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. “PB” VERSIONS & TAPE ARMOUR WITH “TA” VERSIONS).
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. INCORPORATING EU DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY TO DIRECTIVE [2014/34/EU]
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 SS2K - For use with unarmoured
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 and braid armoured cable
Washer for the required IP rating. SS2K/PB - For use with unarmoured
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. and braid armoured cables
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
with lead sheaths
8. Cable glands do not have any serviceable parts and are therefore not intended to be repaired. SS2K/TA - For use with tape armour

NOTE: There is no need to dismantle the cable gland prior to installation

1. Fit the gland into the equipment and fully tighten the entry item (1). Note: “PB” version shown

5. Tighten the outer seal nut (8) until the outer seal (7) contacts the cable and then tighten one full turn
further using a spanner. Tighten the lock ring (4) against the entry item. This completes the installation.

If installed in a clearance hole, fit a locknut and tighten.

2. Determine the conductor length required to suit the geometry of the equipment and prepare the cable
accordingly. Remove the outer sheath where required to reveal the insulated conductors, lead sheath, or
tape where applicable.
