Characteristics of an ATEX/Ex Cable Gland
- An ATEX/Ex metallic (nickel-plated brass) is a piece that allows compression sealing.
- It uses mechanical components and an axial force to compress an internal elastomer gasket inside a casing.
- Cable glands are designed to connect wires in fire-proof or safer equipment in hazardous areas. They provide a watertight water and gas-tight connection between the cable and the equipment, thus preventing the cable from being pulled out or twisted, ensuring a ground connection to the wire frame.
- Designed to work in hazardous areas (Group II)
- Fixes the cable to its element
- Prevents liquid or dust from entering the element
- Insulator
- Unlike a simple rubber gasket, a cable gland provides sealing/tightness
