Ergom MDW 16H Brass Cable Gland PG16 IP68

The Ergom MDW 16H is a professional-grade brass cable gland engineered for reliable cable management in electrical installations. Designed with a PG16 thread, this component provides a robust mechanical connection and effective strain relief for cables entering enclosures, junction boxes, or control panels. Its high-quality brass construction ensures durability and resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor industrial environments where secure cable entry is essential.

Advantages

This cable gland offers superior protection against environmental factors due to its IP68 ingress protection rating, which guarantees a complete seal against dust and prolonged immersion in water. The brass material provides excellent mechanical strength and electromagnetic shielding properties, ensuring long-term stability and safety for electrical systems. Its design facilitates easy installation while maintaining a tight grip on the cable to prevent accidental pull-out or damage to internal connections.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical enclosures and control cabinets
• Outdoor junction boxes requiring waterproof sealing
• Machinery and automation equipment
• Commercial electrical installations

This product may not be suitable for applications involving highly corrosive chemical environments where specialized stainless steel or plastic materials are required. It is also not intended for use with cables that fall outside the specified clamping range of the PG16 standard.

Key specifications

• Thread size: PG16
• Material: Nickel-plated brass
• Ingress protection: IP68
• Function: Cable strain relief and sealing

To install the Ergom MDW 16H, insert the cable through the gland body and tighten the dome nut onto the enclosure wall. Ensure the sealing ring is properly seated to maintain the IP68 rating. Use appropriate tools to tighten the gland to the manufacturer-recommended torque to ensure a secure fit without damaging the threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the PG16 thread size matches your enclosure entry point
• Check that the cable diameter is compatible with the gland's clamping range
• Ensure the environment is compatible with brass materials

For optimal performance, always ensure the sealing gaskets are clean and free of debris before installation. Regularly inspect the gland for signs of wear or loosening in high-vibration environments to maintain the integrity of the IP68 seal.
