When using lubricants, no residues (impurities) may be left on the pin connectors (especially not on the contact pins). LUMBERG CONNECT GMBH Im Gewerbepark 2 58579 Schalksmühle Germany Processing Instructions Male multi-point header RAST 5 364V01EN Page 12 of 14 3.4 Clinching We recommend in principle not to clinch our contacts. If, in case of disregard, clinching is executed it is at the processing organization’s responsibility to ensure correct function of the components. 3.5 Housing The housing should not show any visible signs of damage following the assembly or soldering process (using a visual inspection). The plug-in function must be confirmed (we recommend a test of function). The contact blade must be correctly positioned in the housing (using a visual inspection, for example). 4 Coding The coding is implemented according to the RAST 5 standard. 4.2 Coding According to RAST 5 Basic type in insertion direction Positioning Coding Interlock LUMBERG CONNECT GMBH Im Gewerbepark 2 58579 Schalksmühle Germany Processing Instructions Male multi-point header RAST 5 364V01EN Page 13 of 14 5 Quality assurance measures All work and process steps or changes (for example, product introduction, cabling changes, tool or machine changes etc.) that can influence product quality, must be in accordance with the requirements of the relevant testing authority for that work step. Implementation of such steps or measures must be done with due care and attention. 5.1 Quality characteristics The following quality characteristics should be considered: LUMBERG will ensure that there is compliance with the RAST 5 directive. 5.2 Press-in depth of contacts The insertion depth of the contacts is determined by the height of the contact carrier. 5.3 Holding force of the contact blade in the contact carrier Minimum push-out force for the contact blade out of the contact carrier: F > 45 N / contact blade LUMBERG CONNECT GMBH Im Gewerbepark 2 58579 Schalksmühle Germany Processing Instructions Male multi-point header RAST 5 364V01EN Page 14 of 14 6 Storage Tin-plated and silver-plated surfaces can undergo a physical aging process that may negatively affect their ability to be soldered. In order to maintain the best connection characteristics, make sure that the following instructions are closely followed during additional processing steps: Storage conditions: The parts should ideally be stored in the original packaging, at a constant temperature of 21 – 25° C, with a relative humidity of no more than 55%. The components should not be exposed to direct light. They should also be protected from any extreme ambient conditions (such as air pollution). The storage time should be kept as short as possible, especially for silver-plated components and for solder connections in general. Our experience is that tin-plated components can be soldered for about a year after delivery when using the proper conventional flux. Silver-plated components, owing to their physical characteristics, should be processed within about six months of delivery. These specifications are based on experience using components stored under optimal conditions. They do not constitute a binding commitment for the fulfillment of any characteristics.
