How to use

To install the Legrand cable gland, insert the cable through the gland body before securing the gland into the pre-drilled hole of the enclosure. Tighten the locknut firmly to ensure a secure fit against the enclosure wall. Once the gland is fixed, insert the cable to the desired length and tighten the dome nut to compress the internal seal around the cable jacket, creating a watertight and dust-tight connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the PG16 thread size matches your enclosure entry point
• Ensure the cable diameter is compatible with the clamping range of the PG16 gland
• Check that the environmental conditions do not exceed the IP68 protection limits

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP68 seal, ensure that the cable is inserted straight and that the dome nut is tightened sufficiently to compress the internal gasket evenly around the cable sheath.
