3. Ensure that the seal (located within the entry item) is in a relaxed state
by loosening the outer seal nut
4. If required pass the shroud over the cable. Pass the cable through the
gland to desired position, then tighten the outer seal nut by hand into the
entry item until heavy resistance is felt, then rotate one full turn with a
spanner

3. Locate the detachable armour cone (C) into the recess of the entry
component. Pass cable through entry component and evenly spacing the
armour around the cone.
FOR REMOTE INSTALLATION - PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION
1. If required fit shroud over the cable outer sheath
Prepare the cable by removing the cable outer sheath and the armour to
suit the geometry of the equipment. Remove a further 18mm (maximum)
of outer sheath to expose the armour. If applicable remove any tapes or
wrappings to expose the cable inner sheath. Separate the cable gland
entry component from sub-assembly B. Ensuring that the outer seal is
relaxed, pass sub-assembly B over the cable outer sheath and armour
followed by the AnyWay clamping ring (R).
Note: On maximum size cables the clamping ring may only pass over the
armour.
2. Locate the detachable armour cone (C) into the recess of the entry
component. Pass cable through entry component evenly spacing the
armour around the cone.
3. Hold the entry component, and whilst continuing to push the cable
forward to maintain the armour in contact with the cone tighten the body
of sub-assembly B onto entry component ensuring the two components
make metal to metal contact.
For clearance hole installation secure gland with locknut, and serrated
washer, if required

FOR TERMINATION OF CABLES WITH WIRE BRAID, TAPE ARMOUR (STA / DSTA), STRIP ARMOUR, &
SINGLE WIRE ARMOUR (SWA), AND INTENDED FOR USE IN POTENTIALLY FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERES
(HAZARDOUS AREAS)
ACCESSORIES
The following accessories are available from CMP Products, as optional extras, to assist with fixing, sealing and earthing :Locknut | Earth Tag | Serrated Washer | Entry Thread (I.P.) Sealing Washer | Shroud *
CORRECT TOOLS
Always use the correct tools, as incorrect tools will inevitably lead to mistakes, potential damage and/or personal injury. Gloves are recommended when
handling and terminating cables and cable glands.
Dedicated Cable Gland spanners for each cable gland size are available from CMP Products, and these are recommended for installing the product
correctly. Adjustable spanners and wrenches are not recommended as there is a possibility of slippage that can lead to accidental injury or damage to
surface finish.
Any sharp tools, instruments or knives used to cut or strip the cable sheath should be equipped with a safety blade or other safety feature consistent with
the tool design and intended use.
Braid snips should be used to remove unwanted or excess cable braid. Ensure that braid snips are in good condition and effectively sharp enough to enable
a first time clean cut of the cable braid without snagging.
A hacksaw, or other similar tool, should be used to cut armour wires. Hacksaw blades should be checked regularly and replaced when worn, or whenever
evidence that a consistent first time clean cut is no longer possible. Note, when cutting armour wires, care should be taken to avoid cutting into the inner
cable sheath beneath the armour wires.
Please refer to CMP Products in sourcing tools if required, who would be happy to assist.
Safety and personal protection should be given priority over all other considerations.
Depending upon the specific form of protection of the main equipment it may be necessary to fit an I.P. sealing washer, at the cable entry interface, to
maintain the appropriate Ingress Protection levels. For Increased Safety (Ex e) equipment, or Increased Safety terminal chambers found on Ex de
equipment, a sealing washer is essential to maintain the minimum Ingress Protection rating, and should always be fitted. For other forms of protection,
e.g. Flameproof Ex d apparatus, the inclusion of a sealing washer is optional. CMP (I.P.) Sealing Washers, which are installed at the cable entry interface,
between the equipment enclosure and the cable entry device (cable gland) have been 3rd party tested in Ingress Protection tests to BS EN 60529
Always ensure that the correct fixing accessories provided by CMP Products are used, as appropriate to secure the cable glands into the mating
equipment. In addition to (I.P.) Sealing Washers, CMP Products are also able to provide Locknuts, Earth Tags, and Serrated Washers which should be used
as appropriate to the equipment configuration. Usually for any equipment other than Ex d apparatus, it will be necessary to use as a minimum a Locknut,
and also a Serrated Washer if the enclosure of the equipment or application requires it.The addition of an Earth Tag will depend upon the earth
continuity provision of the enclosures installed.
Cable Gland seals are included within the cable gland when despatched from the factory.There should be no circumstances where seals need to be
removed from the cable gland. Care should be taken to avoid exposure of cable gland seals to dirt, hostile substances, e.g. solvents, and other foreign
bodies.
The cable gland is not a user serviceable product and spare parts are not permitted to be supplied under the certification.
Cable Glands should not be installed whilst circuits are live. Similarly, following energising of the electrical circuits, cable glands should not be dismantled
or opened until the circuit has been safely de-energised.
I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the equipment referred to herein conforms to 94/9/EC directive.

Notified Body: Sira Certification Service, Rake Lane, Chester CH4 9JN, England.
Cable Gland components are not interchangeable with those of any other cable gland manufacturer. It is important to note that components from one
manufacturer's product cannot be used in that of another, and that modification of a cable gland product will invalidate the hazardous area certification.
The following instructions should be followed when terminating barrier type cable
glands onto cables containing Drain Wire/s.
