Eaton Crouse-Hinds CGE197 Cable Gland - NEMA 4
Part Number: CGE197
Quick Summary
CGE197 cable gland is a general-purpose sealing fitting designed for non-armoured tray cables in industrial enclosures. Engineers often struggle with sealing reliability at 90° connections and fitting tight, leak-free glands in compact panels. This CGE197 supports NEC/CEC compliance and a NEMA 4 enclosure rating, reinforcing safe operation in ordinary locations. With its 1/2" NPT thread and 0.750-0.875" cable range, it delivers predictable performance while reducing field rework. The gland is suited for tray cable applications and non-armoured setups, aligning with broader tray cable gland families to streamline procurement and maintenance across plant sites. Use this option to improve installation efficiency and long-term reliability in general purpose electrical installations.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The CGE197 uses a 1/2" NPT thread and a 0.750-0.875" cable range, delivering a secure,-tidy seal that reduces ingress risk and simplifies enclosure wiring. This translates to faster installation, fewer re-works, and lower maintenance costs in panel builds and field retrofits. Application: ideal for non-armoured tray cables entering enclosures in general purpose environments where space is constrained and reliability is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A 90° angle gland design minimizes mounting footprint, enabling tighter panel layouts and better cable management. This supports compact switchgear installations and ships in tight electrical rooms while maintaining compliance with NEC/CEC and NEMA 4 standards. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Feraloy iron alloy construction provides robust resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear in ordinary locations, delivering longer service life with fewer gland replacements. Application: common in standard facility wiring where non-hazardous environments predominate. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The CGE197 aligns with the Crouse-Hinds non-armoured gland family catalog pages, enabling seamless cross-referencing for procurement teams and field technicians. Application: supports streamlined sourcing and consistent component strategies across projects.

FAQs
To install CGE197, ensure the enclosure is located in an ordinary/non-hazardous area per NEC/CEC guidance and prepare the non-armoured tray cable to the required length. Thread the gland into a standard 1/2 inch NPT opening, insert the cable within the 0.750-0.875 inch range, and tighten to the manufacturer’s torque specification. Use appropriate seals and tighten hardware to maintain NEMA 4 protection. For installation guidance, refer to IF 513A CG fittings instructions and the Crouse-Hinds installation literature.
CGE197 is designed specifically for non-armoured tray cables with a 0.750-0.875 inch range and a 1/2 inch NPT gland. Its 90° elbow minimizes panel depth requirements, while the Feraloy iron alloy body provides durable performance in ordinary locations. It is listed under NEC/CEC standards and offers NEMA 4 enclosure protection, making it a reliable choice for general purpose electrical installations.
Yes. The CGE197 is specified for NEC/CEC compliance and carries a NEMA 4 rating for enclosure protection. It is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, aligning with standard industrial wiring practices. This ensures a robust seal against dust and water ingress in typical plant environments, reducing the risk of equipment downtime due to enclosure contamination.
CGE197 has a length of 2.8 inches, with a height and width of 1.63 inches each. The product weight is 0.71 pounds. These compact dimensions enable easy integration into tight electrical panels and control cabinets while preserving space for wiring and connectors in tray cable applications.
