Important Notes
• The gland size does not necessarily equate to the entry thread size.
• In some cases several gland sizes can be chosen due to overlapping inner as well as outer cable diameters. Due to the wide range of armoured cables available, it is necessary to select the correct clamping range.
This is achieved by taking the inner and outer clamping range values to determine the best t (as close as possible to the Min/Max values average).
• All cable glands have a 1.5 mm pitch.
• For Flameproof Ex d applications the female thread into which the gland is to be tted must achieve an engagement of at least 5 full threads in compliance with clause 5.3 of EN/IEC 60079-1.
• Where KDSU glands are tted into non-metallic Increased Safety Ex e enclosures they must be included within the earth circuit of the system.
• Fully assembly instructions are supplied with the glands. The instructions must be read prior to installation and adhered to in full.
• When the gland is used to terminate un-armoured cables, the gland is suitable only for xed installation.
The KDSU type glands provide a universal armour clamp for steel wire, steel tape, screened or braided
cables. An electrical bond between the cable armour and the gland is ensured. The gland can also be used to
terminate un-armoured cables. In addition, the gland is tted with two separate seals to seal the outer and
inner cable insulation.
When choosing the gland with a neoprene sealing a temperature range from -35 °C to +90 °C will be
achieved. Whereas the gland with silicone sealing ensures a temperature range from -60 °C to +180 °C.
With both sealing materials an IP rating of IP68 to 25 metres (30 min. at 2.5 bar) is maintained. The KDSU is
approved for explosion protection type of pressure-resistant encapsulation Ex d and increased safety Ex e.
