Important Notes
• The gland size does not necessarily equate to the entry thread size.
• In some cases several gland sizes can be chosen due to overlapping inner as well as outer cable diameters. Due to the wide range of armoured cables available, it is necessary to select the correct clamping range.
This is achieved by taking the inner and outer clamping range values to determine the best t (as close as possible to the Min/Max values average).
• All cable glands have a 1.5 mm pitch.
• For Flameproof Ex d applications the female thread into which the gland is to be tted must achieve an engagement of at least 5 full threads in compliance with clause 5.3 of EN/IEC 60079-1.
• Where KDSX glands are tted into non-metallic Increased Safety Ex e enclosures they must be included within the earth circuit of the system.
• Fully assembly instructions are supplied with the glands. The instructions must be read prior to installation and adhered to in full.
• When the gland is used to terminate un-armoured cables, the gland is suitable only for xed installation.
• * KDSX gland size G20 with silicone seal , the silicone inner seal only seals to a minimum of 9,3 mm and NOT 6.7 mm.
The KDSX glands provide an armour clamp for braided cables. An electrical bond between the cable armour
and the gland is ensured. In addition, the gland is tted with two separate sealings to seal the outer and inner
cable insulation.
The gland maintains a temperature range from -60 °C to +180 °C. With both sealing materials an IP rating of
IP66 and IP68 to 25 metres (30 min at 2.5 bar) is maintained. The KDSX gland is approved for Flameproof
Exd and Increased Safety Ex e applications.
