Wrapping A Heat Shrinkable Sleeve Around The Head Piece / Connection Element - dehn HVI power Installation Instructions Manual

5.3 Wrapping a heat shrinkable sleeve around the head piece / connection
element
Applying heat shrinkable sleeves
After mounting the head piece / connection element to the HVI
sleeve must be wrapped around the relevant mounting areas to protect them from mechanical, en-
vironmental or chemical influences. The connection set includes two heat shrinkable sleeves.
The following must be observed when wrapping a heat shrinkable sleeve around the head
piece / connection element:
The indicated shrinking area between the head piece / connection element and the
Â
HVI power Conductor must be observed (Fig. 4).
®
The heat shrinkable sleeve is applied between the front shrinking area of the relevant head piece /
Â
connection element and the HVI
the shrinking area. If required, they must be repositioned during the shrinking on process.
The specified shrinking temperature of max. 150 °C must be observed!
Â
The shrinking temperatures in the shrinking area of the HVI
Â
high. In case of excessive shrinking temperatures, the semiconductive sheath of the HVI
Conductor can be damaged or destroyed and the function of the HVI
be ensured any more.
The heat shrinkable sleeve must not trap air or form bubbles!
