Amphe-EX Series Mated Pair

INTRODUCTION
With the ever growing need for more power and
sig- nal in a smaller interface in ATEX rated areas,
Amphenol is pleased to introduce the Amphe-EX
circular connector series.
Designed for Hazardous Environments
AMPHE-EX Connector Series is designed for use in
ATEX and IECex rated areas. AMPHE-EX connectors
are equipped to handle signal, power, RF or ber optic
requirements in the most harsh environments. AMPHE-
EX connectors offer a complete array of insert patterns,
ranging from 2 # 20 contacts, right up through 79
# 22D contacts, and everything in between.
In addition, AMPHE-EX is able to provide RJ45
connections and ber optic termini into an ATEX and
IECex approved interconnect solution.
Chemical Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical
Manufacturing, Petrochemical Reneries, Land and
Offshore Drilling Platforms are just a few of the areas
that the new AMPHE-EX Series will provide
increased performance.
AMPHE-EX connectors are made from machined
aluminum components, and plated in a hard anodic
coating designed to withstand the most extreme
environments. Double-lead acme threads allow for a
self cleaning mating action that does not clog under
adverse conditions of ice, snow, mud or sand. The
specic materials and design features of the AMPHE-
EX series were originally selected to satisfy the
stringent requirements of the Military and Aerospace
industries. These connectors combine electrical and
mechanical capabilities that equal or exceed many of
the parameters established by the Military
specication MIL-5015.
Amphenol Industrial, one of the leading interconnect
suppliers to Industrial markets around the world,
welcomes this new product to it’s current offering of
harsh environment interconnect solutions.

Amphe-EXTM Series
assembly instructions
1. Read manufacturer’s assembly instructions before actually
starting to assemble connectors. Besides the matter of
instruction on correct procedures, there are two important
reasons for this preliminary step: To identify the various
component parts, and to check for any missing parts.
2. Cut cable jacket and sheathing squarely and sheathing
squarely and to correct length, using only wire strippers
that have been approved for the operation. In preparing the
individual wires in cables and harnesses for assembly, make
allowances in length for reaching the outer most circle of
contacts cavities in the conductors. The insulation should be
cut progressively longer as they extend out from the center
of the cable or harness to assure sufcient length.
3. Follow chart on Page 5 covering maximum cable stripping
lengths for effective cable gland sealing. All conductors
should be t into contact wire wells correctly. A practice
layout should be done so that an assembler can oversee
what the nished will look like when nished.
4. Before starting actual termination of wires, it is essential
that cables and harnesses be laid out in a specic order
in accordance with the wiring diagram. Proper layout will
eliminate the need for twisting and crossover of conductors.
If the wiring layout is not correct, the termination operation
will be difcult or even impossible and the chances for
making errors will be increased. Cable and harness
assemblies having a spiral layout must also be matched
carefully to the correct contacts in both the male and female
inserts.
5. Some cables that will be used will have a “basket weave”
type of armor under the outer jacket (sheath) and over the
inner jacket. Since many regulatory entities require that the
armor be grounded at least at the source end, it is benecial
to ground the armor via a spare contact within the connector.
Follow the removal of sufcient amount of outer jacket (see
chart on Page 5) ample amount of armor can be clipped
away, but not all. An adequate amount should remain in
order that a small cross-section conductor, short in length,
be woven into the remaining armor weave and either
soldered or covered with mastic impregnated heat shrink,
creating an intimate bond to the armor. At the opposite end
of the short piece of wire a contact should be crimped and
inserted into the insert.
6. Use only correctly sized and ingress protected certied
glands provided to assure resistance to moisture and other
contaminates.
7. Use only the proper crimping tools that have been set or
calibrated with precision gages.
8. Make certain that all contacts are the correct size before
attempting to assemble in insert cavities. This point is
particularly important when both power and control types of
contacts are used in the same connector.
9. Be sure that any ground contacts (when applicable) are
correctly located.
10. Seat all contacts properly so that they will not be damaged or
become disengaged during connectors mating operation.
11. Use only the proper insertion tools and be sure that they are
aligned axially when pushing contact into their fully seated
position.
12. When inserts have more cavities than the conductors, plug
unused cavities with furnished contacts.
13. After all terminated contacts are inserted in their respective
cavities and inspected (detailed on page 5), the cable
adapter should be installed and tightened with a strap
wrench (detailed on page 8).
14. When handling cables, use adequate support to prevent
damage to the internal wires. Exd glands are intended for
sealing purposes and should not be used as a cable grip.
15. If for any reason, terminated conductors have to be removed
from an insert because of an assembly error or change in
circuitry, be sure to remove the cable gland or cable adapter
rst before extracting the contact and re-inserting it.
16. If one of the connector poles is a ground wire, make sure
that it is grounded properly before the connector actually is
engaged.
17. When connectors have the same conguration are to
be mounted closer together, different or alternate key
arrangements should be used to prevent mismatching and
possible damage to the electrical system.
18. Always inspect all aspects of connector assembly operations
before putting connector into actual operation.
19. Crimping and terminating of conductors to contacts must be
done carefully. Make certain that all wire strands are fully
bottomed in contact wells by checking through inspection
hole provided (detailed on page 5).
20. Never try to straighten bent contacts. Straightening cannot
be done properly and the plating on contacts very likely will
be marred. This will result in a high resistance connection
and will expose the base material to possible corrosion.
21. Each assembly operator should be his own inspector. Worn,
damaged, or defective tolls should be reported immediately
to foreman and supervisors. Assembly operators should
be indoctrinated with this attitude and made to understand
the importance of always guarding quality. Assembly
workmanship is signicant factor in terminating the quality of
multiple contact connectors. Quality cannot be “inspected”
into connectors; it must be “built-in” during each and every

When inserting or removing contacts, rst remove securing
devices and slide devices over wires in proper sequence
Consult page 14 for correct insertion or removal tool (metal or
plastic) according to contact size
Insertion:
Slip correct size tool (with plastic tool, use colored end) over wire
insulation and slide forward until tool bottoms against rear contact
shoulder. Contact must be aligned with grommet hole and not
inserted at an angle. Push forward until contact is felt to snap into
position within insert. Remove tool, holding forward on the wire
in order to prevent contact from being dragged back with tool.
Gently pull each wire to ensure contact is properly seated.
Uncrimped Contacts and Sealing Plugs: Fill in unused holes with
an uncrimped contact. Follow with a teon sealing plug, small
diameter rst, so that one end protrudes out the rear of grommet.
See Table 2 for sealing plug application data. (Optional insertion
of large end rst is possible, but not recommended).
Slide securing devices forward and tighten using connector
pliers. Connector holding tools are recommended while tightening
back accessories.
CAUTION: WHEN INSERTING OR REMOVING CONTACTS,
DO NOT SPREAD OR ROTATE TOOL TIPS.
Removal:
Slip correct sized tool (with plastic tool, use white end) over
wire insulation and slide forward on wire until tool tip enters rear
grommet and comes to a positive stop on contact shoulder.
Grip wire, and simultaneously remove tool, contact and wire.
(On occasion, it may be necessary to remove tool, rotate 90°
and reinsert).
Unwired Contacts: Remove sealing plugs. Standard Removal
Tools: Using applicable removal tool, insert and carefully work
tool tips over wire well. When tips bottom, contact will release
from internal retention clip. Push contact from connector front
face out connector rear with round ended non-metallic rod. Rod
will follow contact. (See page 14 for applicable removal tool and
correct rod diameter). Unwired Removal Tool (11-10050-XX):

assembly instructions
Preparing a Bulkhead Receptacle Connector
for Enclosure Mounting.
All receptacle shells have, contained within them, contact
positioning inserts that are permanently installed by the factory.
1. Slide the Bulkhead Adapter up onto the cable, or conductor
group; knurled end rst.
2. Terminate each conductor with it’s proper contact.
3. Populate the insert with contacts by poking each of the wired
contacts into it’s respective insert cavity, following an
electrical schematic for the system you are wiring.
4. Slide the bulkhead adapter back down the conductors, and
screw it onto the panel mount receptacle.
5. Use a strap wrench to tighten the bulkhead adapter until fully
tightened to shoulder.
6. Referring to Amphe-EX potting instructions, stand the
assembly vertical, conductors pointing up, and ll the
adapter with cement to a level 1/16” below the top of the
adapter. After curing, this assembly is now permanently
cemented, non-separable and non-repairable, and can be
mounted to the bulkhead.
7. It is best to t the connector to the bulkhead at a time
when the free end of the cable is not terminated to the
electrical system. If this is not possible, then it is necessary
to rotate the connector assembly counter-clockwise to wind
the cable/ conductors so that when the assembly is threaded
into a bulkhead in the subsequent instruction, the cable/
conductors regain their most natural lay, once the connector
is mounted to the bulkhead. (Rotations required to be
determined by end-user).
8. Thread the receptacle assembly into the bulkhead until the
seal touches down, then tighten it by the smallest fraction of
a revolution to the rst instance that the mounting holes line
up with the threaded enclosure holes.
9. Position the protective covers’ lanyard tab over one of
the mounting holes and screw a fastener through it. Apply
the remaining fasteners to the other three holes with torque
suitable for screw size used.
10. Install the protective cover and tighten fully.
11. Secure both grub screws to prevent unauthorized removal.
AMPHE-EXTM Potting Instructions
All cable adapters, other than ones suited for mating with an
EX- certied gland, must be lled with epoxy (potted).
The material certied for use in lling this connector line is
Epoxies Etc., 503150FR/Cat190. The user or installer shall
consider the performance of these materials with regard to attack
by aggressive substances that may be present in the hazardous
area. This material is a two-component casting system with a
100:5 volume.
More information is available by contacting the following
authorized suppliers:

Bulkhead Adapter
Bulkhead adapters should be lled to a maximum of 1/16” below
the top of the adapter. Care must be exercised so that the potting
compound does not contaminate the bulkhead threads, or spill
onto the outer surfaces of the receptacle ange.
In preparation for potting, the receptacle is to be mated to it’s
corresponding plug, so that all contacts are mated and in their
optimal post-potted position. When potting, the receptacle ange
should be rigidly xtured in a horizontal position. This xture must
be capable of holding the mated connector pair in that position
for a minimum of 2 hours at room temperature. The exiting
conductor/cable should be xtured inline above the connector
pair, during the entire curing process.
23
Mixing/Potting Instructions
1. CAUTION: Wear goggles or other eye protection during
all operations.
2. The potting compound is premeasured in “burst bag”
packaging. This packaging consists of a single plastic bag
that is compartmentalized into two chambers, each
containing one part of the two part compound. The
segregating feature is called a ‘burst seal’.
3. Lay the bag on a at surface. Choosing either end of the
bag that is parallel to the burst seal, start coiling/rolling
the bag so that the compound in that half of the bag is
pushed up against the burst seal.
4. Squeeze and apply pressure to the rolled side of the bag so
that the compound bursts through the burst seal and joins
the compound on the other side of the bag. Unroll the bag.
5. Mix the entire contents of the bag, by alternately squeezing
the bag, and working the bag across the edge of a table, to
fully move the entire contents of the bag, back and forth,
between chambers. Work the material in this manner,
constantly, for a minimum of 4 minutes.
6. Once mixed, squeeze all the contents away from one
corner of the bag. fully clearing that corner of the bag of
all compound.
7. Make a 3/16” pouring spout by snipping off the bags
cleared corner.
8. To minimize air entrapment, slowly pour the compound
into the back end of the bulkhead adapter, to a level shown
in Figure Z.
9. Set the bag containing the remaining compound aside,
so that it may cure. After cure, the bag may be disposed of
safely, along with common consumer refuse. CAUTION:
As the remaining compound cures, the bag will become hot.
