AFLglobal.com | 800.866.7385 Quick Compress Accessories for Maximum Conductor Operating Temperatures of 100ºC (212ºF) In the past, three separate compression accessory series were required to connect ACSR, AAC, AAAC and ACAR To assist utilities and distributors in reducing inventory, AFL designed one series of compression accessories that can handle all four conductor types, the Quick Compress Product Line Quick Compress handles these conductors while maintaining the same mechanical and electrical reliability as other AFL product lines There are two primary characteristics that make Quick Compress different from any other accessory line First, it is made of a high strength aluminum alloy, which has a minimum tensile strength nearly twice that of other compression accessory systems This means that for the same conductor size, smaller connectors can be used without any fear of sacrificing strength Secondly, Quick Compress uses an aluminum 'core grip' to hold the steel core of ACSR This eliminates the need to have a dead end steel compression barrel or a steel sleeve for full tension ACSR joints By eliminating the steel, only one set of dies is required for installing Quick Compress Accessories All compression accessories are designed to operate at a temperature 15% to 25% cooler than the conductor Quick Compress accessories are designed for a maximum conductor operating temperature of 100ºC (212ºF) For applications exceeding 100ºC (212ºF) operating temperature, see the Standard and HiTemp ® Compression Accessories sections Features Installs in 40% Less Time Quick Compress Accessories are designed to save valuable time They are made of a high strength alloy allowing for shorter accessories resulting in fewer compression bites The accessories come pre-filled, the steel eye is pre-compressed and a one-piece core grip is included Compared to other two-die accessory systems, Quick Compress Accessories can be installed in 40% less time One-Piece Core Grip When using ACSR conductor, the one-piece core grip eliminates the need for a dead end steel compression barrel or a steel sleeve for full tension compression joints Factory Installed Eye The dead end features a steel eye that is oriented and installed at the factory This decreases installation time and eliminates costly field errors Factory Pre-filled Quick Compress dead ends, joints, terminals and jumper connec - tors are prefilled with AFL Filler Compound (AFC) and capped to prevent loss of compound prior to installation, eliminating an installation step High Voltage Applications The end tapers of all compression accessories are supplied with a high voltage finish for die sizes 12CD and above Corona bolts are furnished standard on 15º terminals for these section sizes The square edges of bolted pads of the compression accessories could cause Corona Pads with rounded edges and corners can be supplied by adding the catalog suffix 'EHV' 155 Quick Compress ® Quick Compress ® © 2004, AFL, all rights reserved.
