• Securing cables in electrical junction boxes
• Protecting wiring entries in industrial control panels
• Maintaining enclosure integrity in commercial electrical installations
• Strain relief for cables in fixed equipment

When it may not be suitable

This cable gland is not intended for use in high-pressure underwater environments or areas exposed to extreme chemical solvents that may degrade the material. It is also not suitable for applications requiring specialized explosion-proof certifications.

Key specifications

• Thread size: PG 48
• Material: Polyamide
• Protection rating: IP68
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to +80°C
• Color: Light grey

How to use

To install the Ergom DP 48/H, insert the cable through the gland body before tightening the nut into the threaded opening of the enclosure. Once the gland is securely fastened to the housing, tighten the dome nut to compress the internal seal around the cable jacket. Ensure that the cable is properly centered and that the nut is tightened sufficiently to achieve the required seal without over-tightening, which could damage the threads or the cable insulation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the outer diameter of your cable matches the clamping range of the gland
• Ensure the thread type of your enclosure matches the PG 48 standard
• Check the environmental conditions of the installation site

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the specified protection rating, ensure that the sealing nut is tightened evenly and that the cable surface is clean and free of debris before installation.
