SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE• These Cable Glands shall not be used where the temperature at the point of mounting is below -60°C or exceeds 100°C• These Cable Glands are only suitable for fixed installations cables must be effectively clamped to prevent pulling or twisting• The entry thread component may need additional sealing to maintain the IP rating as applicable to the associated equipment to which thecable gland will be attached.

ACCESSORIESThe following accessories are available from CMP Products, as optional extras, to assist with fixing, sealing and earthing :-

Locknut | Earth Tag | SerratedWasher | Entry Thread (I.P.) SealingWasher | Shroud *

CORRECTTOOLSAlways use the correct tools, as incorrect tools will inevitably lead to mistakes, potential damage and/or personal injury. Gloves are recommended whenhandling and terminating cables and cable glands.Dedicated Cable Gland spanners for each cable gland size are available from CMP Products, and these are recommended for installing the productcorrectly. Adjustable spanners and wrenches are not recommended as there is a possibility of slippage that can lead to accidental injury or damage tosurface finish.Any sharp tools, instruments or knives used to cut or strip the cable sheath should be equipped with a safety blade or other safety feature consistent withthe tool design and intended use.Braid snips should be used to remove unwanted or excess cable braid. Ensure that braid snips are in good condition and effectively sharp enough to enablea first time clean cut of the cable braid without snagging.A hacksaw, or other similar tool, should be used to cut armour wires. Hacksaw blades should be checked regularly and replaced when worn, or wheneverevidence that a consistent first time clean cut is no longer possible. Note, when cutting armour wires, care should be taken to avoid cutting into the innercable sheath beneath the armour wires.Please refer to CMP Products in sourcing tools if required, who would be happy to assist.Safety and personal protection should be given priority over all other considerations.

GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDANCE

• BS EN 60079 -10 -2003 Classification of Hazardous Areas• BS EN 60079 -14 -2003 Electrical Installations in Hazardous Areas (other than mines). Please refer to the selection guide in clause 10.4.2 for Ex dapplications.

• Installation should only be carried out by a competent person, skilled in the installation of cable glands

• Care should be taken to avoid damage to entry threads when handling and installing cable glands

• Depending upon the specific form of protection of the main equipment it may be necessary to fit an I.P. sealing washer, at the cable entry interface, tomaintain the appropriate Ingress Protection levels. For Increased Safety (Ex e) equipment, or Increased Safety terminal chambers found on Ex deequipment, a sealing washer is essential to maintain the minimum Ingress Protection rating, and should always be fitted. For other forms of protection,e.g. Flameproof Ex d apparatus, the inclusion of a sealing washer is optional. CMP (I.P.) SealingWashers, which are installed at the cable entry interface,between the equipment enclosure and the cable entry device (cable gland) have been 3rd party tested in Ingress Protection tests to BS EN 60529

• Always ensure that the correct fixing accessories provided by CMP Products are used, as appropriate to secure the cable glands into the matingequipment. In addition to (I.P.) SealingWashers, CMP Products are also able to provide Locknuts, Earth Tags, and SerratedWashers which should be usedas appropriate to the equipment configuration. Usually for any equipment other than Ex d apparatus, it will be necessary to use as a minimum a Locknut,and also a SerratedWasher if the enclosure of the equipment or application requires it.The addition of an Earth Tag will depend upon the earthcontinuity provision of the enclosures installed.

• Cable Gland seals are included within the cable gland when despatched from the factory.There should be no circumstances where seals need to beremoved from the cable gland. Care should be taken to avoid exposure of cable gland seals to dirt, hostile substances, e.g. solvents, and other foreignbodies.

• Cable Gland components are not interchangeable with those of any other cable gland manufacturer. It is important to note that components from onemanufacturer's product cannot be used in that of another, and that modification of a cable gland product will invalidate the hazardous area certification.

• The cable gland is not a user serviceable product and spare parts are not permitted to be supplied under the certification.

• Cable Glands should not be installed whilst circuits are live. Similarly, following energising of the electrical circuits, cable glands should not be dismantledor opened until the circuit has been safely de-energised.

I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the equipment referred to herein conforms to 94/9/EC directive.

Page 9: Cable Gland - Instruction

PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION

1. The PX2K Cable Gland is supplied as a Universal Kit, with two armour cones to suit a variety of cable armour types. One cone is grooved (5a)and the other is stepped (5b) for ease of identification.The grooved armour cone (5a), is suitable for Strip Armour,Tape Armour, and BraidedCables, and the the stepped armour cone (5b) is suitable forWire Armour (SWA) cables.

2. Separate the cable gland into Entry Component ‘A’ and Sub-Assembly ‘B’, noting that items 3, 5 (a or b) and 7 are loose items, as shown in fig. 1.Pass sub-assembly ‘B’ and AnyWay Clamping Ring (7) over the cable, seal nut (9) first.Select the correct cone for the type of cable to be terminated.The illustrations on the following page show a braid armour cable termination.

3. Determine the conductor length required and strip back cable outer sheath and braid or armour to suit the equipment geometry. Expose thecable braid or armour further so that it can be formed around the armour cone (5a or 5b), by stripping the outer sheath to Length ‘L’.This lengthmay vary slightly depending upon diameter of the cable. See fig 2 and table opposite for guidance.

4. Insert the armour cone (5 a or b) into the entry component ‘A’ (2) and pass the cable through these items until the braid or armour is formedaround the cone – see fig. 3. (Note :This operation can be done either remotely from the equipment, or with the entry component ‘A’ (2)secured into the equipment enclosure – see also steps 9a & 9b below).Tighten the body (6) to the entry component ‘A’ (2) locking the armour.Unscrew the body (6) from the entry component and withdraw the cable.

5. Remove any bedding, fillers or tapes from around the conductors at point ‘R’, in readiness for application of epoxy resin barrier compound,avoiding damage to the conductor insulation. It is important that the compound is correctly mixed and applied as this will form the flameproofor (explosion proof) seal.Thoroughly mix the two part compound in equal proportions to a uniform colour and a soft pliable consistency. Plasticgloves are provided for personal protection whilst handling the compound.

6. For DrainWire terminations see further instructions opposite, or otherwise if no drain wires present continue with step 7 below.7. Separate the conductors and pack compound into the crutch of the cable, between and around the conductors. Bring the conductors back

together, and apply the compound further around the cable conductors to a diameter sufficient to fill the armour cone and compound tube.Thecompound should be applied around and between the conductors to a length not exceeding that of the compound tube (3), ending in a taper(minimum length of filled compound 20mm) (fig 4).

8. Pass the compound tube (3) over the conductors and compound, and push it firmly until it is fully located with the armour cone (5 a or b). Packthe compound into the end of the compound tube (3) ensuring that it is filled completely. Remove any excess compound from all externalsurfaces to ensure that the components can be assembled without obstruction, and that the flameproof paths are not impaired.

9a. Direct make-off into Equipmenti) Secure Entry Component ‘A’ (2) into the equipment.ii) Slacken the outer seal nut (9) to ensure that the seal is relaxed.iii) Carefully pass the cable assembly through the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) ensuring that the compound is not disturbed.iv) With the compound tube located in the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) tighten body item (6) into Entry component ‘A’ (2).v) Using a standard spanner, tighten the Outer Seal Nut (9) onto the body (6) until it comes to an effective stop.This will occur when i. The

Outer Seal Nut (9) is metal to metal with the body (6) of the cable gland, or ii. The Outer Seal has clearly engaged the cable and cannotbe further tightened without the use of excessive force by the installer.

vi) The cable gland must be left to cure undisturbed, until the compound has hardened before the cable conductors are terminated.9b. Remote make-off

i) With the outer seal nut (9) slackened, to ensure that the seal is relaxed, carefully pass the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) over the cableassembly ensuring that the compound is not disturbed.

ii) With the compound tube (3) located in the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) carefully tighten the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) and body item (6)together to complete the cable gland assembly in true alignment.

iii) The cable gland must be left to cure undisturbed, until the compound has hardened.iv) After the compound has cured, dismantle the assembly by reversing step ii. above, remove the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) and secure this

into the equipment.v) Ensure that the outer seal nut (9) is relaxed.vi) Carefully pass the cable assembly through the Entry Component ‘A’ (2).vii) With the compound tube located in the Entry Component ‘A’ (2) tighten body item (6) onto Entry Component ‘A’ (2).viii) Using a standard spanner, tighten the Outer Seal Nut (9) onto the body (6) until it comes to an effective stop.This will occur when i. The

Outer Seal Nut (9) is metal to metal with the body (6) of the cable gland, or ii. The Outer Seal has clearly engaged the cable and cannotbe further tightened without the use of excessive force by the installer.

This completes the termination.

The following instructions should be followed when terminating barrier type cableglands onto cables containing DrainWire/s.

A) When Using DrainWire/s with heat/cold shrink tubing

i) Proceed with steps 1 to 6 of the installation instructions opposite, with thefollowing additional steps.

ii) Apply the compound into the crutch of the cable for a distance ofapproximately 6mm.

iii) Push a 100mm minimum length of heat shrink sleeve over the DrainWire/sto butt against the epoxy putty compound.

iv) Apply heat to gently shrink the sleeve evenly around the wire to extrudeall air.

v) Continue with step 7 of the installation instructions opposite.

B) When insulating DrainWire/s or Screens with separateinsulated connection

i) Proceed with steps 1 to 6 of the installation instructions opposite, with thefollowing additional steps.

ii) When cable is provided with screen wires remove a further 15mm of outersheathing to expose the screens.

iii) Unravel the screen wires and twist together to form one single conductor. Itmay be necessary to cut out and remove some of the screen wires prior to

the next step.

iv) Crimp or solder an insulated conductor to the screen conductor by the useof an insulated butt ferrule.The length of the insulated conductor will bedetermined by the distance to the point of the earth connection within theequipment.

v) IMPORTANT, there must be a minimum of 10mm of the epoxy resincompound applied both before and after the crimped connection.
