4)
Populate the insert with contacts by poking each of the wired contacts into its respective insert
cavity, following an electrical schematic for the system being wired.
5)
Slide the Bulkhead Adapter back down the conductors, apply thread locking compound (Loc-tite
242, blue, non-permanent, or equal), per the compound suppliers recommendations.
6)
Hand-tighten the Bulkhead Adapter onto the Panel Mount Receptacle Shell, then, using a strap
wrench, tighten the Bulkhead Adapter fully to shoulder.
7)
Referring to the Potting Instructions, Pg 10, stand the assembly vertical, conductors pointing up,
and fill the Potting Adapter with cement to the level shown in Figure Z. After curing, this
assembly is now permanently cemented, non-separable and non-repairable, and can be mounted to
the bulkhead.
8)
It is best to fit the connector to the bulkhead at a time when the free end of the cable is not
terminated to the electrical system. If this is not possible, then it is necessary to rotate the
connector assembly counter-clockwise to wind the cable/conductors so that when the assembly is
threaded into a bulkhead in the subsequent instruction, the cable/conductors regain their most
natural lay, once the connector is mounted to the bulkhead. (Rotations required to be determined
by end-user).
9)
Thread the receptacle assembly into the bulkhead until the seal touches down, and then tighten it
by the smallest fraction of a revolution to the first instance that the mounting holes line up with the
threaded enclosure holes.
10)
Position the protective covers’ lanyard tab over one of the mounting holes and screw a fastener
through it. Apply the remaining fasteners to the other three holes with torque suitable for screw
size used.
11)
Install the protective cover and tighten fully.
12)
Secure both grub screws to prevent unauthorized removal.

Potting Instructions
All cable adapters, other than ones suited for mating with an EX-certified gland, must be filled with epoxy (potted).
The material certified for use in filling the connectors in this series, is Epoxies Etc., 50-3150FR/Cat190. The user or
installer shall consider the performance of these materials with regard to attack by aggressive substances that may be
present in the hazardous area. This material is a two-component casting system with a 100:5 volumetric mix ratio.
Hermetic receptacle version employs HYSOL EE4183-HD3404. This material is a two-component casting system
with a 100:9 volumetric mix ratio.
These products are available in pre-measured “mix & dispense” packaging. More information is available by
