FAQs
What is the maximum wire size this connector can accommodate?
The Klauke 700 is designed for wires with a maximum cross-section of 6 mm².
What does the yellow color signify?
The yellow color coding typically indicates that the connector is suitable for wire gauges around 10-12 AWG (approximately 4-6 mm²).
Can this connector be used for uninsulated connections?
No, the Klauke 700 is an insulated connector and is designed for applications where electrical insulation is required.
What type of tool is needed for installation?
A compatible crimping tool specifically designed for insulated butt connectors and the correct wire gauge (6 mm²) is required.
Is this connector suitable for high-temperature applications?
The PA insulation material has a moderate temperature rating. For extreme high-temperature applications, consult the Klauke technical specifications or consider uninsulated or high-temperature rated connectors.
How many connectors are included in a single purchase?
The product description indicates '1pc', meaning one connector is supplied per purchase.
Troubleshooting
Connection is loose after crimping.
Ensure the correct crimping tool and die size are used for 6 mm² wire. Re-crimp with firm, consistent pressure.
Wire pulls out of the connector.
Verify that the wire was stripped to the correct length and that the crimp was applied effectively, securing the wire's conductor within the connector barrel.
Electrical continuity is poor or absent.
Check that the wire strands are fully inserted into the connector barrel and that the crimp has made good contact with the conductor. Ensure the wire is within the specified 6 mm² range.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides secure and reliable electrical connections.
- Durable construction ensures longevity.
- Insulation offers enhanced safety.
- Corrosion-resistant tin-plated contacts.
- Easy identification via color coding.
Cons
- Specific to 6 mm² wire gauge; not versatile for other sizes.
- Requires appropriate crimping tools for proper installation.
- Only one piece included per pack, potentially requiring multiple purchases for larger jobs.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Strip approximately 5-7 mm of insulation from the ends of the two wires you intend to join.
- Insert one stripped wire end into one side of the Klauke 700 butt connector.
- Using a compatible crimping tool, crimp the connector firmly onto the wire.
- Insert the second stripped wire end into the other side of the connector.
- Crimp the connector firmly onto the second wire.
Compatibility:
- This connector is specifically designed for wires with a cross-section of 6 mm² (AWG 10-11).
- Requires a properly sized crimping tool designed for insulated connectors of this gauge.
Care:
- Keep connectors in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the tin plating.
- Avoid excessive force or improper crimping, which can damage the connector or compromise the connection.
