Lapp SKINDICHT RWV-M M20x1.5 Angled Cable Gland IP55

The Lapp SKINDICHT RWV-M M20x1.5 is a professional-grade angled cable gland engineered to provide a secure and organized cable entry point in confined installation environments. This component is specifically designed to facilitate 90-degree cable routing, effectively reducing the bending radius and preventing mechanical stress on cables in industrial settings. With its robust construction and precise M20x1.5 metric thread, it ensures a reliable connection for various electrical installations.

Advantages

This angled cable gland offers significant space-saving benefits by allowing cables to exit at a right angle, which is essential for installations where clearance is limited. The design provides excellent strain relief, ensuring that cables remain firmly in place even under vibration or movement. Its durable material composition guarantees long-term performance, while the IP55 rating provides a dependable barrier against dust ingress and water spray, maintaining the integrity of the electrical connection in challenging environments.

Suitable for

• Industrial machinery and equipment
• Control cabinets and electrical enclosures
• Automation systems and robotics
• Applications requiring space-saving 90-degree cable routing

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for high-pressure washdown environments or full submersion, as it is rated for IP55 protection. It should not be used in applications requiring higher ingress protection levels such as IP68 or IP69K.

Key specifications

• Thread size: M20x1.5
• Angle: 90 degrees
• Protection rating: IP55
• Material: High-quality industrial grade
• Function: Strain relief and cable protection

How to use

To install the Lapp SKINDICHT RWV-M, ensure the mounting surface is clean and the hole is correctly sized for an M20 thread. Insert the gland into the enclosure and secure it firmly using the appropriate locking nut. Feed the cable through the gland and tighten the cap to engage the strain relief mechanism, ensuring the cable is held securely without damaging the outer jacket. Verify that the seal is properly seated to maintain the IP55 protection rating.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size of your enclosure matches the M20x1.5 specification.
• Check if the IP55 rating meets the environmental requirements of your specific application.
• Ensure the cable diameter is compatible with the clamping range of the gland.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP55 rating, always ensure the cable is inserted straight into the gland before tightening and avoid over-tightening the components, which could damage the sealing elements.
