1. Cable preparation
First place the bend relief (if to be used) on the cable.
Strip the cable according to dimensions below.
2. Cable terminating
2.1 Place the crimp ferrule ➀ on the cable. Widen the shield braid.
Slide the subassembly ➁ over the cable until the insulator rests
against the dielectric and the cable conductor is visible through
the contact solder hole.
2.2 Solder the conductor through the hole.
2.3 Slide the crimp ferrule ➀ onto the shield until it rests against
the crimp backnut of the subassembly ➁.
Crimp with the LEMO crimping tool using the hexagonal opening
(see “Tooling” on page 37).
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 pages 35, 36 and 37).
Push the bend relief (if used) onto the crimp ferrule.
