How the Smart™ Tool WorksThe Smart™ Tool was engineered with built-in intelligence* that enables it to sense the connector barrel diameter and automatically apply justthe right amount of compression force. This eliminates virtually all air spaces and forms the connector and conductor strands into a solid mass,resulting in a high-quality, low-resistance connection. In addition, the tool clearly embosses “T&B” with each compression for positive verification that the correct tool was used.* Novopress System
Uniform, Dependable ConnectionsThe Smart™ Tool gives you consistent, high-quality compression connections over a wide range of connector sizes. Available in manual, battery-powered and air-operated versions, this tool easily installs lugs and splices from #8 AWG through 900 kcmil copper or 750 kcmil aluminum — without changing dies. For the specified wire range, all you need is one tool. You always have the right die size, eliminating dieselection mistakes.
Lower Installation CostsProductivity will be greatly improved with the Smart™ Tool, especially when installing a variety of connector sizes or types. Initial investment islow, requiring minimal tool inventory. These benefits add up to lower installed cost.
C-Type Yoke Offers Installation ConvenienceThe C-type yoke configuration and large die spacing enable the Smart™ Tool to slip directly over the connector. This means added speed andconvenience when installing two-way splice connectors, especially in confined spaces.
Smart™ Tool Range – Taking FeaturesThe following size Color-Keyed® lugs and splice connectors, when crimped with the Smart™ Tool, produce these range-taking capabilities:
