Method and device for filling electrical and/or optical telecommunications cables with a sealing compound

摘要

In order to be able to fill, under pressure, even telecommunications cables having a high number of pairs with a sealing compound which is enriched with hollow bodies and preferably consists of petroleum jelly, a known filling device (10) is used which consists of a filling head (11) and two sealing tubes (12 and 13 respectively) which are used as the inlet and outlet respectively. The filling head (11) has a variable volume as a result of a cylindrical chamber (15) which is arranged on the filling head and is acted on by a piston compressor (16). <IMAGE>
