INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CMP GLAND TYPE A2FRC
CABLE GLAND COMPONENTS
1. Entry Item
2. Seal
3. Skid Washer
4. Seal Nut
5. Conduit Coupling
PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION

1. The A2FRC cable gland is suitable for all types of unarmoured cables, providing a flameproof
seal on the outer sheath of the cable. It also has a rotating female-threaded coupling at the
rear of the gland to allow the attachment of conduit.
This gland can also be used with braided cables where sealing is made on the cable outer
sheath and the braid is earthed inside the equipment when this arrangement is allowed by
the prevailing installation code of practice.
521
4. Determine the conductor length required to suit the installation and prepare the cable
accordingly, removing part of the outer sheath where required to reveal the insulated
conductors.
5. Pass the cable through the gland to the desired position, then tighten the seal nut by hand
until resistance is felt (when the seal contacts the cable). Tighten with a spanner one
further turn.
2. There is no need to dismantle the cable gland prior to installation. Simply slacken the Seal
Nut (4) to relax the seal (2).
3. Fit the gland into the equipment and fully tighten the Entry Item (1).
6. Attach the conduit to the Conduit Coupler (5) and fully tighten. Ensure that the Seal Nut
(4) does not come loose during this process by holding it with a spanner.
