Pneumatic mole- 180 mm SET with compressor COMP AIR C50

Technical data

Product description

The Z180 is another product co-designed by our customers. The need to fill a gap in our range with such a machine resulted from changing requirements for minimum pipe diameters for all kinds of installations, from water supply to gas and ICT. Just a few years ago the most popular “moles” were the 130s, i.e. moles with a diameter of 130 mm, which are ideal for installing Ø110mm pipes. Recently, however, the need to install Ø160mm pipes has been arising more and more often. The Z180 mole is designed mainly for pulling in Ø160mm plastic pipes and for driving steel casing pipes with diameters up to 406 mm. Like all the other “moles” of the Z family, it has a reverse gear controlled pneumatically by a lever on the lubricator, so it is also simple and safe to operate. Further advantages are low air consumption, compatibility with the equipment of the Z130 and Z160, as well as precise and fast operation.

CompAir C50-7 screw compressor

• Yanmar 4TNV88C diesel engine with EU Stage V emissions
• Fixed hitch without brake SU2

Applications

• Extracting and breaking tools
• Blowing work
• Drilling
• Soil loosening (compressed air lances)
• Pile driving
• Pneumatic piercing tools
• Paint spraying
• Sandblasting
• Combination of compressed air and generator

With a particulate filter, the extremely smooth-running, water-cooled 4-cylinder Yanmar diesel engines in this highly successful CompAir series comply with the EU Stage V emissions standard.

These compressors are ideal for urban use, where the highest demands are placed on low exhaust and noise emissions. The low operating weight of less than 750 kg or 810 kg (without height adjustment, without or with brakes) makes them predestined for use by equipment rental companies.

These compact, lightweight compressors are optionally available with an integrated generator and/or aftercooler, as well as with various chassis. Some types are equipped with FPM (Flexible Power Management).

Uses

• Demolition hammers and pneumatic tools
• Fibre optic blowing
• Small-diameter moles
