Why Choose the Rittal SZ 2843.160 EMC Cable Gland?
The Rittal SZ 2843.160 is a robust EMC cable gland with an M16 metric connection, designed to provide secure cable entry, strain relief and reliable electromagnetic compatibility in industrial electrical enclosures. As part of the Rittal SZ EMC cable gland range, it helps maintain cable shielding while creating a conductive connection between the cable shield and the enclosure.
The gland is manufactured from nickel-plated brass with a CR/NBR seal. Integrated clamping membranes provide reliable tightening and cable-friendly strain relief, while the supplied lock nut automatically cuts through painted enclosure surfaces during installation to establish a conductive connection.
The SZ 2843.160 accepts cables with diameters from 4.5 mm to 10 mm and has a minimum shield diameter of 3 mm. It provides IP68 protection according to IEC 60529 and IP69K protection, making it suitable for demanding industrial enclosure applications.

Reliable EMC Cable Entry for Industrial Enclosures
The Rittal SZ 2843.160 is designed to provide both secure cable entry and effective EMC shielding continuity. The cable sheath can be interrupted at the contact point or removed inside the enclosure, allowing the cable shielding to remain intact within the cabinet.
During installation, the supplied lock nut cuts into painted enclosure surfaces to establish a conductive connection. This, together with the integrated clamping membranes, provides reliable strain relief while supporting the electrical continuity required for shielded cable installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical and control enclosures.
- EMC cable entry for automation systems.
- Shielded cable installations in control cabinets.
- Machine control and industrial automation equipment.
- Electrical panels requiring reliable cable strain relief.
- Applications requiring IP68 or IP69K cable entry protection.
- Industrial installations requiring conductive cable shield connections.
