PRODUCT INFORMATION Ref.: I.P. 436/E Date: 23 October 2014 Pag.: 1 of 5 18V Cordless Hydraulic Crimping Tool B1300-C Cembre presents B1300-C, the lunch box shaped C head tool in its new generation of cordless hydraulic tools, which heralds a significantly advantageous evolution from current models. General features: Crimping force [kn] Dimensions [mm] Length Height Width Jaw opening length [mm] Weight with battery [kg] 132 406 239 102.5 25 6.5 Table 1: Dimensions The B1300-C tool is supplied with: Battery and shoulder strap Spare battery code CB 1840L Battery charger code ASC 30-36 (country specific, see below) Plastic carrying case suitable for storing the tool and die sets, code VAL P41 Born of the renowned type crimping tool, the B1300-C is suitable for a wide range of connectors up to 400 mm 2 using all semicircular slotted dies common to Cembre 130 kn tools. New Li-Ion 18 V 4 Ah batteries offer a higher capacity than 14.4 V 3 Ah, while greater crimping speed and crimping force result from a revitalised hydraulic system with double speed action: a more rapid approach of the dies to the connector then a more controlled, powerful speed for crimping.
The crimping head can rotate through 180 for ease of operation while a large 25 mm jaw opening allows easier introduction/ removal of compression terminations and joints. A maximum pressure sensor and security valve together assure greater precision and repeatability of the pressure cycle and double the provision for operator safety. The OLED display provides essential real time tool operating information data including: Minimum set force and momentary force reached expressed in kn, confirms correct operation. Minimum set force and momentary force reached expressed in US Ton, confirms correct operation. Minimum set pressure and momentary pressure reached expressed in bar, confirm correct operation. Minimum set pressure and momentary pressure reached expressed in PSI, confirm correct operation. Battery charge level. No. of cycles performed. No. of cycles before scheduled recommended maintenance.

Table 2: OLED displays Designed with improved handling characteristics, B1300-C is easily manageable during the crimping process and, by the use of bi-component plastics, has a shell with high resistance to wear and damage. Rubber grip inserts, low noise and minimal vibration aid operator comfort while additional convenience and safety are provided by LED lighting of the working area. Crimping cycle data (up to 200,000 events) is automatically stored on a memory card for transfer to PC by USB interface, located under the battery.
