Quick Summary

Ex-e cable gland from Eaton enables safe, reliable conduit sealing for hazardous location electrical installations. In the field, unarmoured glands can fail under IP66/IP68 and ATEX conditions, causing downtime and costly maintenance. With IECEx/ATEX certification for hazardous locations and IP66/IP68 protection, this gland supports compliance and asset integrity across global sites. Designed specifically for non-armoured cables with an M12 short-thread, it simplifies installation while minimizing inventory needs. The durable polyamide 6 body delivers ongoing resistance to harsh environments, and the short-thread design reduces assembly time. This solution also aligns with modern procurement strategies, helping you standardize gland selection, improve traceability, and lower total cost of ownership.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Ex-e gland uses a polyamide 6 body engineered for non-armoured cables, delivering robust chemical and mechanical resistance that lowers maintenance needs and extends service life in harsh environments. This translates to fewer field failures and a lower total cost of ownership across multiple sites that operate in hazardous locations and require reliable Ex-e protection. Application: Control panels, junction boxes, and field connections in chemical plants or offshore facilities where rapid, dependable installation is essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Short-thread M12 compatibility and a non-armoured gland design streamline installation, reducing commissioning time and labor costs. This supports faster project turnover and easier stocking for multinational sites with standardized gland kits. Application: Retrofit or new installations where compact fit and quick sealing are critical, especially in space-constrained enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP66/IP68 protection and IECEx/ATEX certification provide built-in safety and regulatory compliance, lowering risk of non-compliance penalties and unplanned downtime. Application: Equipment located in dusty, wet, or explosive atmospheres where hazardous-location compliance and ingress protection are non-negotiable. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-armoured and M12 thread compatibility reduces the risk of incorrect gland selection and simplifies spare-part management, yielding improved supply-chain efficiency. Application: Global installations requiring standardized components to minimize VARs and ensure consistent performance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Material efficiency with Polyamide 6 offers good thermal stability and chemical resistance, enhancing long-term performance and reducing replacement frequency. Application: Harsh manufacturing environments where cable glands face oils, coolants, and varying temperatures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact dimensions (27.3 mm length, 15 mm width/height) enable installation in tight housings without compromising sealing performance. Application: Small enclosures and panel cutouts where space is at a premium, improving overall system density and reliability.

FAQs

To install, insert the non-armoured cable through the gland, align the gland with the enclosure knockout, and tighten to the manufacturer’s torque specification for the M12 short-thread. Ensure the seal is seated firmly, verify the IP66/IP68 integrity after assembly, and apply any required strain relief. This minimizes ingress risk and speeds commissioning in hazardous locations.
It carries IECEx/ATEX certifications for hazardous locations and provides IP66/IP68 ingress protection. The polyamide 6 body is designed for resistance to chemicals and mechanical stress, while the short-thread M12 design simplifies installation in restricted spaces, delivering proven safety and reliable sealing in explosive atmospheres.
Yes. The GHG9601955R0001 is rated IP66/IP68 and is certified for hazardous locations under IECEx/ATEX. It is designed for non-armoured cables with M12 threads, making it suitable for enclosures exposed to dust, water jets, and immersion in controlled conditions common in Ex-e applications.
This gland aligns with IECEx/ATEX standards for hazardous locations and provides IP66/IP68 protection. It also carries area classification compatibility for Hazardous/Classified Locations, ensuring compliance during global deployments and across multiple regulatory regimes.
Benefits include reduced downtime due to reliable sealing, faster installation, and standardized components across sites. The durable polyamide 6 material and compact dimensions contribute to longer service intervals and lower inventory costs, delivering measurable ROI through improved uptime and simplified procurement.
