TELECOMMUNICATIONS - BLOWN FIBRE INSTALLATION EQUIPMENT 
Factair has been producing compressors and associated equipment for the telecommunication industry since 1988. 
 
They are used to install optical fibre using a BT patented technique called Blown Fibre. This utilises specially filtered compressed-air to install a bundle of blown fibre unit, into a pre-installed tube for distances of up to and exceeding 1km. The advantage of this method is that a blown fibre unit can be installed strain free on a ‘Just in Time’ basis. 
 
Factair can provide a range of petrol, diesel and electric 110V and 240V compressors to install both fibre, mini cable and cable fibre units. In addition Factair also manufactures dispensers and the 3A / 4A blowing heads.
