For trouble-free operation, it is important to install the glands and cable
correctly. Eltorque’s IP certification may be voided if the instructions of the
glands are not followed.
Note! Support the cable to prevent it from twisting
1. Ensure that the correct cable and gland are at hand.
2. Be sure to allow sufficient length striped cable.
3. Pass the cable through the cable gland and ensure that the cable is
correctly positioned in the gland. Eltorque recommends having a 5mm
cable edge over the end of the gland.
4. Hold the body of the gland in position with a spanner (24mm / 0.94 in.)
or wrench to prevent rotation and tighten the back-nut to min 5Nm,
maximum 15Nm.
5. Finalize the gland installation with a visual verification to ensure correct
positioning of all parts.
6. For other glands follow the instructions from the supplier.
