FAQs

Begin by preparing the panel cut-out for a standard M32 gland, ensuring the cable entry seals are clean and undamaged. Slide the gland body into place, insert the non-armoured cable, and tighten to the manufacturer’s torque spec to maintain IP66/IP68 integrity. Verify the enclosure is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations and conduct a post-installation ingress protection check. This process minimizes leakage paths and preserves IECEx/ATEX compliance during equipment commissioning.
Key specs include IP66/IP68 protection, Increased Safety (Ex-e), non-armoured cable type, and a short-thread M32 metric connection. The gland uses polyamide 6 material, with dimensions of 45.5 mm length, 36 mm width and height, and a weight of 0.03 kg. It is designed for Hazardous/Classified Locations and supports IECEx/ATEX certification requirements for safe operation in demanding environments.
Yes, the GHG9601955R0005 is designed for IECEx/ATEX environments and Hazardous/Classified Locations. It protects non-armoured cables, offering a secure, compliant interface between cables and enclosures in explosive atmospheres. The combination of IP66/IP68 sealing and increased safety ensures reliable operation in oil and gas, chemical, and other harsh industrial settings where non-armoured cables are present.
The gland carries IECEx/ATEX certifications for Ex-e increased safety and supports IP66/IP68 ingress protection. It is approved for Hazardous/Classified Locations, aligning with international regulations for electrical equipment in explosive atmospheres. This broad compliance reduces risk during audits, accelerates procurement, and simplifies multi-region project approvals for global deployments.
The gland’s polyamide 6 body offers chemical resistance and stable seals, reducing ingress-related maintenance. Its lightweight, compact design simplifies replacement and upgrades, while the M32 short-thread mount speeds installation, minimizing labor costs. The IECEx/ATEX compliance and IP66/IP68 protection help prevent costly outages in hazardous environments, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
