The procedure for mounting the flameproof cable gland is shown below.
Step Procedure

Firmly tighten the entry body on the connection port and the universal elbow to hold it
in place.

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 propa-
gation 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.
