FAQs
The CGB498 SA is designed for non-armoured tray cables within a 0.875-1.000 inch range and uses a 1-1/4 inch NPT thread. Installers should mount it into standard enclosures with compatible hubs, ensuring the gland threads align and sealing surfaces are clean. Its lightweight aluminum body (0.1 lb) simplifies mounting in space-constrained panels and supports fast commissioning.
This gland adheres to NEC/CEC standards and carries NEMA ratings of 3R and 4X, suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. The aluminum construction provides durability while maintaining manageable weight, enabling reliable operation in typical industrial environments without requiring special protective measures or exotic materials.
Yes. With NEMA 3R 4X ratings, the CGB498 SA is appropriate for indoor and outdoor use in ordinary locations. It supports tray cables that are non-armoured and leverages a standard 1-1/4" NPT connection, making it suitable for general-purpose enclosures in facilities like manufacturing floors and distribution centers.
The gland is NC/CEC compliant and features NEMA ratings 3R and 4X for durable performance in ordinary locations. Documentation and UL certification resources are available via Eaton’s literature, including installation sheets and the dedicated CGB catalog page for non-armoured glands, to help with audits and supplier qualification.
The aluminum body provides corrosion resistance with a lightweight form factor, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. Its non-armoured tray cable compatibility minimizes stock diversity, while standard installation practices (1-1/4" NPT, 0.875-1.000" cable range) shorten downtime during upgrades or retrofits and improve overall equipment uptime.
