Replacing the Center
Conductor Contact
Not all parts on the adapters are replaceable, but all of the adapters have a
replaceable center conductor contact.
When you replace the center conductor contact, observe the following
precautions:
• Before installing the new center conductor contact, apply
Loctite sealant #222 to the threads of the center conductor.
• Do not use excessive force when tightening center conductor parts.
Models K281C and K281C Option 012
To replace the center conductor, you will need a 5/64 inch hexagonal nut
driver.
In some units, the center conductor mounting hole was made oversized to
allow for a slight adjustment. When the center conductor is replaced in these
units, it may be necessary to readjust and retest if the unit does not meet
specifications.
If the mounting hole appears to be oversized, mount the center conductor
toward one end of the adapter as far as it will go. If the adapter fails the
performance test, move the center conductor toward the opposite end and
then retest.
