2.1. Recommendation when positioning the ferrule before crimping
The pre-assembly of the cable with the connector
is realized according general
recommendation of use n° 411-15677
.
Then
the ferrule must be manually pre-inserted over
the braid on the shields chimney (as shown picture 1).
Braid strands repartition must be
homogeneous all around the chimney
(For the Draka cable,
only the upper layer of
strands has to cover the shields chimney).
Picture 1
Caution must be taken when inserting the ferrule with the manual tool to avoid
damaging the braid strands :
- direction of the insertion force has to coincide with the alignment
of the ferrule with the shields chimney.
- do not push to strong the ferrule against the shield chimney edge in order to avoid
cutting the braid strands.
After the manual tool insertion has been done, the dimension between the ferrule and the
upper shield (see picture 2) has to be between 1mm minimum and 1.4mm maximum.
