Quick Summary

Eaton Ex-i cable gland provides safe, increased-safety entry for non-armoured cables in hazardous locations. In harsh industrial environments, sealing integrity and regulatory compliance are common challenges that can slow installations and raise risk. This gland supports IECEx/ATEX certification, IP66/IP68 ingress protection, and EU Type Examination documentation, giving project teams confidence in hazardous-area wiring. The combination of a polyamide 6 body and a long-thread M20 entry simplifies mounting and reduces torque requirements. Its non-armoured cable compatibility lowers costs and avoids unnecessary shielding. By delivering robust mechanical sealing and proven regulatory alignment, this gland helps shorten commissioning times while improving long-term reliability in oil, gas, chemical, and process environments.

Certification-driven design ensures compliance in hazardous locations with IECEx/ATEX certification and EU Type Examination documentation. The Ex-i designation confirms increased safety, aligning with mandatory approvals for oil, gas, and chemical processes. In practice, this reduces regulatory review time and helps you meet project timelines more reliably. IP66 and IP68 protection deliver robust ingress sealing against dust, water jets, and immersion scenarios. For outdoor plant fences, washdowns, or offshore platforms, the gland maintains enclosure integrity even after repeated mating cycles. This means less field rework and longer service intervals. Polyamide 6 construction offers good chemical resistance while keeping weight low. This choice lowers overall system load and simplifies handling during installation in tight spaces. It also resists common industrial solvents encountered in processing plants. The M20 long-thread entry provides secure gland-to-cable interface with standard conduit fittings. This simplifies mounting on enclosures and reduces torque, improving consistency across maintenance crews. It also supports a broader range of enclosure bodies used in automation cabinets. Non-armoured cable suitability reduces cost by avoiding unnecessary armour and shielding, while still delivering a rugged seal. The gland type non-armoured matches many field cables and saves on inventory complexity. This translates to faster procurement and lower total cost of ownership. Easy installation is aided by a compact form factor and standardized dimensions, enabling quick retrofits without special tooling. The gland’s design supports consistent sealing across varying cable lengths and enclosure sizes. In short, you gain uptime, faster project delivery, and lower total cost of ownership in hazardous-area automation.

FAQs

This Ex-i gland uses a standard M20 metric thread and is designed for non-armoured cables. Begin by ensuring the enclosure bore matches M20, thread the gland into the entry, and route the non-armoured cable through the gland seal. Tighten to the enclosure’s recommended torque to optimize ingress protection without damaging the seal. Use standard gaskets and clamps where specified to preserve IP66/IP68 performance. Confirm cable length and strain relief requirements prior to commissioning.
IP66 means complete protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, while IP68 indicates protection against immersion beyond 1 meter for specified durations. For this gland, IP66/IP68 ensures reliable sealing in washdowns, rain exposure, and immersion scenarios common in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore environments. This reduces the risk of enclosure contamination and supports longer service intervals.
Yes. The GHG9601955R0123 is designed for hazardous locations and complies with IECEx/ATEX and EU Type Examination requirements. Its polyamide 6 construction provides chemical resistance, while the long-thread M20 entry facilitates robust, maintainable seals in enclosures used in offshore platforms and chemical processing facilities. The non-armoured cable compatibility also suits many field installations typical in these sectors.
The gland carries IECEx/ATEX certification and EU Type Examination documentation, validating compatibility with European and international hazardous-area standards. Certifications support compliance with classification of hazardous locations and enhance project acceptance in regulated industries. Downloadable certification documents from the manufacturer further substantiate conformity for end-user audits.
Benefits include reduced field rework due to robust IP66/IP68 sealing and reliable long-term performance in harsh environments, leading to lower maintenance costs and less downtime. The non-armoured design reduces material costs and simplifies inventory. Overall, faster commissioning, fewer alarms, and longer service intervals contribute to a favorable return on investment for hazardous-area automation projects.
