Points to note when using Heat shrink tubing
We recommend that you use shrink tubing over the solder connections in order to protect the soldered wires and to
enhance insulation. However, please be careful when applying heat in this area when installing the shrink tube so
excess heat does not bleed into or affect the resin parts as shown in the figure below.
If the product does become heated beyond the area shown and into the resin parts, please make sure to prevent the
following.
qDeformation of the C ring. This could result in prevention of locking during mating.
wMelting of some parts.
To prevent the deformation of the C rings of the receptacles and the jack, we recommend heat to be applied after
mating with a compatible plug.
Before heating, please mate the plug in the receptacle securely, then pull the back shell for checking whether it is
locked properly. If it is heated with semi-fitting, C ring may be thermally deformed with shrinking condition and it may
not be locked properly.
