Mining.
For use with non-armoured elastomer and plastic insulated cables.
For particular use with :-
a) Cables that are not effectively filled, compact and/or circular, have tape bedding or have hygroscopic fillers.
b) Cables that exhibit ‘cold flow’ characteristics.
c) Enclosures containing an ignition source.
Provides a barrier seal between the individual insulated cores within the cable and prevents entry of the products of an explosion into the cable.
Assembly of the cable gland compresses and distributes the compound evenly to effect a barrier seal at the point of entry into the enclosure.
The compound chamber may be separated from the cured compound to ensure that the chamber has been effectively filled. If required, external voids can be repaired.
Provides a cable retention seal onto the cables outer sheath.
The 623 cable gland is manufactured in Brass (standard), Nickel Plated Brass or 316 Stainless Steel.
Brass NPT entries are nickel plated as standard.
