- The ‘Fibre Installation Gun’- F.I.G. is a lightweight, battery-powered compact blowing gun that features simple to use ‘no-crush’ fibre loading mechanism that prevents cable damage and wastage . The pistol-shaped installation gun has a anti-buckle feature to prevent fibre damage whilst blowing. It provides air delivery performance, allowing it to be used with a small air compressor at 10 bar. Its technology enables hands-free operation. The LCD screen on the top of the F.I.G. displays speed, distance, pushing force and battery life. Adjustable push control and interchangeable adaptor plates enable the F.I.G. to be quickly and easily adapted to operate on different microfibre sizes and microduct. The F.I.G. is available with optional extra tripod and harness accessories for both overhead and underground applications. The FIG operates and functions like any battery powered cordless drill. Is uses a standard 12V lithium Bosch cordless drill battery and the handle is identical to a typical cordless drill. The Trigger / button engages the electric drive motor in the same way a cordless drill would via a speed controller. Once the trigger is releasing it will disconnect the power to the motor controller and stop driving the electric motor. All products suitably packaged in recyclable materials and clearly labelled with Product Code and Description where possible. Packed individually.
