Eaton Specification Sheet - TMCX250 1
Explosion-proof design meets NEC/CEC for Hazardous/Classified Locations and Class I, II, III environments, delivering a safer worksite and regulatory compliance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: This protection reduces the need for costly rework and minimizes risk of equipment damage, enabling reliable operation in oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities. Application: hazardous area installations where uptime and safety are non-negotiable. Armoured barrier and TECK armoured options provide enhanced rugged protection for exposed cables, reducing abrasion and ingress. Business Impact: lower maintenance costs and fewer field repairs, translating to longer service intervals in mining and heavy industry. Application: control panels and junctions in demanding plants requiring durable sealing. Cable sealing range of 1 (S) and cable range 1.81-2.72 inches ensures precise fit and optimal seal integrity. Business Impact: improved sealing performance lowers ingress risk and extends cable life. Application: large-diameter armoured cables and tray systems in process automation. Aluminum construction keeps weight manageable, simplifying handling and installation without sacrificing corrosion resistance. Business Impact: faster on-site assembly and lower labor costs. Application: modular gland installations on conveyors and remotely mounted enclosures. 2-1/2 inch NPT thread size and standard interfaces enable quick compatibility with common conduit systems. Business Impact: reduced part proliferation and faster commissioning. Application: retrofit projects and new builds in industrial facilities.

FAQs
Plan for a 2-1/2 in NPT threaded entry and ensure the enclosure maintains NEMA 4X integrity. Use the armoured TECK or metal-clad options where cable sheathes experience abrasion. Verify cable range (1.81–2.72 in) for optimal sealing and minimize accessory fittings to reduce leak paths.
It is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations under NEC/CEC and carries a NEMA 4X protection rating. The gland’s armoured construction and rated sealing system prevent ingress of chemicals, dust, and moisture, supporting safe operation in demanding environments.
Yes. The gland is designed to accommodate armoured barrier and tray cables, including TECK armoured variants, with a 2-1/2 in NPT thread to match standard gland ports. This compatibility reduces the need for adapters and simplifies retrofits in existing plants.
Cable sealing range is 1 (S) with an operational sealing range of 1.81–2.72 inches. This precise fit ensures reliable environmental sealing and minimizes ingress paths, which is crucial for maintaining equipment integrity in hazardous zones.
Expect reduced maintenance and faster commissioning due to standardized fittings and robust sealing. The gland’s certifications and corrosion-resistant aluminum construction lower lifecycle costs by minimizing rework, while extended service life in harsh environments improves overall uptime and equipment availability.
