Eaton Specification Sheet - CGE297 SG
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The CGE297 SG uses a 90° angled gland fitting that simplifies routing in crowded control panels, reducing installation time and space requirements in conveyor and process equipment applications. This translates to lower labor costs and faster commissioning in manufacturing lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Sealing gasket and locknut combination provides robust ingress protection, decreasing dust and moisture ingress and prolonging enclosure integrity, which reduces maintenance cycles in washdown zones and indoor switchgear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Cable range of 0.750-0.875 inches and non-armoured design ensure straightforward compatibility with tray cables, minimizing adapter parts and inventory while improving field fit for machine builders. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Feraloy iron alloy body offers mechanical strength and corrosion resistance in normal environments, extending service life in industrial settings with exposure to humidity and incidental contaminants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC compliance with a NEMA 4 rating delivers regulatory peace of mind and safer installations in ordinary locations, enabling faster approvals and fewer retrofit costs in facility upgrades. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 3/4" NPT threaded glands provide reliable sealing with standard conduit hardware, supporting modular OEM designs and easier maintenance across multi-panel systems in packaging and material handling.

FAQs
Begin by selecting the correct 0.750–0.875 in cable range and ensure the 3/4 in NPT thread matches your panel. Route the tray cable through the gland, seating the Sealing gasket, then secure with the locknut and tighten to the recommended torque. The 90° angled connector helps in tight spaces, reducing panel disruption during installation.
The CGE297 SG is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations with a NEMA 4 enclosure protection level, making it ideal for damp or dusty indoor environments. It is not intended for hazardous locations without additional enclosure protection. Always verify site conditions align with NEC/CEC and local codes.
Key specs include a non-armoured gland for tray cables, a 0.750–0.875 inch cable range, a 3/4 inch NPT thread, and a 90° angle connector. The body is made from Feraloy iron alloy and includes a sealing gasket and locknut for reliable ingress protection and ease of maintenance.
The CGE297 SG aligns with NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA Rating of 4 for enclosure protection. It is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, which supports safe operation in standard industrial facilities and aligns with common control panel requirements.
Its sealing gasket and locknut minimize ingress and leaks, reducing repair downtime and extending enclosure life. The 90° orientation saves space and speeds installation in dense panels, lowering labor costs and improving mean time between maintenance (MTBM) in tray cable installations.
