Terminating of plugs and straight sockets with cable crimping (crimp contact)

± 0.2

1. Cable preparation

First place the bend relief (if to be used) on the cable.

Strip the cable according to dimensions below.

2. Cable termination

2.1 Place crimp ferrule ➀ on the cable. Widen the shield braid.

Slide the subassembly ➁ into the cable until the insulator rests

against the dielectric and the cable conductor is visible through

the contact inspection hole.

2.2 Crimp the contact with the LEMO crimping tool using

the square hole (see “Tooling” on page 37).

Gently pull the cable in order to check the crimping.

2.3 Slide the crimp ferrule ➀ onto the shield until it rests against

the crimp backnut of the subassembly ➁. Crimp with the same

LEMO crimping tool using the hexagonal opening.

Slide the insulator ➂ onto the subassembly ➁.

2.4 Slide the assembly into the connector shell ➃ and screw it

onto the subassembly ➁. Tighten using the appropriate tool

to a torque of 0.25 Nm (see “Tooling” on page 35, 36 and 37).

Push the bend relief (if used) onto the crimp ferrule ➀.
