Amphenol Industrial Operations has launched a range of explosion-proof and industrial cable glands designed to provide sealing capabilities where cable passes through bulkheads or enters electrical equipment and junction boxes.

The new cable gland product line extends from general duty industrial products through to ATEX approved components meeting the requirements of Zone 1 and 2 rated applications, and including glands to accommodate any cable type - including armour braided.

This comprehensive range of high performance cable glands is offered in brass and stainless steel materials and encompasses a wide choice of sealing and retention options and specifications.

It has been developed to offer sealing solutions for industrial equipment manufacture and installation for all environments, from the benign to the most hazardous areas, and is ideal for equipment going into oil and gas exploration, production platforms, chemical plant and heavy-duty machinery.

The glands have a broad operating temperature range from -40 to +80C and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Many of the products carry SIRA/ATEX certification, CSA approval, NEMA rating and provide sealing capabilities up to IP68 deluge resistant.

Amphenol offers a complete line of accessories including locknuts, earth tags and washers, and for full system compatibility in explosive-proof applications the Ex glands can be used in conjunction with Amphenol's renowned Starline Ex heavy duty cylindrical connectors.
