Pipe bursting pit to pit with the X 300 C

Pipe renewal with the cable burster X 300 C - ideal for cellars and manholes
The TERRA-EXTRACTOR X 300 C is an innovative cable burster for replacement of old pipes made from cast iron, steel, clay ware or PE/PVC. With this machine you can burst old pipes with Ø 34 - 220 mm (1.5“ - 8.5“) and pull in new HDPE pipes with Ø 63 - 180 mm (2.5” - 7”) in lengths up to 120 m (400 ft). With a maximum pulling force of 300 kN (30 tonnes / 66‘000 lb/33 US tons) it is a strong but compact machine.
The Cable Burster X 300 C can operate on smallest areas of L x W = 0.42 m x 0.60 m (16.5” x 22.6”).
The X 300 C can be installed in manholes of Ø 800 mm (32") and dismounted it can be lifted through manhole entries of Ø 620 mm (25").
Special cables Ø 22 mm (0.9”) and Ø 14 mm (0.6”) allow the replacement of smallest pipes.
The Cable Burster X 300 C can be disassembled easily into components less than 45 kg (100_lb). Thereby it can be carried into cellar rooms or manholes.
The assembled X 300 C can be lifted at its two lifting eyes.
Unique clamping jaws
Four cable clamps with longitudinal slots (patented) guarantee secure contact to the pulling cable, no matter if the cable is new or dirty.
The main clamp clamps the cable when the two cylinders push the main clamp upwards.
The counter clamp holds the cable under tension when the two cylinders move downwards and the main clamp is released.
