Installaon guide
1. In general
This guide shows how to splice cables with pigtails in the DIN closure FPD66. Parts of the installaon may be made by FOSS prior to delivery.
This closure may be used for up to 12 splices against pigtails. However; by factory terminated cables or direct terminaon, the closure may
hold 24 bres using the LC Quad adapter. If less bres than a full adapter front is used, the rest of the holes should be blinded using blind
plugs. This guide shows installaon with adapters poinng le (if a wall mount bracket is used), but the closure may be used poinng right. In
such a case, think mirrored when reading this manual.
You are advised to read through the full installaon guide upon beginning the installaon.
Colour codes for cables delivered by FOSS may be found under the QR code/link on the right.
2. Materials
Depending on the type of installaon and/or cable, the following may come to use:
PS-3A-X/45 Splice protector, 45 mm, 100 pack
4415 Cleaning kit, grease For loose tube cables
317-10600 Crimp sleeve 6/2
For addional equipment for the closure itself, see data sheet. Link to the right

3. Splicing pigtails
Prepare the cable according to one of the drawings in 3.1. If you need longer
bre ends, add 33 cm for an extra loop. If direct terminaon, use 70 cm for all
bres
Tight buered cables
Loose tube cables

Cut pigtails to lengths 70 cm (bres 1-6) and 85 cm (bres 7-12).
Splice one bre at a me, coil and mount them to the splice holder. Fibres
1-6 is mounted according to leer A and the red bre on the drawing, bres
7-12 is coiled half a turn more before mounng to splice holder. All coiling is
made in the same direcon (counter-clockwise) to ensure proper bend radii.
Make connectors point out through the back (underneath the entering cable)
on the last turn and connect them to the adapter front there.
When all bres are spliced, turn the adapter front around to the front and
aach it to the closure (B). Push it in from the front so that the bre clamp
also is pushed in. Insert blind plugs in all unused holes. Raise the p of the
rear bre clamp (C) and mount the lid/back wall.
Detach the lid/back wall using a Torx 10 screwdriver.
Put on the appropriate numbering tab (depends on type of adapter), see
drawing 3.2. Install adapters.
Detach the adapter front and put it aside.

Install bre guides (A), splice holder (B)
and bre clamps (C).
Put the le bre clamp parally under
the low sloping wall.
If cable diameter is below 5 mm, increase the diameter using crimp sleeve(s)
of 7 cm length (placed so it ends up inside the cable gland)
Put the cable through the cable gland, the strain relief unit and the nut, and
mount together. Secure the cable using e-wraps.

Onto DIN rail:
The base units DIN-clip is clipped on boom rst. The box is then pulled up to
clip on to the top part of the rail.
The DIN clip is mounted at the rear on delivery (le picture).
If you want to have the clip on the at side of the box, a wall bracket must be
used (must be bought as accessory, see data sheet DB4177):
This is xed to the box with the same screws/holes as was used for the
DIN-clip. Then the DIN-clip is xed to the bracket with 3 pcs. Of M3 screws.
Note that the spring loaded side of the clip should point downwards. (Closure
facing right; mount clip upside down)
Onto a wall, in front of a wall box or onto a raceway front:
To mount directly to the wall the DIN-clip is replaced by a wall bracket (may
be bought as accessory). This is xed to the box with the same screws/holes
as was used for the DIN-clip. The screws are inserted into the wall with 60 cm
distance and the bracket is hooked on using the key-holes, the slots are 4.5
mm wide. (The easiest may be to use the bracket as a template when making
the holes in the wall).
If the box needs to be secured hard to the wall, the bracket may be xed to
the wall rst and the box mounted on the bracket aerwards (but then the
box may not be placed in a corner).
The bracket is also used if the closure is to be put in front of a wall or raceway
box. (Box has to have its screws c/c 60 mm horizontally.)
In this case, mount the bracket to the wall box rst, then the closure to the
bracket. Cable should be put through the bracket hole, down and into the
closure. (Max cable diameter 7 mm). Assure that cable’s minimum bend
radius is not violated.
The lid may be removed even though the closure is aached to the bracket:
Remove the 4 screws, then slide the closure out, sideways or upwards.
