How to Install Star Teck Extreme STE050DATAS Cable Fittings
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the proper installation of Star Teck Extreme STE050DATAS series cable fittings. It covers cable preparation, feeding, and securing the fitting to ensure a correct and safe connection.
Estimated time: 15m
Tools needed:
Hacksaw, Wire strippers, Torque wrench or screwdriver
Supplies needed:
Star Teck Extreme STE050DATAS cable fitting, Armored cable
- Disconnect Power and Ensure Qualified Installation
WARNING: Disconnect all power to the circuit before beginning installation to prevent risk of electrical shock. Ensure that a qualified electrician performs the installation in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
- Select the Correct Fitting
Choose the appropriate Star Teck Extreme cable fitting (e.g., STE050DATAS) that matches the enclosure and the specific cable being used. Refer to the product table in the instruction sheet for specifications.
- Prepare the Cable Armor
Determine the required working length of conductors inside the enclosure or device. Carefully remove a portion of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor. Use a hacksaw to cut the armor, then trim the outer jacket to achieve the exposed armor strip length indicated in the product table (Figure 1). CAUTION: Be extremely careful not to nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.
- Prepare the Cable Strip Length
Ensure the cable's strip length, which is the length of the exposed conductors, is equal to the length of the glandnut. Consult the provided table (Figure 2) for the appropriate strip length for your specific fitting and cable.
- Feed Cable into Gland Funnel
Insert the prepared cable through the gland funnel entry. Push the cable until its armor firmly contacts the armor stop inside the fitting (Figure 3). Improper positioning of the cable armor may result in improper cable armor grounding. If the inner conductor bundle does not pass through, proceed to the next step to remove the armor stop.
- (Optional) Remove Armor Stop
If the inner conductor bundle cannot pass through the fitting, unscrew and discard the armor stop (Figure 6). After removing the armor stop, repeat Step 5 to feed the cable through the gland funnel.
- Secure and Seal the Gland Nut
Tighten the gland nut until an appropriate seal is achieved, or to the maximum torque specified in the product table (Figure 4). Verify that the bushing and collar ring seal evenly around the cable's outer jacket and are flush with the glandnut face (Figure 5). Ensure the cable remains centered within the fitting to obtain an optimal and secure seal.
