Cable entry system and cable glands

Cable glands for Ex applications offer you particularly high-level safety in potentially explosive areas. For reliable operation, versions for armored and unarmored cables are available in the types of protection flameproof enclosure (type “d”), increased safety (type “e”), and restrictive breathing enclosure (type “nR”). The cable glands are approved in accordance with international standards (ATEX, IECEx, UL, GHOST) and provide IP66/IP67 and IP68 degree of protection.

• Brass, for armored cables for safety type “e”, for non-armored cables for safety types “d”, “e”, and “nR”
• Stainless steel, for armored cables and non-armored cables for safety types “d”, “e”, and “nR”
• With environmentally friendly seals made from thermoplastic elastomer (LSF)
• Screw plugs and pressure compensation for all versions

For shielded cables, reliable EMC cable glands made of brass are available with elastic shield contact springs for easy assembly. Furthermore, highly conductive laminated elements offer reliable connection with very low ohmic and inductive resistance between the cable shield and the connector housing or the control cabinet panel.

• EMC cable glands made from brass (nickel-plated), with integrated strain relief offering IP68 degree of protection, with metric or Pg thread

The cable glands are available with metric threads in the sizes from M12 to M63. Pg and self-sealing NPT threads are also available.

Cable glands with slotted or two-piece seal allow the easy and tight insertion of preassembled cables.

With IP68 degree of protection (in part IP69K), chloroprene seals and NBR O-rings ensure an optimum seal on the housing.

The CES sealing frames can be mounted directly on standard panel cutouts for industrial connectors. Snap-on frames simplify on-site installation.

Choose between sealing frames which can be split with screw locking or locking latch. The locking latch does not require any tools, which makes it really quick and easy to mount, even in places that are difficult to access.

Using the slotted sleeves, you can install and mount preassembled cables easily – even later on. In addition, cone sleeves that can be cut to size flexibly are available. They seal a wide range of cable diameters up to IP65 degree of protection.

The gray thermoplastic sleeves exhibit a low level of flammability according to UL 94 V0 and are resistant to acids and lyes. The NBR black rubber sleeves are resistant to fuels, oil, and grease and keep their elasticity even at low temperatures.

By widening the standard Rittal cutouts from 35 mm to 51 mm, even the rectangular HEAVYCON industrial connectors can be routed through mounting panels and sealed.

The double membrane seal protects your installation up to IP66/IP67. The metal-reinforced plates also provide a reliable seal in outdoor applications.

CES Multigates offer space-saving feed-through for up to 37 cables using a single plate. The openings are methodically arranged and ensure orderly cable entry.

CES Multigates enable a high degree of flexibility as they can be used in various ways for cable sizes that are 5 to 60 mm in diameter, thereby covering a wide range of applications.

When used in combination with a module plate, CES Multigates can be mounted not only in the control cabinet panel, but on the control cabinet base as well.

The plates are flame-retardant (flammability rating V0, UL 94), oil-resistant (black material), and can be used at temperatures from -40 to +100°C.
