EC / ET manual hydraulic presses and cable cutters (up to 400 mm² Cu, cutting up to Ø 45 mm)
Country: Spain · Model: EC / ET
EC manual hydraulic presses crimp copper lugs up to 400 mm² with a force of 130 kN, and the ET-45 cable cutter cuts wires and cables up to 45 mm in diameter. They are used when mechanical pliers are no longer enough and no mains power is nearby, that is on a cable or overhead line route, at a substation or in a workshop.

Description
Inside each tool is a plunger pump that forces oil into the working cylinder as the handle is pumped. The two-speed system first brings the dies together quickly on the workpiece and then slowly brings the force to full. The safety valve limits the maximum force and releases the pressure by itself once it is reached, so a crimp is not left unfinished and the operator is protected. The latching EC-5 is light and strong, with a rotating head and an external manual pressure release valve made of special steel. The EC-13U with a universal head that turns through 180° and opens quickly performs all types of crimping, including deep stepped crimping for bimetal lugs. The EC-13C with a C-type head seats on the workpiece faster, and its self-locking handle leaves no pressure in the system after work. On the ET-45 cable cutter the snap-action head with two knives and a guide turns through 270°, the feed is two-stage, and after maximum pressure the knife returns automatically.
How to choose
The main question is the section and material of the lug. The EC-5 with HD5 dies covers copper up to 240 mm² and aluminium up to 150 mm², and with CDC5 it crimps clamps up to 70 mm². For copper up to 400 mm², aluminium up to 300 mm² and bimetal up to 240 mm² the EC-13U with HD13 dies is used; the EC-13C with the same force is chosen for fast placing of the head. In serial installation the battery EBC-13U and EBC-13C relieve the hand, and for 630 mm² there is the CH-20P hydraulic head with a pump.

FAQ
What is the maximum force of the EC-13U manual hydraulic press?
An audible safety valve limits the force to 130 kN. This is enough for copper lugs up to 400 mm² and aluminium lugs up to 300 mm².
What can crimp a 150 mm² aluminium lug without electric power?
The light EC-5 with HD5 dies is suitable; it gives a hexagonal crimp of aluminium up to 150 mm² and copper up to 240 mm².
What does the ET-45 manual hydraulic cable cutter cut?
The ET-45 cuts ACSR conductors, copper and aluminium cables, steel wire and rope up to 45 mm in diameter. The tool is supplied in a case, like the presses of the series.
Will the EC-13U manual press crimp a tap clamp?
Yes, with CD13 dies it works with clamps with a main of up to 185 mm² of copper or 300 mm² of aluminium and a tap of up to 70 mm².
