CONNECTOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Amphe-PV H4 Plus™ Connectors AI-10

1. The connector must be isolated and disconnected from the power supply during the assembly or disassembly process. 2. Do not disconnect under load. 3. The mated Amphenol PV connectors are IP68 (under water 1meter for 24 hour) compliant in the function of sealing. However please prevent connectors from being immersed in water. 4. The product may be assembled and installed only by qualified and trained specialists who observe the applicable safety regulations. 5. Amphenol declines any liability in the event of failure to comply with this assembly instruction. 6. Connectors not made by Amphenol which can be mated with Amphenol elements and in some cases are also described as “Amphenol-compatible”do not conform to the requirements for safe electrical connection with long-term stability, and for safety reasons must not be plugged together with Amphenol elements. Amphenol can therefore accept no liability for damage which occurs as a result of mating these connectors that lack Amphenol approval with Amphenol elements. 7. Please be aware that this 3rd Party laboratory test is just a reference for application. It is the customer’s responsibility to validate connector durability in system function at specific and extreme environment conditions, we recommend customer to consider a margin in actual applications with high current situations that can lead to overheating. 8. Amphenol warns customers and users to avoid exposure of chemical substances in the connector application environment. Chemical compatibility of thermoplastics e.g. Lexan polycarbonate is dependent on contact time, temperature, concentration and stress (external stress to which the application is subjected to). Chemicals exposure can result in discoloration, softening, swelling, cracking or loss of properties of the thermoplastics. DO NOT allow the connectors contact any chemicals including below but not limited as they may cause stress cracking. Grease, Oils, Mold Release Agent, Binder, Alcohols, Fatty hydrocarbons, Acid, Aromatic hydrocarbon, Ketones, Halogenated hydrocarbon, Organic solvents including Gasoline, Kerosene, Ethyl acetate and others, Cleaning agents. Detailed refer to file. See Appendix A or file: WI -S047-ENG (Chemicals Exposure Vheck List). The list of chemicals provided by Amphenol does not include all chemicals that may appear in the production and subsequent use of customers. Customers are requested to verify their impact on products and take corresponding to risk management measures for chemical contamination. Amphenol does not accept any return requests for products contaminated with chemicals. Part 1: Safety & Caution

4.3: Adjust Crimping T ool If needed, following below steps to adjust the pressure force to optimize crimping. I. Loosen the screw (A) with a screwdriver. II. Turn the dial counter (B) clockwise (+) to increase the crimping force. This also reduces the jaw spread. III. Turn the dial clockwise (-) to reduce the strength of the crimping force. This also increases the jaw spread. Do exceed 180N. IV. After changing the setting, make sure the screw is adequately tightened. Emergency releaseReplaceable dies Replaceable locator Pressure adjustment for actuation force 4.4: Crimping quality verification Great variations exist in the diameter, quantity and cross section of strands between PV cables made by different manufactures, so the above dimensions are only for reference. In order to get quality crimping, please verify the pull force and crimping cross section. Pull force between the contact and cable should meet to UL486a-486b, refer to the table in section 4.2 The cross section inspection standard:

• The crimp shall have all cable strands compressed into a hexagonal shape with minimal voids.
• No cracks/fractures in crimp material or wire stranding
• Ensure symmetrical and uniform distribution of strands
• All strands are captured within crimp
• Crimp wings are fully closed at surface. Crimping wings are curled evenly and uniform
• The burr on the base of the crimp must not exceed 0.1mm, and will not scratch the sealing component in the next assembly process
• Crimping cross section criteria can be found in USCAR21as below

• Put the contact at right crimping die and position.
• Insert striped cable into contact barrel and insure all conductor strands are captured in the contact barrel and the conductors are visible in the inspection hole for CF (cold formed) terminal. Crimping UTXTC0003 UTXTC0004 UTXTC0005
• Close the hand shank of the tool until they open automatically.
• Crimp to meet the requirements in section 4.4.
• Regularly check crimping height, and adjust the crimping force to get the perfect crimping quality. 4.5: Crimping Operation

4.6: Crimping T ool Operation 1. Misuse may cause personal injury, keep crimper out of reach from children. 2. Do not insert fingers into the jaws of the tool. 3. Before using the crimper, clean the die to prevent oil or other chemical material from polluting the contact and connector. 4. Crimp tool and crimp dies are prone to wear, regularly check the quality of Crimping Height, pull out force. Tool and die wear can be compensated by removing the lock screw and turning the adjuster. Part 5: Connector Assembly Process 5.1.1: Insert the Crimped Contact into the Body Insert terminal into back of male or female connector. A “click” should be heard or felt when the terminal is seated in the right position. Terminals cannot be removed once seated (Terminals are crimped per tool application 3.2 to 3.4) Inspection Use the contact depth inspection tool to check if the contact was in right position. The edge of connector housing should be located within the white area of the contact depth inspection tool. Female Connector Male Connector Picture 5.1.1 Picture 5.1.3 Female Connector Male Connector Picture 5.1.2 Picture 5.1.4 If the terminals are not inserted in the correct position, the connector itself will not be fully assembled, the contacts will not mate as intended, which will cause the connector to overheat and possibly cause a fire or safety risk.

5.1.2: Tightening the Back Cap The Amphe-PV H4 Plus connector back cap must be screwed up with a proper torque range of 2.6 to 2.9 N·m. Over torqueing may damage insulation on the cable, lead to a sealing failure and electrical leakage. Under torqueing may lead to a sealing failure, and compromise the reliability of the connector. Action surface of connector, screw end cap and hold body of connector, as below picture 5.1.5. 5.2: Panel Mounted End Assembly 5.2.1: Connector Assembly Mount the connectors to the panel of invertor or converter, see picture 5.2.1. Picture 5.1.4 Action surface Picture 5.2.1 Amphenol specified wrench tool (H4TW0001) can be used in this step. Customer can choose to use open-end back cap spanner (Use H4TTW100) if customer uses electric torque controlled wrench tool to tighten the cap.

Use the wrench tool to tighten the nut to the panel, see picture 5.2.2. The nut must be screwed to a proper torque range of 1.1 to 1.4 N·m. Insert terminal into back of male and female connector. A “click” should be heard or felt when the terminal is seated in right position. Terminals cannot be removed once seated. If the terminals are not inserted in the correct position, the connector itself will not be fully assembled, the contacts will not mate as intended, which will cause the connector to overheat and possibly cause a fire or safety risk. Picture 5.2.2 Picture 5.2.3 Picture 5.2.4 Inspection Use the contact depth inspection tool to the check if the contact is in the right position. The edge of connector hous - ing should be located within the white area of the contact depth inspection tool. Female Connector Male Connector

5.3: Protection before Mating If the male and female connector is not inserted in a timely manner, measures should be taken to prevent dust, mois - ture, and other pollutants from the connector, that may result in terminal oxidation, or sealing failure. Dust caps are recommended (female end use UTXPF and male end use UTXPM) for protection. 5.4: Mating the male and female connectors After mating the male and female connectors, check the below items to confirm the male and female connectors were mated correctly. 1. The latch is engaged as below. 2. O-ring pressed inside and is not visible. 3. There is very small gap between the interface of male and female (gap≤0.3mm). 3 1

5.5: Un-mating the male and female connectors Use the specified tool to open the connectors. Don’t pull directly or shake the connector back and forth wildly to open the connector. Amphenol specified wrench tool (H4TW0001) or Universal tool (H4TU0000) should be used in this step for the Amphe-PV H4 Plus Series, see below picture. Wrench Tool Disconnect Universal Tool Disconnect 6: Cable Routing:

• The locking fixture of the Amphe-PV H4 Plus series can withstand pull forces of 89N min along the axial.
• External stress on the cable should be avoided; excessive cable stress along the axial for extended amounts of time; added cable stress and torque should be prohibitted, and may impact sealing and raliability of the connector
• In order to avoid excessive cable stress to connector, the cable beside connector should be kept straight, straight cable length should be at least 20mm MIN.

20mm MIN. 20mm MIN.

• Refer to cable manufacturer’s specification for minimum bending radius of cable. (Prepared by) : (Date) : (Checked by) : (Date) : 7: Storage Requirement We recommend that you store connector components at a temperature between -30°Cto +60°C and with a relative humidity of less than 70%. The components must not be exposed to moisture due to direct rainfall, condensation etc. Ensure that the individual components do not come into contact with acids, alkalis, gases, acetone or any other chemical substance that could impact the materials use. The connector can stored for two years if these conditions are met.
