1. INTRODUCTION
SDE Premium Crimping Die Assemblies 91965-[ ]
(Figure 1) are designed to crimp the connectors in
Figure 2 onto wire when used in an SDE 1600 Power
Unit 1583034-[ ]. Refer to Figure 2 for a list of
connectors and the appropriate wire sizes.
Refer to instructions packaged with SDE 1600 Power
Unit for information concerning the power unit
1583034-[ ].
NOTE
i
Dimensions in this document are in metric units
[with U.S. customary units in brackets].
2. DESCRIPTION
Each crimping die assembly consists of two indenter
dies and two anvil dies, which when closed form two
crimping chambers. The larger crimping chambers
crimp the insulation of the connector onto the
insulation of the wire. The smaller crimping chamber
crimps the center contact onto the center conductor of
the wire. Each die is held in the SDE 1600 power tool
by shoulder screws.
3. DIE INSTALLATION (Figure 3)
3.1. Die Installation
1. Turn off the SDE 1600 Power Unit and
disconnect it from the power supply.
2. Depress the lever on the power unit to open
the die holders.
3. Install indenter dies in the stationary jaw of the
tool frame. Align the dies with the retaining screw
hole, then secure dies with the die-retaining
screws. Do NOT fully tighten dies.
4. Install anvil dies in the movable jaw of the tool
frame. Align the dies with the retaining screw
hole, then secure dies with the die-retaining
screws. Do NOT fully tighten.
5. Release the lever on the power unit. This
allows spring pressure to close the jaws. The dies
will align themselves.
6. Install the locator assembly (packaged
separately) to the die assembly.
7. Securely tighten the die retaining screws while
the dies are bottomed.
NOTE
i
Dies are now installed. Die alignment and die
holding screw tightness should be checked at least
twice daily.
3.2. Die Removal
1. Depress the lever on the power unit to open
the die holders.
2. Turn off the SDE 1600 Power Unit and
disconnect it from the power supply.
3. Loosen the die holding screws and remove the
dies.
4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
Select the appropriate wire size and connector. The
wire size and insulation diameter must be within the
specified range for the connector.
For detailed information on wire strip lengths and
proper assembly of the connector, refer to the
instructions packaged with the connector.
