ACCESSORIES:
Before cable gland assembly or stripping of the cable gland
assembly, consideration should be given to any cable gland
accessories that may be required, such as: -
Shroud, to oer additional corrosion protection.
Locknut, to secure cable glands into position.
Sealing washer, to oer additional ingress protection of the
enclosure at the cable gland entry.
Earthtag, to provide an external armour/braid bonding point.
Serrated washer, to dampen any vibrations that may loosen the
locknut or cable gland assembly.
SCHEDULE OF LIMITATIONS:
1. The cable glands when used with braided cable types are only
suitable for use with xed apparatus, the cable for which must
be eectively clamped and cleated elsewhere.
2. This cable gland has an operating temperature range of -60°C
to +80°C.
3. A seal must be formed between the equipment and the cable
gland to maintain the appropriate degree of protection against
ingress of dust, solid objects and water.

F
Select the correct punch tool to suit the
conductors sizes (see table) and cut out the
required number of holes in the seal  using the
indented positions as a guide. Remove the entry
 and pass the individual conductors through
the appropriately sized punched holes in the seal
 ensuring they are not twisted or kinked, and
slide the seal  down to the spigot  .
Replace entry  and re-assemble middle nut 
onto the entry component  .
Tighten up the middle nut  until hand tight,
then using a wrench/spanner turn the nut
through a minimum of one full turn.
Hand tighten the backnut  to form a seal
around the cable, then tighten a further full turn
using a wrench/spanner. Ensure that the middle
nut  does not rotate when tightening the
backnut  . Ensure that the deluge seal is pulled
down into position, if tted.
Locate the shroud over the cable gland, if
applicable.
E
Unscrew the middle nut  and visually inspect that
the armour/braid has been successfully clamped
between the armour spigot  and the armour
clamping ring  . If armour/braid not clamped, repeat
assembly.
Note : If the equipment has a threaded entry, it may be
advisable to screw the cable gland into the equipment to
prevent twisting of the cable after Step E
D
Hold the entry  in position with a spanner/wrench to
prevent rotation. Hand tighten the middle nut  to the
entry  and turn a further ½ to ¾ of a turn with a
spanner/wrench.
IMPORTANT:Support the cable to prevent it from
twisting.
