The KNIPEX MultiCrimp PV makes light work of solar jobs says Jason Cunningham, Product & Technical Support at KNIPEX.
As the demand for solar energy continues to grow, so too does the need for efficient and reliable tools that help electrical contractors deliver clean, consistent results. When you’re installing new systems or servicing existing ones, having the right crimping tool to hand can make a noticeable difference in speed, safety and quality. The KNIPEX MultiCrimp PV has been developed specifically for the photovoltaic sector and offers a clever, all-in-one solution for working with the most common PV connection types.
Supplied with three interchangeable crimping dies, it’s ready to handle a wide range of tasks straight out of the box. For MC4 and MC4 EVO 2 connectors, the standard for many PV systems, the 97 39 42 die covers conductor sizes of 4 and 6 mm². The 97 39 08 is designed for insulated and uninsulated wire ferrules from 0.25 to 6 mm², while the 97 39 13 die handles uninsulated cable connectors from 0.5 to 10 mm². Each die can be swapped out quickly without additional tools, making changeovers on site fast and hassle-free. The MultiCrimp PV also offers room to expand; additional dies can be added to tailor the tool to individual requirements.
The MultiCrimp PV is consistent and comfortable. A ratchet mechanism ensures reliable crimp quality time after time and the ergonomic, multi-component handles provide a firm, comfortable grip for day-long use. It also comes with a practical belt clip to keep it within reach.
For contractors and installers working with solar systems, the MultiCrimp PV offers flexibility, reliability and lasting performance making it a dependable companion for a fast-moving and demanding sector.
