OMAC P240 Hydraulic Puller
The OMAC P240 is a hydraulic puller rated to 240 kN for stringing overhead transmission lines.
Description
The OMAC P240 is a hydraulic puller that pulls one rope in stringing operations on overhead transmission lines. It delivers a maximum pull of 240 kN at 2.5 km/h. At its top speed of 5 km/h it delivers 130 kN.
The machine has one pair of multi-grooved steel bull-wheels, each Ø800 mm with 10 grooves, suited to stringing one steel rope. It accepts ropes up to 32 mm in diameter and joints up to 80 mm. A reelwinder takes a 1900 mm diameter reel and includes an automatic ropewinder.
Power comes from a water-cooled diesel engine rated at 380 hp (280 kW), with a 24 V electric plant. A heat exchanger cools the oil in the hydraulic circuit.
The operator works from a control panel with a built-in DEG 4.0 electronic instrument, which has a 7″ graphic colour display and a USB port. The P240 uses a maintenance-free load cell reading system and has an electronic instrument by-pass. A pull force setting device holds the pre-set force even at zero speed, and a negative hydraulic brake provides safety braking.
As standard, the P240 sits on a rigid-axle chassis with a manual brake and a detachable drawbar for low-speed towing on the job site. It also has hydraulic front and back stabilisers, attachments for anchoring and lifting, and a manual rope clamp. The machine measures 5.10 m long, 2.50 m wide and 3.00 m high, and weighs 9900 kg without rope.
