Intelligent Crimping SystemTechnology includes a pressure sensor that monitors the crimping force of each crimp and provides the operator a visual and audible alert if the force is below specifications. State of the art 18V lithium ion (Li-ion) battery provides 70% more cycles per charge and faster cycle times. Automatic Retraction Stop (ARS) which retracts the ram just enough to get ready for the next cycle saving time and energy. LED light provides the operator with the battery charge and tool maintenance status. Two-stage hydraulic system provides fast advance and power speeds, saving time. Forward handle position improves tool balance. One trigger controls all tool functions. Crimping head rotates 350°. Tools automatically retract when the crimping cycle is complete. Overmolded tacky grip areas make gripping the tool easier and morecomfortable. LED work light illuminates dark work areas. Greenlee battery-powered crimping tools now use bio-degradable oil. Smart chargers control the charging current, charging voltage and battery temperature to maximize battery life. Utilizes four indentors to make the crimp. Flip-top style uses a pull pin to open head for easy removal from the connector. U. S. Patents #6,206,663 and #6,065,326. Available with 120V, 12V or 230V battery charger or with 120V or 230V corded adapter in place of batteries and charger
