Assembly of the loop tester

info

The loop tester is a module that checks the operation of compressed cables. If the cables are compressed correctly, the indicator on the module turns green, otherwise it turns red.

Components required for assembly (Picture 1):

  • All parts labeled Tester (two bases, two walls, two transparent panels);
  • additional details (transparent panel with cutouts);
  • Loop tester board;
  • fasteners (brass racks PCHSS M3x10 – 4 pcs., countersunk head screws M3x10 – 8 pcs., cylindrical head screws M3x6 – 4 pcs.).

Components for building the module

Assembly order

1) Install two side walls on the lower base (marked: tester ↓). To do this, combine the projections of the side walls with the holes in the base and snap (Picture 2):
