How to use
To install the cable gland, insert the threaded body through the pre-drilled hole in the enclosure wall and secure it firmly using the provided locknut. Once the gland is mounted, loosen the dome nut, pass the cable through the gland, and tighten the dome nut until the internal seal compresses securely around the cable jacket. This process ensures both a watertight seal and reliable strain relief for the connected cable.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the M20x1.5 thread size matches your enclosure requirements.
- Ensure the cable diameter falls within the specified clamping range of the gland.
- Confirm that the polyamide material is compatible with the intended operating environment.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance and to maintain the IP68 rating, ensure the dome nut is tightened sufficiently to create a uniform seal around the cable, and always use the appropriate tools to avoid damaging the plastic housing.
