Safety Instructions
DANGER: When installing electrical power system accessories,
failure to follow applicable personal safety requirements and written
installation instructions could result in fire or explosion and serious
or fatal injuries.
To avoid risk of accidental fire or explosion when using gas torches,
always check all connections for leaks before igniting the torch and
follow the torch manufacturer's safety instructions.
To minimize any effect of fumes produced during installation, always
provide good ventilation of confined work spaces.
As Tyco Electronics has no control over field conditions which
influence product installation, it is understood that the user must
take this into account and apply his own experience and expertise
when installing product.

Recommended Tyco Electronics Torches
Install heat-shrinkable cable accessories with a "clean burning" torch,
i.e., a propane torch that does not deposit conductive contaminants
on the product.
Clean burning torches include the Tyco Electronics FH-2629,
FH-2649 (uses refillable propane cylinders) and FH-2618A (uses
disposable cylinder).
Adjusting the Torch
Adjust regulator and torch as required to provide an overall 12- inch
bushy flame. The FH-2629 will be all blue, the other torches will have
a 3- to 4-inch yellow tip. Use the yellow tip for shrinking.
Regulator Pressure
FH-2618A Full pressure
FH-2649 25 psig
FH-2629 15 psig
Cleaning the Cable
Use an approved solvent, such as the one supplied in the P63 Cable
Prep Kit, to clean the cable. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Failure to follow these instructions could lead to
product failure.
Some newer solvents do not evaporate quickly and need to be
removed with a clean, lint-free cloth. Failure to do so could change
the volume resistivity of the substrate or leave a residue on the
surface. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
General Shrinking Instructions
• Apply outer 3- to 4-inch tip of the flame to heat-shrinkable material
with a rapid brushing motion
• Keep flame moving to avoid scorching
• Unless otherwise instructed, start shrinking tube at center,
working flame around all sides of the tube to apply uniform heat
To determine if a tube has completely recovered, look for the following,
especially on the back and underside of the tube:
1. Uniform wall thickness
2. Conformance to substrate
3. No flat spots or chill marks
4. Visible sealant flow if the tube is coated
Note: When installing multiple tubes, make sure that the surface of
the last tube is still warm before positioning and shrinking the next
tube. If installed tube has cooled, re-heat the entire surface.
