With Tyco Solarlok connectors, different
kinds of annular contacts are used for dif-
ferent conductor cross-sections. Make sure
to use the right tools for these cross-sec-
tions. The enclosed Tyco Solarlok connec-
tors are equipped with annular contacts
for a cable cross-section of 4 mm. The
enclosed seals have an internal diameter of
6 mm (for lines with a cladding diameter
of 5.3 to 6.2 mm) and 8 mm (for lines with
a cladding diameter of 7.2 to 8.0 mm).
Make sure to use a seal that fits the clad-
ding diameter of the cable used.
When installing the Tyco Solarlok connec-
tors, proceed in the following order:
1. Bare the de-energised line by 8 mm
2. Crimp the annular contact
3. Slide the gland, the compression sleeve,
and the seal onto the line
4. Engage the contact in the connector
housing
5. Screw the lock nut on
6. Tightening torque for the cable gland:
1.5 Nm
