CSV17 - The CSV17 Pneumatic Antenna Launcher is the compact 17 inch long model. It has two inches less barrel and a one inch smaller diameter chamber. This results in a more compact launcher which has 80% of the performance of the larger 19 inch model, reaching in excess of 150 feet in line launching trajectory. The pressure chamber has been optimized for use with a smaller volume of compressed gas, allowing more efficient use of air and better compatibility with the small 12 gram CO2 cartridges. The CSV17 is designed to fit in a standard 18 inch tool case to provide enhanced portability for field applications.
KIT - Launcher kits include the parts for building the launcher. They have been cut and machined. Some minor preparation such as washing and/or sanding is required prior to assembling. PVC primer and cement is used to attach the parts, and Epoxy is used in a few cases to fill small holes, and optionally to provide extra support. Drilling and tapping is required for installing the gauge and fill fittings. See the Launcher Manual for instructions. NOTE - the Launcher Assembly Instructions are online. Please review them and make sure you are prepared to build the kit before ordering.
