PNEUMATIC OPENFRAME TOOL®DANIELSMANUFACTURINGCORPORATIONHX23 BENCH CRIMPPRESSCompatibility with ExistingCrimp DiesThe HX23 accommodates allM22520/5-XX military and Daniels “Y”series crimp dies.This affords total utilization ofexisting dies and total interchangeabilitywith M22520/5-01 (Daniels HX4)hand tool frames.Full Cycle ControlFull die closure is assured onevery crimp. The internal cycle controlnetwork will not allow the tool toopen until complete closure is attained.A simple procedure is available toopen the tool in cases where acomplete cycle cannot be effected.A secure method is provided toprevent unauthorized personnel fromdefeating the cycle control system.Hands Free OperationThere are no awkward levers ormechanisms used to open or close thecrimp dies. These operations waste timeand distract the operator’s attention.When the tool is in the normalcondition, the crimp dies are fully openwhere contact assemblies can easilybe inserted. A touch of the foot valvereleases the dies to a gripping position(spring pressure only). When theoperator is satisfied that the contactassembly is positioned correctly,another actuation of the same footvalve completes the crimp and quicklyreturns the die to open position.Operator Safety FeaturesThe HX23 is equipped with atransparent guard which affords theprotection, but does not restrict vision.The Hands Free Operation systemallows the operator to position thecontact assembly while the die isunder spring pressure only.The operator is then free to let thetool hold the contact assembly duringthe crimp cycle while the operator’shands and fingers are a safe distancefrom the crimping die.The HX23 foot valve assembly isconstructed with a protective shroudto prevent accidental actuation. Foroperation the operator places theirfoot under the shroud to depressthe pedal.Full Pneumatic OperationStandard clean, dry shop air atthe recommended pressure is all thatis required to operate the HX23 tool.There are no electrical or hydraulicrequirements.SPECIFICATIONSCOMPONENTS SIZE WEIGHTTOOL FRAME (in) 4° x 6 x 16 11° LBS(LESS BENCH MOUNT) (cm) 11.4 x 15.2 x 40.6 5.2 KGFOOT VALVE (in) 4 x 5 x 13° 6 LBS(cm) 10.2 x 12.7 x 34.3 2.7 KGCABLE 9 Feet – 2.7 Meters N/AAIR REQUIREMENTS80-95 PSI (5.4-6.4 BAR)SAFETY FEATURES:• 2 Step Crimping Process• Emergency Stop SwitchBENCH MOUNT AND FOOT PRESS INCLUDEDPAGE 49© COPYRIGHT 2003 DANIELS MANUFACTURING CORPORATION
