How to Install STX Series Star Teck Cable Fittings
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for preparing cables and installing STX Series Star Teck cable fittings, including the STX150-550 model, using liquid sealing compound. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes.
Estimated time: 2h
Tools needed:
Hacksaw, Wire strippers, Wrench, Damp cloth, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Supplies needed:
Cable (power or shielded data), SC4-KIT-1 LIQUID SEALANT, Fiber damming material
- De-energize Circuits
WARNING: Verify that all circuits are de-energized before beginning any installation or maintenance procedures to prevent the risk of electrical shock.
- Prepare Cable Armor
Determine the required working length of conductors inside the enclosure. Remove a portion of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor, then cut the armor using a hacksaw. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.
- Adjust Armor Strip Length
Trim the outer jacket to achieve the exposed armor strip length specified in the product table for your specific STX model (e.g., 1.375-1.545 inches for STX150-550).
- Feed Cable
Feed the prepared cable through the gland nut opening and push it until the cable armor firmly contacts the internal end stop.
- Tighten Gland Nut
Securely tighten the gland nut to achieve an appropriate seal, or to the maximum torque specified in the table (e.g., 1200 IN-LBS for STX150-550). Ensure the bushing and collar ring seal evenly around the cable's outer jacket and are flush with the gland nut face, keeping the cable centered for an optimal seal.
- Disassemble Fitting
Loosen the union to disassemble the hub from the body sub-assembly. Then, unscrew the sealing chamber from the body sub-assembly.
- Prepare Conductors
Trim the inner jacket to a length of 1/8” to 3/8” to expose the conductor bundle. If working with shielded data cables, also remove the outer (overall) shield and any filler materials, taking care not to damage inner shields or conductors.
- Pack Fiber Damming Material
Tightly pack the fiber damming material into all voids between the conductors and the body. If applicable, spread the strands of any uninsulated grounding conductor.
- Reattach Sealing Chamber
Screw the sealing chamber back onto the body sub-assembly until it is completely seated.
- Mix and Dispense Liquid Sealant
Position the cable and fitting vertically. Mix the SC4-KIT-1 liquid sealing compound according to its package instructions. Dispense the compound into the end of the sealing chamber until the level stabilizes and fills to the top (for STX150-550).
- Clean Excess Compound
CAUTION: Immediately remove any excess compound material from the exterior of the sealing chamber using a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners such as powder cleaners, sandpaper, steel wool, or a wire brush, as these may damage the flame path.
- Mount Hub and Secure Assembly
Mount the hub in the desired location. After the sealing compound has solidified (approximately 1 hour), place the encapsulated assembly into the hub and secure it by tightening the union until it bottoms out (metal-to-metal contact).
