting unit has a fibreglass-plastic shell with high resistance to wear and damage.
