The OLT 38B Overhead Line Tensioner is designed to install single conductor. The bullwheels are offset as per IEEE specifications to prevent unnecessary twisting of the conductor during installation. The bullwheels are outfitted with replaceable Diameter Molded segments. Molding of the segments in this manor eliminates the gaps between segments and creates a smooth cable surface. 24″ disc brakes, with centralized braking controls at the operator station allow for precise tensioning of the conductor.
The reel cargo area allows for the carrying of a reel 90″ in diameter and 52″ wide at a maximum weight of 8,000 lbs. A hydraulically actuated 16″ overspin brake is also included as well as a urethane roller fairlead for guiding the cable to the bullwheels.
