5.12. Screen wires soldering.

5.12.1. Install silicone profile on the conical part of the branch-pipe.
5.12.2. Fix screen wires over cable sheath by armored tape 27. Fixing position – 40 mm from
the branch pipe edge toward the cable.
Warning: Al screen wires are susceptible to fatigue failure. Al screen wires should be
bended/unbended as least as possible amount of times with extreme care.
5.12.3. Bend screen wires over the tape 27 winding.
5.12.4. Cut the screen wires overlapping the cylindrical part of the branch pipe for 30 mm.
5.12.5. In case of Al screen wires grind their 50 mm ends (at least) by sandpaper.
Figure 25 Soldering of screen’s wires to the 5.12.6. Clean and degrease screen wires by
branch-pipe dustless cloth soaked by purified petrol.
5.12.7. Fix the screen’s wires with a bandage
of tin plated copper wire d=1mm.
5.12.8. The part of cable which is lower than
place of soldering must be protected by a
glass tape.
5.12.9. In case of Al screen wires their
soldering zones should be coated by P200A
solder (Zn-Sn).
5.12.10. Solder the screen wires to the
branch pipe in near the copper bandage
using POS 30 solder. Solder in an «apple»
pattern.
5.12.11. Wipe the surface of cable and the
surface of the branch-pipe with a dustless
napkin which is watered in purified petrol.
5.12.12. Knock the screen wires in the place
of the bend with a rubber mallet (No. 25,
Appendix 3).
Attention! Repeated bending/unbending of the wires is not allowed - this may lead to wire
breaking.
5.12.13. Wind mastic tape on lower bending of screen wires.

5.12.14. Wind «tape 33» in two layers on the place of soldering. Start winding on the branch-
pipe at a distance 20mm from the top edge of «apple» and stop on the cable at a distance
20mm from the bending of the screen’s wires.
5.12.15. Wind mastic tape on the cable sheath on place of heat-shrinkable tube.
5.12.16. Pull heat-shinkable tube onto the branch-pipe not reaching 15mm the lower surface of
the flange of the branch-pipe.
5.12.17. Shrink the tube with a «soft» fire of a gas burner.
5.12.18. Wait until heat-shrinkable tube cools down.
