B Gateway transportation with shrink wrap cabling
This tutorial walks you through how to safely shrink wrap harness on a B Gateway.
- Cut a piece of shrink wrap long enough to cover the connection between the power harness and the gateway cable.
- Approximately 6-8 inches.
- Slide the shrink wrap onto the power harness cable.
- Connect the power harness to the gateway cable.
- Position the shrink wrap so that it is centered on the connection between the two cables (ensuring that the connectors are covered completely).
- Use a torch to carefully heat up the shrink wrap.
- Move the torch back and forth in smooth, even motions (be sure to heat from all sides).
- This might take a minute or so for the shrink wrap to heat and constrict over the cables.
- Once the shrink wrap is fully heated and snug against the cables, put on heat-resistant gloves.
- Pinch the ends of the shrink wrap to create a closure at either end of the shrink wrap.
- Your gateway is now ready to be mounted.
