To install a LEMO connector
1. Identify all parts of the LEMO connector; see Figure 45.
Figure 45 – LEMO Series K connector
2. Remove approximately 50 mm (2 in.) of cable jacket, being careful not to nick the braided shield
underneath the jacket.
3. Slide the bend relief, collet nut, collet, metal washer and sealing gland on to the cable jacket; see
Figure 46. Ensure that:
• the slots in the collet face towards the collet nut,
• the sealing gland fits snugly over the cable jacket,
• the bevel in the metal washer faces towards the collet
.
Improper crimping or damaged connectors may result if tools other than the specified tools
are used.
Caution - The Delco cable has two pairs of conductors and each pair has a white conductor.
It is possible to get the white conductors mixed up if one of the conductors is not properly
marked and identified.
Caution - Water may enter the LEMO connector if the sealing gland does not fit snugly over
the cable jacket. If the fit is not snug, do not continue the installation until the correct cable
and connector is confirmed.
