Wrapping A Heat Shrinkable Sleeve Around The Connection Element - dehn HVI Conductor Installation Instructions Manual

7. Wrapping a heat shrinkable sleeve around the connection element

Applying heat shrinkable sleeves
After mounting the connection element to the HVI
kable sleeve must be wrapped around the relevant mounting areas to protect them from mechanical,
environmental or chemical influences. The connection set includes two heat shrinkable sleeves.
The following must be observed when wrapping a heat shrinkable sleeve around the
connection element:
The indicated shrinking area between the connection element and the HVI

HVI power Conductor must be observed (Fig. 6, page 13).

The heat shrinkable sleeve is applied between the front shrinking area of the relevant connection

element and the HVI
The heat shrinkable sleeves must flush with 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!
The shrinking temperatures in the shrinking area of the HVI

must not be too 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
®
HVI power Conductor may not be ensured any more. In case of low ambient/component tempe-
®
ratures, the shrinking time must be increased to ensure that the heat shrinkable sleeve is correctly
applied (emission of adhesive).
 The heat shrinkable sleeve must not trap air or form bubbles!
