1. General information
The TriggAIR is a unique handheld device for installing fiber optic directly into a pipe. The TriggAIR consist
of an air block with max air pressure of 16 bar and duct clamps for 5,0- and 7,0-mm ducts. The unit’s 12
v battery operated drive wheel will combined with air install fibers from 0,5-3,0 mm into an airtight duct,
at speeds of 0 to 0-150 m/min. With the build in digital LCD display, displaying speed and distances and
the manometer you always have full control of the process. The start button can be locked in the speed
you like for “automatic drive”. Reverse function helps if you need to pull out a fibre.
The TriggAIR is operated without tools. The built-in adjustable clamp force greatly optimizes the pulling
stress on the fiber. The unit have an adjustable clutch for fibre security. This fiber protection system
prevent damages on the fiber if the fiber hits an obstruction.
The TriggAIR is supplied in hard side case including the TriggAIR, box for seals, 2 pcs battery and charger.
As option for the TriggAIR you can get a tripod and reel arm kit for pre terminated fibre.
These operating instructions contain a full description of the TriggAIR, which have been designed for the
purpose of feeding fiber through a duct. The duct must have previously been installed underground or
overhead to receive the fiber cable and must be of enough length on exit to be received by the machine.
The duct must be of material with enough compression strength for it to be adequately sealed in the
duct clamps of the machine. The duct must be airtight up to a pressure of 16bar. Duct sizes range from
5 mm-7 mm, while fiber optic fiber(s) range from 0,5 mm-3 mm.
The TriggAIR consists of an air block/duct clamp that is made in two halves that clamp together around
the duct. The duct clamp holds a seal that the fiber optic fibre is feed through before entering the
duct. The duct clamp can be used for both 5,0- and 7,0-mm ducts. Fiber seals can be interchanged to
accommodate different fibre sizes. The duct is mechanically clamped between the duct clamps at the
exit of the duct clamp, preventing movement in any direction. Seal is placed around the fibre when
clamped.
The fibre cable is fed through the duct by a combined pulling/pushing force. The pulling force is achieved
when pressurized air is fed into the air block and forced into the duct, generating drag on the fibre from
the airflow passing over it. The pushing force is created by engaging the drive wheel system. As the drive
wheel feeds the fibre cable into the duct, drag force is created by the airflow. The fibre cable flies in the
duct, minimizing any resistance to being pushed in by the drive wheel.
The use of the TriggAIR for operations other than those described in this manual are considered
dangerous and are discouraged. Use of this machine for work other then what is intended, relieves the
manufacturer from any responsibility, civil or penal. The manufacturer's responsibility ceases, and the
warranty is voided when one of the following occurs:
A.
When TriggAIR is used for purposes other than what is detailed in this manual.
B.
Tampering and/or modifications carried out without written approval of the manufacturer.
C.
Not using original manufactured replacement parts.
D.
Poor maintenance.
E.
Not using supplied safety devices or equipment.
F.
Connection of this unit to machines and/or parts not produced or authorized in writing by the
manufacturer.
G.
The TriggAIR should not be used to install any fiber other than fiber optic fiber specified within
the range outlined in this instruction manual.
Jetting AB is not responsible for injuries incurred as a result of improper use of the TriggAIR.
