The RAPTOR CLAMP DIVERTER DRONE INSTALLATION KIT (SINGLE SYSTEM) is a drone-based installation solution designed for electric utilities and contractors to install RAPTOR CLAMP Diverters on overhead power lines using DJI Matrice 300 or 350 platforms. This do-it-yourself kit equips a single drone with all required components, including a guard rod system, motor arm guard, landing gear guard mount, clamp carrier, and support assemblies, enabling controlled and repeatable installations in the field. The system supports the placement of multiple diverters per flight, allowing crews to complete line marking tasks more efficiently while maintaining consistent installation quality.
This kit is used in transmission and distribution line maintenance, wildlife protection programs, and infrastructure projects where safe access to energized or remote spans is required. It allows operators to install bird diverters across multiple spans and in hard-to-reach areas without relying on bucket trucks or helicopters. The drone-based approach reduces lineworker exposure to jobsite hazards while improving project efficiency and minimizing environmental disruption through battery-powered operation and precise placement capabilities.
The RAPTOR CLAMP Drone Kit enhances aerial power line maintenance by providing an efficient method for installing bird diverters with a drone-based platform.
Drone-Based Line Marker Installation: Enables standard DJI M300/M350 drones to install RAPTOR CLAMP Diverters, improving visibility of overhead lines to help reduce bird collisions and related outages.
Enhanced Safety: Limits the need for bucket trucks and helicopters, reducing lineworker exposure to hazardous installation environments.
Expanded Drone Utilization: Adds a practical installation application to existing drone programs, increasing the overall value and return on investment for utility and contractor fleets.
High-Productivity Deployment: Supports installation of multiple diverters in a single flight, allowing crews to complete more work in less time.
Quick-Change Carriage System: Allows fast and efficient reloading of diverters to minimize downtime and maintain consistent workflow.
