Double Compression Flame Proof Cable Glands About
Product Description
Ensure safe and reliable cable termination in hazardous industrial environments with the
Double Compression Flameproof Cable Gland. Designed for both
indoor and outdoor hazardous areas, this cable gland provides a
flameproof seal on the cable inner sheath and an
environmental seal on the outer sheath, ensuring maximum protection against dust, moisture, and explosive atmospheres.
Manufactured in
Brass CW614N, Nickel Plated Brass, or SS316L Stainless Steel, the gland offers exceptional corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and long service life. Its double compression design provides excellent cable retention while maintaining electrical continuity through the armour wire, making it ideal for
SWA (Single Wire Armour) and
STA (Steel Tape Armour) cables.
Certified with
CIMFR and PESO approvals and manufactured according to
EN/IEC 60079 standards, this cable gland is suitable for
Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous locations where reliable flameproof cable entry is essential.

FAQ's of Double Compression Flame Proof Cable Glands:
Q: How are double compression flame proof cable glands installed in industrial environments?
A: Installation involves threading the gland onto an appropriate entry point, then securing the cable using the double compression mechanism. The process creates tight seals with the neoprene washer and nylon gaskets, resulting in flameproof and weatherproof protection.
Q: What makes these cable glands suitable for hazardous industrial areas?
A: Their flameproof design, IP67 rating, robust materials, and double compression locking combine to prevent the ingress of dust, water, and hazardous gases, making them ideal for use in potentially explosive or dangerous settings.
Q: When should I select these glands over single compression types?
A: Double compression cable glands are appropriate when enhanced environmental sealing and mechanical strength are necessary, such as in areas exposed to frequent vibration, moisture, or hazardous substances.
Q: Where can these cable glands be used within industrial applications?
A: They are typically used in areas with armoured cables feeding equipment in hazardous or outdoor environments, including chemical plants, oil refineries, and other locations requiring flameproof cable protection.
Q: What is the advantage of the PE jacket and neoprene seal?
A: The PE jacket and neoprene seal provide high resistance to chemicals, weather extremes, and mechanical stress, extending the working life of the cable gland while maintaining effective insulation and safety.
Q: How do these glands accommodate various cable sizes and types?
A: With a diameter range from 16 mm to 88 mm and compatibility with both SWA and STA types, the design supports single or multi-core cables, accommodating a broad spectrum of industrial wiring needs.
