XS2 Sensor I/O Connectors 33
Assembly Procedure for XS2C/XS2G Connector Assemblies
1. Connector and Cable External Diameters
Connectors
for 6-, 4-, and
3-mm-diameter Cables (i.e.,
Cables that
are
5 to 6, 4 to 5, and 3 to 4 mm in diameter
respectively) are available. When assembling a Con-
nector
used with a cable,
make sure that the external
diameter
of the Connector is suited to that of the cable.
Connectors for 6-mm-diameter Cables use white
cable clamps. Connectors for 4 and 3-mm-diameter
Cables use black cable clamps.
A
watertight bushing for 6-mm-diameter Cable has no
stripe, that for 4-mm-diameter Cable has a single
stripe, and that for 3-mm-diameter Cable has two
stripes.

3. Wiring (Processing Cable End)
Soldering Model
Strip 10 mm of the Cable sheath and 4 mm of each
conductor.
Before soldering conductors and solder cap pins to-
gether, solder-coat each of them.
The
following
conditions are recommended for solder
-
ing each solder cap pin.
Soldering iron: 30 to 60 W
Soldering temperature: 280°C to 340°C
Soldering period: 3 s max.
The
length marked
*A should be 6.5 mm max., other
-
wise the proper enclosure rating of the connector will
not be maintained.
Solderless Model
•Crimping
Strip 14 mm of the Cable sheath and 4 mm of each
conductor.
Make
sure that each conductor
is not damaged and its
end strands are not spread out.
Mount the XY2F-0003 Locator to DMC’s AFM8
(M25520/2-01) Press-fit Tool, both of which are sold
separately,
and set the selector dial of the Crimp T
ool
to 6.
After
mounting
the solderless pins to the Locator
, fully
insert the conductors to the solderless pins.
Squeeze the handle of the Crimp Tool to press-fit the
conductors to the solderless pins.
(Squeeze the handle firmly until the handle automati-
cally returns to the release position.)

After
press-fitting
the conductors to the pins, insert the
pins into the pin clamp as shown in the illustration.
Then
make sure that the conductor colors correspond
to the pin clamp numbers that are identical to the con
-
nector pin numbers.

Tentatively
insert the pins to the pin block holes so that
the key on the pin block will coincide with the key
groove on the pin clamp. Then insert the cable along
with the pin clamp.

L-shaped Model
Mount the cover to the pin block so that the triangle
mark on the pin block will coincide with the triangle
mark on the cover.
If
the L-shaped cover is used, the relationship between
the
position of the polarity key on the engaged side and
cable
pulling
direction will be determined by the direc
-
tion in which the positioning key is inserted into the
cover, which can be rotated by 90°.
