The Tri-Star cable gland provides a flame proof seal on the cable inner bedding and the "gas tight" seal has been tested to prove compatibility with restricted breathing equipment that relies upon flammable gases being excluded from the main enclosure.
The Tri-Star range provides mechanical cable retention and earth continuity via the cable armour termination, and an environmental/load retention seal on to the cable outer sheath.
Designed to make installation and maintenance quick and easy the detachable armour cone and AnyWay universal clamping ring arrangement allows the cable to be easily disconnected and reconnected to equipment.
These features also allows remote make off of the cable gland, ideal where the termination is to take place in confined spaces or areas of restricted access.
Separate tightening actions for the flame proof seal and the armour termination affords maximum control over the pressure applied to the cable inner bedding, and allows for the effectiveness of the "gas tight" seal to be tested during the installation process.
