3.3. REMS Akku-Ex-Press Q & E ACC, REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC
(Fig. 8)
Consult and comply with the instructions for installation and fitting of the system's
manufacturer. Slide a Q & E ring of appropriate size onto the pipe. Insert the
expansion head into the pipe and press the expanding head/drive unit against
the pipe. Switch on the drive unit (8). When the expanding head is opened, the
drive unit switches automatically to return and the expanding head is closed
again. Keep holding the inching switch (8) down in the REMS Akku-Ex-Press
Q & E ACC and push the expanding head/drive unit further. Turn the pipe
slightly. Keep repeating the expansion process until the expanding jaws (17)
are slid all the way into the pipe. Release the inching switch (8) after every
expanding process in the REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC, wait until the
expanding mandrel has moved back completely and then press the inching
switch (8) again. Repeat the expanding process until the expanding jaws (17)
are pushed into the pipe up to the stop.
Expanding with REMS Akku-Ex-Press P (Fig. 11, 12)
Push the compression sleeve over the pipe in the REMS Akku-Ex-Press P,
insert the expanding head into the pipe up to the stop and press the expanding
head/drive unit against the pipe. Switch on the drive unit (8). Make sure that
the compression sleeve is far enough away from the expanding head in the
expanding process because otherwise the expanding jaws (17) can bend or
break. Keep the inching switch (8) pressed until the pipe is expanded. This is
indicated by an acoustic signal (click). After a short dwell time for stabilising
the expanded pipe, press the reset button (13) until the expanding mandrel
(18) has been pulled right back. Expand several times if necessary. Turn the
pipe slightly. Read and follow the installation and assembly instructions of the
system manufacturer.
Expanding with REMS Akku-Ex-Press P ACC, REMS Akku-Ex-Press Cu
ACC (Fig. 11, 12)
Push the compression sleeve over the pipe in the REMS Akku-Ex-Press P
ACC, insert the expanding head into the pipe up to the stop and press the
expanding head/drive machine against the pipe. Switch on the drive machine
(8). Make sure that the compression sleeve is far enough away from the
expanding head in the expanding process because otherwise the expanding
jaws (17) can bend or break. Keep the inching switch (8) pressed until the pipe
is expanded. This is indicated by an acoustic signal (click). Expand several
times if necessary. Turn the pipe slightly. Read and follow the installation and
assembly instructions of the system manufacturer.
In the REMS Akku-Ex-Press Cu ACC, insert the expanding head into the pipe
up to the stop and press the expanding head/drive machine against the pipe.
Switch on the drive machine. If the expanding head is open, the drive machine
switches automatically to return and the expanding head is closed again. Read
and follow the installation and assembly instructions of the system manufacturer.
3.4. Battery charging status check with complete discharge protection
All REMS cordless presses made as of 2011-01-01 are equipped with an
electronic battery charging status check with battery charge indication by a
2-coloured green/red LED (23). The LED lights green when the battery is fully
or still sufficiently charged. The LED lights red when the battery must be charged.
If this condition occurs during pressing and the pressing process is not finished,
the pressing must be completed with a fully charged Li-Ion battery. If the drive
unit is not used, the LED goes out after approx. 2 hours but comes on again
when the drive unit is switched back on.
4. Maintenance
WARNING
Notwithstanding the servicing listed below it is recommended to send in the
REMS drive units together with all the tools (e.g. pressing tongs, pressing tongs
Mini, pressing rings with adapter tongs, compression heads, expanding heads)
and accessories (e.g. batteries, rapid chargers) at least once a year to an
authorised REMS customer service station for inspection and repeated inspec-
tion of electrical equipment in accordance with EN 62638:2010-08 (VDE 0702).
4.1. Servicing
WARNING
Before service work, pull the mains plug or remove the battery!
Keep the pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs,
pressing heads and expanding heads, and particularly their receptacles, clean.
Clean heavily soiled metal parts with turpentine oil, for example, and then
rustproof them.
Clean plastic parts (for ex. housing, batteries) only with a mild soap and a damp
cloth. Do not use domestic cleaning agents. These frequently contain chemicals
that can attack plastic parts. On no account use petrol, turpentine oil, thinners
or similar products to clean plastic parts.
Ensure that liquids never get inside the electrical equipment. Never immerse
the electrical equipment in liquid.
4.1.1. Pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings and adapter tongs
Pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings and adapter tongs must
be checked regularly for smooth action. Clean pressing tongs, pressing tongs
Mini, pressing rings and adapter tongs if necessary and lightly grease the bolts
(12) of the pressing jaws, pressing segments and adapter jaws with machine
oil. Remove deposits from the pressing contour (11). Check the proper func-
tioning of all pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings and adapter
tongs regularly with a test pressing with inserted pressing fitting. A perfect
pressing is only produced with full closure of the pressing tongs, pressing tongs
Mini, pressing ring or pressing segment. Full closure of the pressing jaws (10),
pressing rings (20) or pressing segment (21) both at their tips (Fig. 1 and Fig.
16 to 19 at "A") and on the opposite side (Fig. 1 and Fig. 16 to 19 at "B") can
be observed after completing the pressing. If a visible burr is created on the
pressing sleeve when closing the pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing
ring or pressing segment, the pressing may be faulty or leaking (see 5. Trouble).
Damaged or worn pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings and
adapter tongs may no longer be used. In case of doubt, send in the drive
machine together with all pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings
and adapter tongs to an authorised REMS service shop for inspection.
4.1.2. Radial presses
Keep the press tongs receptacle clean, in particular clean the press rollers (5)
and tongs shank (2) at regular intervals and then lightly grease them with
machine oil. Check the functional reliability of the drive unit regularly by making
a pressing with the largest press fitting used. If the pressing tongs, pressing
tongs Mini, pressing rings close completely during this pressing operation (see
above), the drive unit is functionally reliable.
4.1.3. Axial presses
Keep the compression heads (14) and mounting bores in the pressing device
and the pressing device itself clean.
4.1.4. Pipe expanders
Keep the expanding device (15), expanding heads (16) and expanding mandrel
(18) in REMS Akku-Ex-Press Q & E ACC, REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC,
REMS Akku-Ex-Press P, REMS Akku-Ex-Press P ACC and REMS Akku-Ex-
Press Cu ACC clean. Grease the expanding mandrel (18) lightly from time to
time.
4.2. Inspection/repair
WARNING
Before any repair work, pull the mains plug or remove the battery! This
work may only be performed by qualified personnel.
The gearbox of the drive unit in the REMS Power-Press E is maintenance -free.
They operate in a permanent grease filling and therefore require no lubrication.
The motor of the REMS Power-Press E, REMS Power-Press, REMS Power-
Press ACC and REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC has carbon brushes. These
are subject to wear and must therefore be inspected or replaced from time to
time. Only use genuine REMS carbon brushes. The REMS drive units (except
for REMS Power-Press E) operate electrohydraulically. If the pressing power
is insufficient or oil is lost, the drive unit must be inspected and if necessary
repaired by REMS or by an authorised REMS after-sales service facility.
NOTICE
Damaged or worn pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter
tongs, pressing heads or expanding heads cannot be repaired.
5. Trouble
