it
is
important
that
these
instructions
are
carefully
read
and
understood
to
ensure
the

is
completely
water
tight
and

The
900
Series
Buccaneer
is
available
in

pole
versions.
The

5
and
7
pole
versions
have
a
‘Leading
Earth’
pin
arrangement
for
added
protection.
The
socket
insert
of
the
connector
should
always
be
the
live
part
of
the
connector
from
the
supply.
The
pin
insert
of
the
connector
should
always
lead
to
the
load
or
electrical
device.
The
pin
or
socket
inserts
can
be
fitted
to
any
body
style
to
provide
the
correct
arrangement
for
the
application.
To
ensure
efficient
sealing
use
only
smooth,
circular
cable
with
appropriate
gland
for
the
cable
diameter.
The
sealing
glands
supplied
with
the

and
Flex
In-line
connectors
accommodate

Assembly/Wiring instructions
1.
Remove the pin or socket insert from the housing of the connector.
There is a slot for a flat blade screwdriver in the centre of the insert.
NOTE: The inserts have a LEFT HAND THREAD and should be turned
clockwise
to remove.
2.
For Flex and In-Line connector bodies, remove the gland nut, gland
cage and gland from the rear of the housing and slide onto the
cable. NOTE for PXA version there is no gland cage. Thread the
cable through the connector body. See assembly drawings, figs. 1-5
and 8 for different body styles.
3.
Prepare the cable and bare the wire ends as shown in fig. 6, wire
stripping details.
4.
Insert the bared wire ends into the terminals on the back of the
pin/socket insert and fully tighten the wire retention screws.
NOTE: If the connector is to be used with ‘mains’ voltages, ensure
the wires are connected in the correct orientation as shown in the
diagram below.
After the wires have been connected securely, pull the cable and
insert back into the housing and tighten with a screwdriver to ensure
the insert is seated correctly.
NOTE: LEFT HAND THREAD, turn the insert
anti-clockwise
when
assembling.
When assembling the Chassis (fig 3) and Flange (fig 4 and 5)
housing types, the cable should be left free behind the panel to
prevent it twisting.
5.
For Flex and Flex In-line housings:
PX0 version: Slide the gland, gland cage and gland nut along the
cable into the body and tighten the gland nut to the appropriate
torque to seal.
Please note change to PXA assembly:
PXA version: Slide 1 washer, the gland, the final washer and gland
nut along the cable into the body and tighten to the appropriate
torque to seal then tighten clamp screws to secure. See fig 8.
6.
For the Bulkhead, Flange and Chassis body styles, correctly seat the
gaskets and housing onto the mounting surface and secure with rear
nut or screws/bolts with seals. Ensure all seals and glands are kept
clean during assembly.
NOTE: To ensure that the correct sealing properties of the connector are
achieved it is imperative that all ‘O’ rings are correctly located and
seated before assembly. Please refer to the exploded diagrams for the
locations of these seals.
