Installation instructions for nVent RAYCHEM E-40 end seal kit. For use with all nVent RAYCHEM XTV, KTV, HTV and VPL heat ing cables.

WARNING: To prevent elec tri cal shock, short cir cuit or arc ing, this prod uct must be in stalled cor rect ly and water ingress must be avoided before and during the in stal la tion.
Before installing this product, read the installation instructions completely.

• Earth fault equipment protection is required for each circuit.
• De-energise circuits before installation or servicing.
• Keep ends of Trace heaters and kit components dry before and during installation.
• The electrically conductive covering of this trace heater shall be connected to a suitable earthing terminal.
• The presence of the trace heaters shall be made evident by the posting of caution signs or markings at appropriate locations and/or at frequent intervals along the circuit.
• The insulation resistance of the trace heater shall be measured and recorded after installation and shall not less than 20 Mohm.
• Persons involved in the installation and testing of electric trace heating systems shall be suitably trained in all special techniques required.
• Installation shall be carried out under the supervision of a qualified person.
• Refer to installation manual. A ground fault circuit interrupter shall be used with this device.

Important note: Heat shrink technique for E-40 kits – Step 9

Heat gun power for optimal shrinking time – 3000 W or greater is recommended. Lower power heat guns may work, but may require more time.
Recommended heat gun temperature: 600-650°C

1. Set heat gun at maximum temperature and maximum air flow.
2. Starting on cable end of heat shrink, hold heat gun in one position over the translucent heat shrink tubing until it turns clear (+/– 1 min). Then slowly move the heat gun around all sides until the heat shrink turns clear in this segment.
3. Slowly move to an adjacent unshrunk translucent position and repeat for this next segment.
4. Slowly continue along the length of heat shrink, rotating the heat gun at each segment until complete. Installation typically takes several minutes.
5. Keep heat gun as close as possible to heat shrink (5 mm) but do not allow it to touch cable or heat shrink (to avoid burning and damaging materials).
