Hawke cable glands flameproof eexe and eexd

Hawke ICG 653/UNIV Individual Core Compound Cable Gland, Dual Certified Flameproof EExd and Increased Safety EExe

cable glandsThe purpose of this type of cable gland is to form a barrier between the individual insulated conductors within
the cable, and prevent entry into the cable of the products of an explosion within the enclosure.
This cable gland provides an effective inner seal on cables having tape bedding or "soft" sheaths as in some
types of fire-retardant cables. The cable inner sheath seal of a conventional cable gland is replaced with a simple compound filled chamber which permits packing around individual insulated conductors. Assembly of the cable
gland compresses the packing material and distributes the compound evenly to effect a barrier at point of entry
into enclosure. As the compound chamber is transparent, it is possible to check that the chamber has been
effectively filled. Sealing on outer sheath of cable and armour clamping are provided in the conventional manner.
