13. DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT
The KDSW, KDSX, KOSW and KOSX ranges of cable glands are intended for use with SWA/Tape/Woven
Steel Wire/Braided armoured cables. KDSW and KDSX glands comprise a threaded entry body, inner
elastomeric sealing ring, armour cone, clamp ring and compression cap; and a rear seal assembly
comprising a back nut, skid washer and outer sealing ring. The entry body is available with an optional
outer deluge seal or an integral earthing clamp. KOSW and KOSX glands are of the same construction
but without the inner elastomeric sealing ring. Sealing rings are available in silicone or neoprene.
Glands are available in the size range 16 to 100 with ISO metric entry threads of M16 to M100
respectively. Alternative thread sizes and forms ISO metric, NPT, NPSM, BSPT, BSPP, PG and ET are
available. The KDSW and KDSX glands have an ingress protection rating of IP66 and IP68 (50 metres 7
days) and the KOSW and KOSX glands have an ingress protection rating of IP66.
Variation 1 - This variation introduced the following changes:
i. To permit the batch number shown in the actual product marking to be removed.
ii. The addition of cone & clamp ring part numbers.
iii. The introduction of the KDSW, KDSX, KOSW and KOSX glands that have an IP66 rating and the
consequential modification of the special conditions for safe use.
iv. The external cylindrical diameter of the M85, M90 and M100 glands to be enlarged by 5mm to
rease the size of the marking area.
Variation 2 - This variation introduced the following changes:
i. The removal of code 2 lead conductive neoprene seals from KDSW, KDSX, KOSW and KOSX,
range of cable glands.
ii. The removal of code P lead inner seal from the KDSW, KDSX, KOSW and KOSX , range of cable
glands for lead sheathed cables and to replace it with a new code 2 neoprene seal used with a
brass continuity washer.
iii. The extension of the upper ambient service temperature limit to +85°C for cable glands
orporating neoprene seals (60° IRHD).
iv. The modification of clause 15.2 in the special conditions for safe use.
v. The removal of the temperature range markings from the seals.
vi. The introduction of drawing amendments and up dates that are in-line with current practice.
Variation 3 - This variation introduced the following changes:
i. Following appropriate re-assessment to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of the
EN 60079 series of standards, the documents originally listed in section 9, EN 50014:1997
(amendments 1 and 2), EN 50018:2000, EN 50019:2000 and EN 50281-1-1:1998, were replaced
by those currently listed, the markings in section 12 were updated accordingly.
