Publication 1792D-IN009B-EN-P - September 2000

Attach the Seal Block

The seal block has piercing contacts. Contact occurs when you attach
the seal block to the cable base. The seal block is designed to attach
to the base in only one direction.

To install the seal block:

1. Position the seal block over the cable base.

a. Match the arrows on the bottom of the base and seal block.
b. Align the four captive screws in the seal block with the

accepting receptacles in the base.

2. Tighten the screws with a torque of 8 to10 inch-pounds to

secure the module to the base. To assure even piercing,
tighten each screw a little at a time.

ATTENTION

!

• The seal block has extremely sharp piercing

contacts. Do not press against them with
your fingers. You may be injured.

• You must properly align the seal block when

you attach it to the base. This will maintain
the integrity of the sealed base. You can only
pierce the cable once. Once pierced, the seal
block must not be removed. This will ensure
the inner conductors are not exposed by
pulling out the piercing contacts.

Only one attempt to pierce the cable is allowed.
