AI500 – CONTROL MK IV INLINE CONNECTOR TERMINATION PROCEDURE Issue G – 16Mar17
(incorporating AI 501- Connector Hook Up and AI 353 – BR Termination Procedure)
IMPORTANT NOTE
1. Hawke International does not recommend the use of their ControlEx Connectors in applications where rigid PVC / SWA / PVC power
cabling (typically to BS 6346 standards) is used in portable / semi-portable applications.
2. Barrier type glands must be fitted to flexible power and loose filled control cabling entering the connectors to maintain the Exd
protection concept and to reduce the potential for core movements within the cable being transferred to the connector’s internal
components. Where connectors are terminated to topside umbilical cables, or portable connectors, a barrier type cable gland
should always be used.
3. Hawke Ex Connector products are designed to be used in multi-voltage applications in circuits up to 660V AC/DC. It is possible that on
certain installations, there may be a mix of applications utilising different voltages on the Connector products. In these instances, the
installer / circuit designer must ensure that the plugs and sockets, or their associated cabling, is clearly marked with the correct circuit
voltage and current rating to ensure that the equipment being supplied is matched correctly with the supply voltage. The variable
insert positions which are a feature of the Connectors may also be used to provide additional means of safety in these applications.
1. Remove the CP/CR connector assembly, electrical insert and cable gland
(sold separately) from their packaging.
Min 130mm
2. Terminate the cable into the cable gland in accordance with the manufacturer’s
Instructions. Ensure a minimum tail length of 130mm.
3. Unscrew the rear engaging nut from the connector shell, removing the rear shell and keyway tube.
Tab Washer Internal Earth Internal Spacer Body

Rear Engaging Nut Rear Shell Insert Cap
4. Slide the rear engaging nut over the rear shell as shown
and screw the rear shell onto the entry thread of the
cable gland ensuring there is a sealing washer between
the gland and rear shell. A small amount of Loctite 638
or equivalent can be added to the cable gland thread at
this stage to further help prevent loosening of the cable
gland in portable applications.
Where a thread adaptor is being used, ensure a suitable

IP seal is fitted between the cable gland and thread adaptor, and thread adaptor & running coupler. If the thread adaptor
has an integral O-Ring, please ensure this makes full contact with the cable gland and running coupler to maintain the IP
protection. Check to ensure the captive O-Ring seal on the rear shell is in place and is undamaged.

If the tab washer is being used, ensure this is fitted in the orientation shown. Use the flats on the rear shell to further
tighten.

7. Proceed to step 8 if internal earthing is not required.
NOTE: If internal earthing is not being used, the internal earth crimp must not be fitted and the grub screw in the rear shell
must be removed
If earthing is required slide the internal crimp (supplied with CP/CR inserts) over the earth conductor and crimp using
suitable tool. The stud can then be fitted into the rear shell and fastened using the grub screw shown. The stud on the
earth crimp should not protrude from the outer diameter of the rear shell. Adjust if necessary.
Stud must not protrude

8. a) Solder inserts – black (1.5 – 35mm²). Tin the conductors and fill the solder cups on the back of the inserts with solder
as required Solder conductors in place and remove any solder spikes/excess from the solder cup.
It is advised that heat shrink should be fitted over the connection at this point
b) Solder inserts – white (1.5 – 4mm2). As above, however, inserts should be soldered outside of the insert body and not
fully assembled. If the contacts are to be solder terminated to the conductors, this must be done prior to insertion
through the rear contact retainer.
It is advised that heat shrink should be fitted over the connection at this point
Then follow (c ii & iii).
c) Crimp Inserts (1.5 – 4mm²) – white.
i) Crimp the conductors into the contacts using Weidmuller CTX CM

1.6/2.5 crimp tool HCT1, or Astro Crimp Tool HCT2. For 0.75 to 1.5mm²
conductors use the 1.5 die. For 1.6 to 4mm² use the 2.5 die.
It is advised that heat shrink should be fitted over the connection at
this point
ii) Feed the contacts through the required numbered hole on the rear contact retainer and slide the insertion tool
over the contacts up to the groove (one end for pin and one for socket). Clip the groove on the contact into
position in the rear contact retainer with the tool.

contacts into position. Ensure the 2 smaller pips are also in line
i) iia) iib) iii)
d) Crimp Inserts (6 – 35mm²) – black. Undo the grub screws on the crimp barrels and slide them off the back of the
contacts. Slide the conductors into the back of the barrel. Orientate the barrel so that the grub screws are pointing
outwards and crimp with a suitable crimp tool.
Push the barrels back onto the rear of the contacts and tighten grub screw into the groove on the contact. Back off
grub screw half a turn on crimp barrels of 10mm² or larger to allow them to slide up and down the contact slightly
Orientate grub screws

9. Clip spacer tube over conductors. Bend conductors slightly so that there is no or minimal gap between the insert/spacer
tube and rear shell. On crimp insert of 10mm² or larger, slide the crimp barrels up and down the contacts to achieve this
and then lock them in place by tightening the grub screw’s on the crimp barrels.
The insert has 3 pips, shown below, which should be located as shown. The main
centre keyway should align with the centre of the spacer tube
NOTE: If being used on offshore topside applications where extreme temperature

fluctuations or extreme levels of humidity may be present, it is advisable to use Dow
Corning 4 Electrical Insulating Compound within the spacer tube to help prevent any
possible humidity build-up. See point 15 below
10. Looking from the front of the connector shell, align the key on the insert to the required key inside the connector and
slide the whole assembly into the shell. The EX16 connector has 3 keyways, and all other connectors have 5 possible
keyways

11. Fully screw the rear engaging nut onto the thread on the connector shell, do not rotate the connector shell during this
process. Tighten grub screw in rear engaging nut. There should be a gap visible of no more than 1mm between running
coupler and shell

12. If the tab washer is being used, fix the tab using the button head screw to the rear engaging nut. Bend the tabs over the
flats of the cable gland.
13. If being used, terminate the external earth to the ring terminal crimp provided with the insert. Remove the button head
screw and spring washer from the rear engaging nut. Attach the crimp to the rear engaging nut as shown above

Addition of Dow Corning 4 Electrical Insulating Compound
15. If additional protection is required due to extreme atmospheric conditions, before inserting the assembled connector
insert and spacer tube into the connector shell (step 10 above) Dow Corning 4 Electrical Insulating Compound can be
used to fill the spacer tube. It is recommended that the running coupler be filled, along with the inner face of the insert to
ensure no humidity can affect the contacts

MK IV Hook Up Procedure
Before commencing hook up, a visual inspection should be carried out on the cable / gland / connector assembly. The
assembly should be checked to ensure that all of the assembly components are tight. If the assembly components have
loosened during transportation / cable installation, they should be retightened in accordance with the relevant assembly
instruction sheets without twisting the cable in the cable gland / connector assembly.
Ensure gland (and any thread
