ALUMINUM CABLE CONNECTORS
FEATURES-SPECIFICATIONS
Applications
Designed for use with jacketed interlocked,
continuously corrugated and welded armor
cable (all types shown in chart below). Install
where it is essential to provide positive
grounding to the cable with a complete gas
block/explosion proof seal. Also for a Type
3,4 connection.
Features
• 360° armor grounding spring is reuseable.
• Roubust threads and world class seal
enables easy installation with minimal
torque required.
• Provides a barrier seal between the
individual insulated cores within the cable
and prevents entry of the pro-ducts of an
explosion into the cable.
• Assembly of the cable gland compresses
and distributes the compound evenly to
create a barrier seal at the point of entry
into the enclosure.
MCX
• Provides cable retention and a low smoke
and fume, zero halogen seal onto the
cables outer sheath.
• Design meets and exceeds third party
requirements for cable retention
• Provides sealing back nut plus inner
o-ring seal to prevent moisture ingress to
the cable armor and enclosure
• Copper free aluminum construction for
harsh, corrosive and hazardous duty
• Back nut is RED to indicate HAZARDOUS
area product.
