Once you have completed setups 1
and 2 of the “Bundle Preparation”
instructions, your bundles should
look similar to the one shown here.
Heat shrink boots are shown in this
example as the end seal method;
however, RTV can also be used.
Use appropriate tube fitting avail-
able from Parker Instrumentation
Connectors Division.

Mount the standoff to the bundle
using pipe straps provided. Select
the appropriate size depending upon
the bundle size. Allow approximately
7 inches of heating cable to extend
beyond sealing grommet for easier
power termination.
Slide the seal grommet over the
heating cable and position the
grommet in the standoff.
Note: If heater wire is braided
only, heat shrink sleeve must be
shrunk on wire, then slid through
grommet so that grommet opening
is completely sealed.
Once in place, prepare heating cable
end per “Heating Cable Preparation”
steps 1-6.
