PN 610 104 105 - Virginia Panel Corporation

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS & PROCEDURES
Coaxial Receiver Terminal (50 Ohm) Assembly
P/N 610 104 105
PARTS REQUIRED:
Coaxial Receiver and ITA Crimp Tool (P/N 910 106 101)
Hex Crimp Tool (P/N 910 101 104)
50 OHM Signal Contact Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 117)
50 OHM Coaxial ITA Terminal (P/N 610 103 103)
Shield Conductor Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 104)
32 Oz. Maximum Shield to check mating force (P/N 910 121 124) - optional
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.
Cut wire .33" less than the overall desired length.
2.
Strip outer insulation .68" (Fig. A).
3.
Slide brass insert onto wire until it bottoms
out against the wire (Fig. B).
4.
Crimp brass insert onto wire (Fig. B) using
the Hex Crimp Tool (P/N 910 101 104) in Hex Position B.
5.
Unravel braid and fold it back over the brass insert (Fig. B).
6.
Strip dielectric to within .02" (Fig. B).
7.
Slide signal contact assembly (including rear insulator) over the
conductor wire (Figs. B & C) until the rear insulator bottoms out
against the braid (Fig. C). Crimp signal contact using Crimp Tool
(P/N 910 106 101) - with the indexing turret set at green and selector
knob on No. 4.
8.
Slide front insulator over signal contact (Fig. C) until it bottoms out on
the rear insulator (Fig. D).
9.
Check mating force of 2 to 8 ounces using the ITA Contact-a .0395"
diameter male pin. If the mating force is too low, remove the front
insulator and resize the signal contact using the 50 OHM Signal
Contact Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 117).
Recheck the mating force.
10. Slide shield conductor over both insulators (Fig. D)
until it bottoms out on the brass insert (Fig. E).
11. Crimp shield conductor using the Hex Crimp Tool (P/N 910 101 104)
in Hex Position B.
CAUTION: When crimping, make sure that the brass insert is held
securely against the shield conductor so that no movement occurs.
12. After assembly, check mating force using a 50 OHM Coaxial ITA
Terminal (P/N 610 103 103). A mating force greater than 2 lbs.
can cause excessive Receiver handle force and ITA bowing. A mating
force in excess of 2 lbs. can be adjusted by using the Shield Conductor
Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 104)-insert the connector so that
half of the coax shield slots are still showing and squeeze the tool
handle. The tool should be used once each time in three different
positions (approx. equally spaced) for best results.
