D.
All environmentally
sealed type connectors
will have all empty
cavities filled with unwired
contacts
(pins and sockets)
and sealing
plugs.
2. Assembling MS3106 Series Connectors
A. Inserting
Contacts. Refer
to Figure 202.
(1) Disassemble connector.
(2) Slide clamping
ring and compression sleeve
on to wire bundle.
(3) Feed wires through sealing grommet and rear insert.
(4) Lock
retaining ring into
proper position by slipping
silicone bushing
toward receptacle
or pin end
of contact.
NOTE:
Locking the retaining
ring may be accomplished
after crimping
has been completed.
(5) Strip insulation from wire ends.
(6) Crimp contacts on to wires.
(7) Install
contacts in
front insert.
(8) After all contacts
are properly positioned
in front insert, slide
rear insert over rear
end of contacts
until rear insert butts against forward insert.
(9) Align keyway
and install
assembled
inserts into connector
shell.
(10) Slide
sealing grommet
forward until
grommet butts
against rear insert.
(11) Slide
compression sleeve
and clamping nut forward
until clamping
nut engages threads
on
connector
shell. Make certain packing
in clamping nut is seated
properly.
(12) Tighten clamping
nut finger tight plus
quarter tum.
NOTE:
A strap wrench
or a padded wrench
may be used
to tighten the clamping
nut the
additional quarter turn.
3. Assembling DBA-Type Connectors
NOTE:
This is typical for
all connectors with
the contacts installed
and removed from
the rear.
A. Installing Contacts.
Refer to Figure 203 and
Figure 204.
(1) Strip insulation from
wire ends. For number 12 to number
20 contacts, strip 1/4 to 5/16 inch. For
number 20 contacts, strip 5/32 to 7/32 inch.
(2) Insert wire into contact until wire strands are visible in inspection hole.
(3) Crimp contact with proper crimping tool.
B. Removing
Contacts.
NOTE: For
all crimp-type connectors,
all unused wire
cavities must be filled
with plastic wire hole
fillers designed for the type of connector being used.
(1) With the rear insert toward you,
snap the white end of appropriate size insertion/removal
tool
over the wire of the contact to be removed.
(2)
Slowly slide the tool along the wire into the
insert cavity until it engages the contact shoulder
and
a
positive resistance
is felt. At this time,
the contact retaining
clip is in the unlock
position.
(3) Press the wire against
the serrations of the tool and pull both tool
and contact-wire assembly
from the connector.
C. Inserting Contacts.
(1) Snap
the wire
into the appropriate
insertion/removal
tool.
(2) Pull the wire
back through the
tool until the tip of
the tool seats against
the back of the wire
contact.
(3) Holding the connector
with the backshell
removed, slowly
push the contact
straight into the
connector insert.
(4) A firm stop will be evident when the contact positively seats, then let go of the wire and pull out
the tool.
