INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Installation should only be performed by a competent person using the correct tools. Spanners should be used for tightening. Read all instructions before beginning
installation.
2.
The interface between a cable entry device and its associated enclosure / cable entry will require additional sealing to achieve ingress protection (IP) ratings higher than
IP54. The minimum protection level is IP54 for explosive gas atmospheres and IP6X for explosive dust atmospheres. Parallel threads (and tapered threads when using
a non-threaded entry) require a CMP sealing washer or integral O-ring face seal (where available) to maintain IP66, 67 and 68 (when applicable). It is the installer's
responsibility to ensure the IP rating is maintained at the interface.
Note: When fitted to a threaded entry, all tapered threads will automatically provide an ingress protection rating of IP68.
3.
A CMP earth tag should be used when it is necessary to provide an earth bond connection. CMP earth tags have been independently tested to comply with Category
B rating specified in IEC 62444 (there are no ratings stated in IEC 60079-0). Ratings are shown in the associated table. CMP earth tags slip over the cable gland or
accessory entry thread from inside/outside the enclosure and must be secured with a locknut (if fitted internally).
4.
Metric entry threads comply with ISO 965-1 and ISO 965-3 with a 6g tolerance as required by IEC 60079-1:2014. The CMP standard metric thread pitch is 1.5mm for
threads up to M75, and 2.0mm from M90 and above. Special thread pitches between 0.7 – 2.0mm are available on all products on request. See certificate for details
of other thread types. NPT threads are in accordance with ASME B1.20.1-2013 gauging to Cl 3.2 for external threads. For details of other thread types refer to IECEx
certificate.
5.
Enclosures must be strong enough to support the cable and cable gland assembly. The enclosure surface finish must be smooth and flat to facilitate sealing with an
O-ring or Entry Thread Sealing Washer for the required IP rating.
6.
Enclosure walls must be sufficiently strong enough to support the cable and cable gland assembly. Enclosure entries shall be perpendicular. Any draft angles from the
casting/moulding process should have a perpendicular flat spot machined to facilitate sealing with an O-ring or Entry Thread Sealing Washer.
7.
CMP Products recommends that when using the cable gland with a through-hole, the hole must be circular, free of burrs and the diameter no larger than 0.7mm above
the thread major diameter. A suitable CMP Products locknut shall be used to secure the product. See CMP Products catalogue for locknut options.
8.
Cable glands do not have any serviceable parts and are therefore not intended to be repaired.
