For Cable Entries
Entry Thread Seals – Sealing (IP) Washers
• It is essential to maintain the integrity of the degree of IP protection for which explosionproof equipment have been rated. The need for a
sealing washer will depend on the IP rating, code of protection and the type of entry holes available within that equipment (e.g. for Ex e
apparatus or terminal boxes which are permitted to have untapped through clearance holes it is necessary to t a sealing washer to ensure
that the minimum IP54 requirement is met). Other equipment with tapped entry holes may not require a sealing washer to maintain the
rated integrity of the instal lation.
• Entry thread sealing washers are produced in 2mm thick white nylon as standard which are recommended and meet the specied
requirements of Shell’s Offshore operations.
• To verify the effectiveness of the nylon entry sealing washers, independent 3rd party tests to BS EN 60529:1992 have been conducted on
certain cable gland types at IP66, IP67 and IP68 levels of protection. Documentation of these high standard tests is available upon request.
