| Description: | Looking to purchase the best NPT cable gland ? Cable glands perform a number of essential roles in cable management. Designed to attach and secure the end of an electric cable and the device it's connected to, cable glands provide earthing, grounding, insulation, bonding and strain relief. They can also be used to seal cables which pass through bulkheads of gland plates.
Electrical supplies, such as switch cabinets, generators or transistors, pose a high potential for danger, especially in industrial areas endangered by explosion. Since 2016, they must meet the explosion directive 2014/34/EU as an overall system. For instance, in the oil and gas industry, shipbuilding, machine or plant construction, explosive atmospheres often prevail which can be ignited by devices short circuiting or generating heat. In the interests of prevention, the certified ATEX cable entries and designs from cableglandsonline.com reliably shield all device housings and thus guarantee a major contribution to the safety of electrical supplies.
Common applications for cable glands include aerospace, cleanroom, fire protection, industrial, marine, panel or enclosure, power or utility, railway, and telecommunications. Industrial glands: Used in industrial environments such as factories, process plants, mills, etc. See more details on IP68 cable gland.
Selecting Cable Glands - Items to consider when selecting a cable gland for a particular installation include: Size of cable being terminated, Size of cable entry on piece of equipment, Thread form on the piece of equipment. The most common thread forms in use are imperial threads (NPT), metric threads, and PG threads.
The CMP E1FX/M cable gland is suitable for use with all forms of equipment protection permitted in Zone 1 provided always that the prevailing code of practice, installation and maintenance is observed ie. IEC60079-14. Locate the cable gland Armour Cone ensuring the correct side of the cone is outermost - grooved for braid/tape armour and stepped for SWA cables. Pass the cable through the cable gland until the wire armour is engaged with the cone. Spread the wire armour evenly around the cone. |
