Reliable Cable Sealing and Armour Termination for Outdoor Electrical Installations
Outdoor electrical installations require cable entry components capable of providing secure mechanical retention while helping protect electrical equipment against environmental exposure. The Partex PXCW-40L CW brass cable gland combines a mechanical armour clamping arrangement with compression sealing around the cable outer sheath. This arrangement helps maintain the integrity of the cable entry while providing dependable termination for compatible armoured cables.
The PXCW-40L accommodates cable outside diameters between 32.2 mm and 40.0 mm and features an M40 metric entry thread. Correct installation requires verification of cable dimensions and armour compatibility, appropriate cable preparation, proper tightening of gland components and a suitable protective earthing arrangement. The completed installation must also maintain the required ingress protection of the electrical enclosure.
Typical Applications
- Outdoor steel wire armoured cable terminations.
- Industrial low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Outdoor electrical junction boxes and termination enclosures.
- Electrical switchgear and distribution board cable entries.
- Armoured power cable connections to industrial machinery.
- Commercial and industrial building electrical installations.
