OFC Installation into PLB Ducts

BLOWING METHOD

• Blowing is the process of pushing the cable through pre – prepared, pressurized, integral OFC ducts with the help of heavy air blowing pressure at 10 bar plus.

• The main driving force in the technology is blowing of air at high penetrating pressure.

Advantages Of PLB Ducts

•Pipes are permanently lubricated

•Lubricants are built into Polymer base

•Mechanical protection to OFC

•Empty Ducts can be placed for future use.

•Eliminates Redigging

•Saving in Reinstatment charges

ADVANTAGES

• Protection to OFC cable against destructing tensile forces.

• Work execution at a great speed with minimum risk to OFC.

• Replacement of existing faulty cable or Replacement within no time at a later stage.

PLB-HDPE Ducts•Standard length - 200M, 1000M

•Diameter - 32/26mm, 40/33mm, 50/42mm

•Couplers will be placed for jointing two lengths

•Nylon rope approximately 4mm dia is placed inside the ducts.

Duct Laying•Place the jack along the side of the trench

•Duct should be uncoiled from the bottom

•Drive the reel slowly to avoid over spinning

•Avoid twist and kinks

•When multiple ducts are placed in a single trench,

Duct spacer to be used so that the pipes do not cross each other.

PREREQUISITE

• Duct integrity

• Duct uniformity

OFC Installation into DuctsCable Blowing•Cable jet blowing machine with compressor is used

•Air is blown into the Duct at high pressure & distributed along the entire cable through Duct

•The cable should be pushed from the blowing end to achieve more blowable length.

CABLE JET MACHINE

• Make: SWITZERLAND

• Cable jet machine comes with appropriate spacers.

• These spacers range from 11 mm to 18.5 mm to suit different makes of OFC.

• The spacer suitable for sterlite 2001 make is 11 to12.5, 14-15.5 and 15-18.5.

PROCEDURE

• Complete duct integrity test for the entire modem section.

• Prepare stringent drum planning for entire route with ear marked below Points(B1, B2…..etc…,)

• Transport the ear marked drums to the specified below points and uncoil the drums into figure “8” formation.

• Prepare the cable end suitable for blowing by adding a spacer heading bullet.

• Place cable jet machine inside the blow pit and fix the top cover of the jet machine.

PROCEDURE CONTD…

• Insert sponge into the duct and fix the top cover of the jet machine.

• Fix the air – blowing hose pipe to the cable jet machine.

• Start the compressor and blow air at 10 – bar pressure.

• Confirm the receipt of sponge at the other end of the duct.

• Remove the top cover of the cable jet machine, insert the spear headed

Cable end into the duct and restore the top cover

PROCEDURE CONTD…

• Remove the jet machine and carefully normal the loop by lowering the duct.

• Tighten the coupler

• Continue the same for other modem section.

PRECAUTIONS

• Provisioning for extra cable length for bends and shrinkage of duct during drum planning.

• Care to be taken while lowering the duct at the end of blowing operation.

• Personnel must be beware of high operating air pressures

Factors Influencing

Blowable length•Inside diameter of the duct

•Outside Diameter of the cable

•Weight of the cable

•Number of slopes

•cable stiffness

•Straightness of the route

•Ambient temperature

Size of the blowing chamber is 3M X 1MX 1.5M(LXWXD )

These are temporary chambers and refilled after accomplishing blowing operation

Average blowable length is 700M to 2000M depending upon the factors
