Cable-pull pipe bursting system ø 25 mm, 400 kN | X400

Cable Burster, EXTRACTOR The TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 400 is a cable burster (wire burster) which replaces old pipes from 1 1/2“ (ID 40 mm) up to 10“ (ID 250 mm). Lengths up to 150 m are possible. Old pipe from cast iron, steel, clayware or PE/PVC can be replaced. New HDPE pipes with outer diameters of 63 – 250 mm are pulled in. The TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 400 is operated via an electric remote control. No operator has to be in the pit or in the manhole during operation. An integrated electric control box changes the direction of the hydraulic cylinder. The standard version of the TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 400 requires a working pit, which is only 1.70 m long and 1.00 m wide. In spite of this small working pit, the X 400 pulls the bursting tools and the new pipe into its front box and into the working pit, after the pipe renewal job has been finished. This is fast and efficient. The TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 400 operates at speeds up to 145 m/h. It is equipped with a pulling force of 400 kN (40 tons) which adapts itself automatically to the real working conditions. The TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 400 is powered by a supersilent Diesel power pack which has been designed exactly for this wire burster. As an option remote pressure control is available.
