FAQs

What does IP68 mean?

IP68 is an international protection rating indicating that the cable gland is dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water under conditions specified by the manufacturer (in this case, generally up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes).

Can this gland be used with flat or oval cables?

No, this specific cable gland is designed exclusively for round cables only.

What is the maximum cable diameter this gland can accommodate?

This M22 gland is designed for cables with an outer diameter ranging from 10mm to 14mm.

What material is the gland made from?

The gland is constructed from Nylon 66, which is a durable and UL-rated plastic.

How do I ensure a weatherproof seal?

Ensure the cable is centered within the neoprene seal and tighten the locking nut firmly. The neoprene seal will compress around the cable, creating the weatherproof barrier.

What is the operating temperature range?

The cable gland is designed to operate reliably in temperatures between -30°C and 80°C.

Are washers included with the gland?

Yes, each gland comes with an integrated washer that aids in mounting it to an enclosure or socket.

Troubleshooting

Gland does not seal properly

Verify the cable diameter is within the 10-14mm range. Ensure the locking nut is tightened sufficiently. Check that the neoprene seal is correctly seated and free from debris.

Difficulty threading the gland

Confirm the mounting hole is M22 threaded. Ensure there are no obstructions or cross-threading on the enclosure or gland.

Cable is not held securely

Check if the cable diameter is at the lower end of the specified range. Ensure the locking nut has been tightened enough to compress the seal adequately around the cable.

Gland cracked or broken

Avoid overtightening the locking nut beyond what is necessary to create a seal. If damaged, replace the gland.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a robust IP68 rated weatherproof seal.
  • Constructed from durable, UL-rated Nylon 66 material.
  • Suitable for a wide operating temperature range (-30°C to 80°C).
  • Includes a neoprene seal for enhanced protection.
  • Easy to install with the integrated washer.

Cons

  • Only suitable for round cables.
  • Limited cable entry range (10-14mm).
  • Black color may not suit all aesthetic requirements.
  • Requires an M22 threaded opening for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the enclosure or mounting surface has a pre-drilled M22 threaded hole.
  2. Select a cable gland that matches the diameter of your round cable (10-14mm for this model).
  3. Loosen the locking nut and carefully feed the cable through the gland.
  4. Insert the main body of the gland into the M22 hole, ensuring the washer is correctly positioned.
  5. Tighten the locking nut securely onto the enclosure thread. This will compress the neoprene seal around the cable, creating the weatherproof seal.
  6. Ensure the cable is positioned correctly within the seal for optimal protection.

Compatibility:

  • Cable Type: Designed exclusively for round cables.
  • Cable Diameter: Suitable for cables with an outer diameter between 10mm and 14mm.
  • Thread Size: Requires an M22 threaded entry point.
  • Material: Compatible with various enclosure materials including metal and plastic.

Care:

  • Periodically inspect the gland for any signs of damage or degradation, especially in harsh environments.
  • Ensure the locking nut remains tight to maintain the seal integrity.
  • Clean the exterior of the gland with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using harsh solvents that could degrade the Nylon 66 or neoprene.
