6.7 Assemble Filler Plugs
Filler plugs have to be inserted into not congurated
contact cavities of the contact inserts. Depending on
the contact insert, ller plugs of dierent models and
with corresponding diameters are available, refer to
section „6.2 Crimp Contacts (Pin / Socket) and Filler
Plugs“.
The following illustrations show for dierent examples
of application how ller plugs have to be assembled
into the contact inserts.
X Use tweezers (2) for easier insert of small ller
plugs (1).

For socket inserts:
X Insert one whole ller plug (1/3) per not congu-
rated contact cavity.

For pin inserts:
X Cut through one whole ller plug in the middle
and only insert half a ller plug (4) per not congu-
rated contact cavity.

6.8 Assemble Contact Inserts into
Receptacle / Plug shells
After all the contacts have been made and the contacts
and the ller plugs, if necessary, have been assembled
into the contact insert, the contact insert must be in-
serted into the shell and locked with the help of ad-
equate insertion tools (refer to section „6.1 Required
Tools“).
Codings
The receptacle and plug shells as well as the corre-
sponding contact inserts are equipped with codings in
the form of grooves and guideways.

Fig. 18: Examples for codings: Grooves on the contact inserts,
guideways on the inner sides of the shells
All contact inserts have 2 coding posi-
tions (A, B). This allows for the unmis-
takable connection of for example two
connectors with dierent voltages to one
and the same piece of equipment.
