Hydraulic Crimping Tool
The HT45 is a hydraulic crimping tool from CEMBRE designed for the mechanical compression of electrical connectors. The tool delivers a nominal crimping force of 50 kN and is intended for connections on conductors up to 150 mm². The HT45 accepts standard 50 kN dies (M... series) and features a closed, openable head design that can rotate 180° for better access during positioning.
Function and Operation
The HT45 is operated manually by inserting the selected die halves into the upper and lower holders, placing the connector in the dies, and pumping the movable handle to build pressure. The ram advances until the dies meet; the manufacturer recommends continuing pumping until the overpressure valve activates, which is often accompanied by a distinct click. The ram is retracted by activating the pressure release lever, which quickly retracts the dies and releases the crimped connection. The automatic opening of the movable handle allows for one-hand operation, while the other hand can position the connector.
Operating and Maintenance Conditions
- The HT45 is equipped with a max pressure valve for overpressure protection.
- The tool requires regular cleaning to remove dust and dirt from moving parts and pivot points.
- The head may only be rotated when the hydraulic circuit is depressurized.
- Recommended hydraulic oil: ENI ARNICA ISO 32 or SHELL TELLUS S2 V 32 or equivalent.
