Globally Approved, Explosive Atmosphere Cable Gland
• Effectively earths / grounds lead sheathed cables
• Fully sequential, three step installation procedure
• Direct & remote installation
• Unique compensating displacement seal system (CDS)
– Metal-to-metal installation every time regardless of lead sheath diameter
• Designed to prevent Coldflow, see CMP Technical Document TS002 (available upon request)
• Integral protected deluge seal
• Controlled outer ‘load retention’ seal
• Unique OSTG prevents overtightening
• -60°C to +130°C
• Globally marked, IECEx, ATEX, UL & cCSAus
• Superior EMC Performance
† Grooved Cone (X) is predominantly used for Wire Braid (e.g. GSWB, TCWB), Steel Tape Armour (STA, DSTA) and Aluminium Strip Armour (ASA) but is also suitable for Single Wire Armour (SWA), Aluminium Wire Armour (AWA) and Pliable Wire Armour (PWA) if the range is outside that of the Stepped Cone (W).
Note: Grooved Cone (X) dimensions shown in the Cable Gland Selection Table below are for a double wire strand of braid armour cables. Tapes can also be doubled over. For cables that have only a single layer of armour such as SWA the clamping range should be used as shown in the table below. Stepped (W) Cone is suitable for Single Wire Armour (SWA), or Aluminium Wire Armour (AWA) cables.

ATEX Responsibilities
When placing cable glands or similar equipment on the market, manufacturers should provide a Declaration of Conformity confirming that its products are identical to the samples originally type tested by the Ex Notified body, and that they meet the Essential Health & Safety Requirements of the Directive 2014/34/EU.
Read moreThe Galvanic Series
A set of values has been given to a series of metals and alloys in terms of their relative nobility, or ability to resist corrosion, whilst immersed in sea water. In other situations, where materials are not immersed, but are exposed to atmospheric contaminants, their status will be largely dependent upon the environment in which they are located.
Read moreLead Covered / Lead Sheathed Cables
In addition to the standard requirements for SWA cables, there is a set of special guidelines for lead covered cables intended for direct burial in the ground of hydrocarbons processing and refinery sites. These guidelines were introduced in the UK by the Oil Companies Material Association (OCMA) and responsibility for these were subsequently transferred to EEMUA, the Engineering Equipment and Material Users Association.
