Description Of The Tool Indication - Klauke EK 425-L Instruction Manual

Instruction Manual
EK 425-L
The tool is equipped with a microprocessor which shuts off the motor automatically after the crimp is completed,
indicates service intervals and low battery charges and performs internal checks sending out acoustical and optical
warning signals in case of a detected fault.
The new tools feature an integrated pressure sensor which automatically identifi es the achieved crimping force du-
ring every crimping operation. If a deviation from the set operation pressure is identifi ed, an acoustic signal sounds
and a red display fl ashes (tab. 1).
Through an optional USB adapter a report can be generated at the end of a working session at a PC documenting
the proper function of the tool.
Power saving function through motor switch-off.
The compact ergonomically formed design consists of 2 components. The grip area is rubber coated and therefore
2K
slip resistent. The housing design is optimized in respect of the center of gravity which improves the handling and
supports fatique-proof working.
All tool functions can be controlled by one trigger. This results in an easy handling and a better grip compared to a
two button operation.
Li-Ion batteries do neither have a memory effect nor self discharge. Even after long periods of non operation the tool
is always ready to operate. In addition we see a lower power weight ratio with 50% more capacity and shorter char-
ging cycles compared to NiMH batteries.
The oil used in our tool is highly biologically degradeable and not hazardous to Water and has been rewarded
„The Blue Angel". The oil is suitable for low temperatures and has excellent lubrication characteristics.

3.3 Description of the tool indication

See Tab. 1.
Prior to operating the unit the charging level of the battery (pic. 1.5) should have been tested. A low charging level
can be detected by the fl ashing of the LED (pic. 1.3) for 20 s at the end of a crimping cycle.
