*Tested, Nonfunctional
The TM 500A Telescopic Manipulator enables EOD operators and Bomb Technicians to deploy EOD tools such as a disruptor or X-ray plate, remove obstacles, or handle suspicious objects, where operating procedures permit. Its primary benefit is to increase the Bomb Technician’s standoff distance from a threat when use of a robot is not an option.
Extends from 7ft to 14ft
This new generation of remote manipulator has several new features, including:
- Claw pitch rotates 240°
- Claw rotates left/right 135°
- Left/Right handguard
- Interchangeable claw tips
- Battery power indicator
- Uses either rechargeable or disposable “C” cell batteries
- Assembles quickly and without any tools
An optional High Definition (HD) video camera system, including a tablet that records video and photos, can be mounted to the TM 500A Telescopic Manipulator. This improves the operator’s view of the claw’s placement, and the imagery it captures can be used for training and evidence.
In addition to securely and precisely placing Bomb Disposal tools or clearing obstacles, it can reach into areas that would be difficult or dangerous for a Bomb Technician wearing a Bomb Suit to access, such as bushes or under a vehicle.
