Feature → Business Impact → Application: Explosion-proof design provides reliable protection against ignition sources in hazardous locations, reducing risk of equipment compromise and noncompliance costs. This translates to safer startups and lower insurance considerations for facilities handling flammable materials. Application: ideal for Class I, Division 1 environments with armoured barrier and TECK armoured cable types. Feature: Armoured gland with liquid compound barrier ensures a secure seal against dust and moisture. Benefit: extends enclosure life and minimizes corrective maintenance in outdoor or washdown areas. Application: offshore, petrochemical, and chemical processing plants using metal-clad or tray cables. Feature: 4" NPT thread and 3.11–4.28" cable range compatibility. Benefit: simplifies installation and retrofit projects by matching standard fittings and existing cable inventories. Application: retrofit of legacy enclosures or new builds requiring rapid, compliant terminations. Feature: Aluminium construction keeps weight manageable while delivering rugged durability. Benefit: easier handling during installation, reduced structural support requirements, and long-term corrosion resistance. Application: industrial plants with frequent maintenance turnover. This data-driven approach reflects industry best practices and supports measurable gains in reliability, compliance, and lifecycle cost efficiency.

FAQs
Plan for a 4 inch NPT mounting interface and ensure enclosure entries are rated for Class I Division 1 environments. Use the liquid compound barrier and armoured gland features to achieve a compliant seal against dust, moisture, and ignition sources. Verify fit with TECK armoured, metal-clad, or barrier tray cables and follow Eaton installation sheets IF1647 for best results.
The TMCX400 2 L is designed for armoured cable types including TECK and metal-clad with interlocked or welded armour. Its armour-compatible gland type and sealing range enable reliable terminations across a variety of barrier and tray cable configurations, reducing the need for multiple gland variants and simplifying spares inventory.
It meets NEC/CEC standards with NEC hazardous ratings Class I, Division 1, Class II, Division 1, and Class III, and carries a NEMA 4X rating, suitable for hazardous locations and washdown environments. Canadian certifications are available via UL listings referenced in the documentation, ensuring compliance for hazardous area installations.
Product dimensions are 8.52 in length, 6.73 in height and width, and it weighs 19.9 lb. These values help with enclosure planning, mount spacing, and cable routing considerations, ensuring adequate access for inspection and maintenance without impacting surrounding equipment.
The explosion-proof, armoured design reduces ingress risk and downstream failures, lowering maintenance frequency and unplanned downtime. Long-term ROI comes from fewer component changes, consistent compliance across hazardous zones, and reduced total cost of ownership in lifecycle-managed plants.
