  Fiber Optic Installation - Condux© Fiber Optic Cable Puller
 



 

Fiber Optic Puller: The Fiber Optic Cable Puller from Condux sets new standards for safe, accurate pulling of fiber optic cables. Only the Condux puller can offer load cell torque input for the most accurate tension measuring available. Unlike most hydraulic measuring systems, this system is not affected by changes in oil temperature, component age and power source. That means the Condux Fiber Optic Cable Puller does not need to be recalibrated under different weather conditions.

These pullers consist of a 30" (762 mm) diameter capstan, hydraulic motor, variable-speed foot control, manual flow control valve for adjusting maximum speed and a manually adjustable pressure relief valve for adjusting the ultimate pull tension. A footage counter is also included.

The Condux Fiber Optic Cable Puller features an optional electronic tension control system with adjustable digital load limits and a load cell tension measuring device. The electronic tension control system directly measures the rotational torque at the motor, thereby indicating actual cable pulling forces. The load limits are coupled to an audible alarm and automatic puller shutoff with load holding. The control box is powered by a 12 volt DC input to run off a vehicle battery or the supplied battery pack.

Also available is a 4" (102 mm) strip chart recorder incorporated into the electronic control box for a permanent record of the cable pull.

Capstans: Condux offers the widest selection of capstans available to meet all kinds of pulling configurations. These bayonet style capstans are offered in 12-inch (305 mm), 30-inch (762 mm), 42-inch (1,067 mm) and 50-inch (1,270 mm) diameters for a standard 2 7/16-inch (62 mm) diameter bayonet style shaft.  
 
 
 

Remote Mounting Stand: For fiber optic cable pulling applications that demand flexibility in setup, the Remote Mounting Stand allows positioning of the cable puller well away from the power source. Easy to set up, the unit is both sturdy and compact. Features 2 1/2" (64 mm) square mount to accommodate the Condux Fiber Optic Cable Puller.
 
 
 
 
Hitch Mount: Hitch Mounts are a fast, easy way to mount the Fiber Optic Cable Puller when a trailer or remote mounting stand are not available. The Hitch Mount attaches directly into a typical 2" (51 mm) square Reese-type receiver and the cable puller mounts in a 21/2" (64 mm) square fixture. An adjustable jack is included for added stability and height adjustment. Pulling loads must not exceed 800 lbs. (3,559 N).
 
 
 
 

Slip Clutch Capstan: Slip Clutch Capstans from Condux are designed to mount directly on a bayonet-style winch drive shaft. A factory preset torque limiter prevents pulling tensions from exceeding 600 pounds (2,670 N) ± 10% (60 lbs. or 267 N). If the preset load is reached, the capstan will "slip" and discontinue rotating.

High-strength aluminum and steel construction ensures product durability and cable protection.

The capstan is factory calibrated to 600 lbs. (2,670 N) but can be calibrated to different loads from 300 to 1,000 lbs. (1,334 to 4,448 N).

The capstan is designed for use with a 2 7/16" (62 mm) diameter, AT&T specification bayonet style power take-off (PTO) shaft.

 
 
 
 

Hydraulic Power Pack: These portable power sources are matched perfectly to the power requirements of the Condux Fiber Optic Cable Puller and the Fiber Optic Cable Blower. Power source is a 5.5 HP (4.1 kW) Honda (gas), 9 HP (6.7 kW) Honda (gas), or a 16 HP (11.9 kW) Briggs & Stratton V-Twin Vanguard (gas) engine. Features electric start, large capacity hydraulic cooler, quick disconnects, low oil shut-off and 16” (406 mm) diameter pneumatic tires.
