4) Mounting procedure for flameproof cable gland
The procedure for mounting the flameproof cable gland is shown below.
Step Procedure
1
Securely screw the main unit of the adapter into the
conduit connection port of the terminal box or into the
flameproof universal elbow, and fasten the hexagon
socket bolt.
Handling Precautions:
Apply adequate waterproofing to these parts. We
recommend the use of silicone resin based non-
hardening seal materials.
2
Refer to the illustrations and insert the cable carefully.
Warning
If the diameters of the cable and the packing do
not match each other, the propagation of flame
cannot be prevented. Refer to the table below
and select a packing adaptor whose internal
diameter matches the outer diameter of the cable.
