HY-SERIES HYDRAULIC PINCH OFF TOOL
WITH ELECTRIC / HYDRAULIC PUMP
The HY-Series Hydraulic / Electric Pinch-Off Tools are equipped with the modified pump configuration
shown above. (All Handsets are also available utilizing Hydraulic / Pneumatic pumps). The system
comes complete with Hydraulic / Electric pump, hydraulic pressure gauge, 6 ft. hydraulic hose with
quick-disconnects, footswitch control. The pump is also equipped with a manual toggle style switch for
manual operation.
The HY-series tools are designed to pinch-off and hermetically seal (cold weld) OFHC copper tubing, as
well as aluminum and high purity nickel. If attempting to pinch-off and seal any other tubing materials,
contact our office to discuss your application.
When considering the use of this tool for your application, please provide us with samples of the tubing
you wish to process. We will test and confirm the tubes can be properly sealed using this tool prior to
processing your order request. All tools and pumps are pre-calibrated by CPS before shipping.

Models available with the hydraulic / electric pump are as follows:
HY-250-E: For use with OFHC copper tubing, 0.187” - .250” diameter
HY-500-E: For use with OFHC copper tubing, .250” - .500” diameter
HY-750-E: For use with OFHC copper tubing, .500” - .750” diameter
HY-1.0-E: For use with OFHC copper tubing, .750” – 1.0” diameter
PROCESS TO SET OR RESET PUMP PRESSURE
NOTE: The hydraulic / electric pumps supplied with the HY-Series Pinch-Off tools are capable of
producing 10,000 psi hydraulic pressure. These tools operate at much lower pressure settings to prevent
damage to the handset or jaw breakage. Prior to shipping a complete tool and pump assembly, we will
always request the customer to send CPS samples of their tubing to test with the tool. This allows us to
confirm the tool performance and calibrate the pump to the safe operating pressure that matches the
tubing being processed. DISCLAIMER: If a customer waives the tube sample request, we cannot
guarantee tool performance or potential damage to the tool itself. All warranties will be void if tubing is
not tested prior to shipping.
Should it ever be necessary to change or alter the pump pressure, please contact CPS to get pump setting
recommendations.

Increase pump pressure:
Turn clockwise when pump is activated and
carefully watch pressure gauge. Do not exceed
4000 psi without contacting CPS for
recommendations.
Reduce pump pressure:
Turn counter-clockwise when pump is NOT
activated. Make small adjustments and then
check pressure by activating pump and reading
the gauge.
When pressure setting has been
reached, tighten the knurled lock
nut and replace the protective cap
