Eaton Specification Sheet - TMCX250 2 NP
Explosion-proof design protects energized cables in hazardous zones, reducing ignition risk and helping you meet NEC/CEC requirements. This Terminator II gland enables safe terminations for metal-clad and TECK-armoured cables in oil, gas, and chemical processing facilities, lowering risk and facilitating compliance audits. The 2-1/2" NPT thread standardizes mounting with common conduits, enabling faster installations and fewer field modifications. With a 2.24–3.28" cable sealing range, it accommodates a wide range of cable diameters, reducing the need to stock multiple gland sizes and improving installation efficiency. Its nickel-plated brass body delivers corrosion resistance in chemical and coastal environments, extending service life and minimizing replacement costs. Compatibility with interlocked or welded corrugated armour, TECK armoured, armoured barrier, and tray cables simplifies field retrofits and new builds alike. Area-classified, explosion-protected design aligns with NEC/CEC, NEMA 4X, and UL standards, helping facilities achieve regulatory compliance while lowering lifecycle costs through durable sealing and fewer maintenance intervals.

FAQs
The TMCX250 2 NP is designed for metal-clad cables with interlocked or welded corrugated armour, including TECK armoured and tray cables. It uses a 2-1/2" NPT gland with a 2 (M) sealing range, enabling reliable termination across a range of diameters (2.24–3.28 inches). This makes field retrofits and new installations easier while maintaining armour integrity and seal performance.
The gland is intended for hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance and NEC Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, and Class III ratings. It carries NEMA 4X protection and UL certification support for use in hazardous environments, ensuring regulatory alignment for oil, gas, and chemical facilities.
A 2-1/2 inch NPT thread matches common conduit and gland mounting standards, enabling straightforward integration with existing enclosures and conduits. This reduces installation time, minimizes torque issues, and supports consistent sealing performance with the specified cable range and armour configurations.
Yes. The explosion-proof design, armour compatibility (metal-clad, TECK armoured, barrier/tray cables), and NEC/CEC hazardous-location ratings make it appropriate for oil & gas, chemical processing, and other demanding industrial applications where ingress protection and reliability are critical.
Choosing the TMCX250 2 NP delivers improved safety and compliance, longer service life due to corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass, and reduced maintenance downtime thanks to robust sealing (2 (M) range) and easy installation with common 2-1/2" NPT connections. This translates to lower total cost of ownership in harsh industrial environments.
