IF 1890 - TMC3 Cable Gland
Armor and cable range compatibility enables a single gland to accommodate MC, MC-HL, TECK, TC, TC-ER, TC-ER-HL, ITC, ITC-ER, ITC-HL, PLTC, PLTC-ER, and ACIC cables, reducing SKU count and accelerating procurement. Business impact: streamlined sourcing and faster installations on complex projects. Application: control panels and field enclosures in mining, chemical, and oil & gas settings where diverse cable types converge. Aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and a lighter footprint, contributing to easier handling during installation and long-term durability. Business impact: lower maintenance costs and improved reliability in aggressive environments; Application: aircraft, process, and heavy industry cabinets that require robust ingress protection. IP66, NEMA 4X protection, along with IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC certifications, ensures readiness for hazardous locations and washdown zones. Business impact: ensures regulatory compliance, reduces rework, and supports global product approvals; Application: plants with regulatory demands across multiple regions. 1-1/2" NPT threaded mounting simplifies integration with standard enclosures and input hubs, enabling quick retrofits or new builds. Business impact: reduced installation time and fewer field modifications; Application: panel assemblies in automation racks and MCCs. By supporting armored and non-armored glands with defined armor, cable, and outer sheath ranges (1.280"–1.610"; 1.380"–1.780" respectively), it provides precise sealing for a wide array of cable constructions. This mitigates common sealing failures and overtime maintenance, delivering predictable performance across global sites; Application: multi-site projects requiring consistent gland performance. The TMC3-150-1 is supported by installation sheets and catalogs that streamline project planning and training for technicians, further reducing commissioning risk.

FAQs
The gland supports both armored and non-armored cables, suitable for MC, MC-HL, TECK, TC, TC-ER, TC-ER-HL, ITC, ITC-ER, ITC-HL, PLTC, PLTC-ER, and ACIC types. Armor range is 1.280"–1.610", cable range 1.380"–1.780", with an outer sheath range of 1.380"–1.780". Mounts via 1-1/2" NPT thread in aluminum bodies for reliable sealing in industrial enclosures.
It is certified IECEx/ATEX and NEC/CEC compliant, provides IP66 protection and a NEMA 4X rating, and is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations. These certifications support safe operation in chemical plants, refineries, mining, and other environments where dust, water, and explosive atmospheres are considerations.
Yes. The TMC3-150-1 is designed for both armor types, with defined armor and cable ranges ensuring a secure seal across configurations. Choosing the correct armor range guarantees proper compression and strain relief, minimizing leakage risks in harsh environments.
Use the 1-1/2" NPT thread to mount the gland into standard hubs, ensure the armor/cable ranges match the conductors, and follow the provided IF 1890 installation sheet. Aluminum construction aids torque performance and long-term durability, while proper torque and alignment prevent leaks in washdown and dusty environments.
The gland delivers improved uptime in hazardous locations through reliable sealing and regulatory compliance, reduces spare part variety by supporting multiple cable types, and simplifies global procurement with a single, versatile component. These benefits translate to lower maintenance costs and faster project commissioning across facilities.
