FAQs
The CGB498 SG uses a 1-1/4" NPT thread, aligning with standard conduit fittings and most general-purpose enclosures. It accommodates non-armoured tray cables and ships with a sealing gasket and locknut to ensure a reliable seal. This makes it suitable for many control panels, motors, and junction enclosures where standard gland entries are required.
This gland supports a cable range of 0.875 to 1.000 inches in diameter, specifically for non-armoured tray cables. It is not intended for armoured cable types. Knowing the cable diameter helps prevent over-tightening and ensures an effective seal without damage to the cable jacket.
Yes. The gland carries a NEMA 3R rating and is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, making it suitable for damp or partially protective environments. When selecting for outdoor exposure, verify enclosure sealing and mounting practices to maintain overall IP/DIN protection levels.
The CGB498 SG aligns with NEC/CEC standards and is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Its 3R rating provides a controlled level of environmental protection. For additional third-party validation, refer to Eaton’s UL-related certifications in the downloadable literature for the specific model page.
The integrated gasket and locknut simplify sealing, reducing commissioning time and rework. Steel construction provides durable protection, while standard 1-1/4" NPT threads enable quick replacements. Together, these features lower labor costs, improve reliability, and support long-term maintenance planning in high-throughput facilities.
