CABLE GLANDS

Manufactured by Hawke

SB/ 474

Flameproof, Increased Safety, Dust Protection Certified ATEX / IECEx

  • Provides a barrier seal to the individual insulated cores within the cable and prevents entry of the products of an explosion into the cable. The required number of holes for the cores are punched in the seal by a special tool to suit core size.
  • Female running coupler for cable gland or conduit entry. Can be used to upgrade standard non-barrier gland into a flameproof Exd barrier gland

For outdoor or indoor use, the SB474 is also for particular use with cables that
are not effectively filled, compact and/or circular, have tape bedding or have
hygroscopic fillers. Also, with cables that exhibit ‘Cold Flow’ characteristics.

Barrier Gland Options

ExPress barrier resin – a liquid injectable and fast curing resin, allowing for faster installation time than
traditional 2-part compounds. Utilising a unique clear compound chamber allowing full visibility of the
flameproof seal during installation and inspection, the ExPress barrier resin is unparalleled as a global
solution.
QSP 2-part hand mix putty, simple to use with a cure time from 30 minutes. Particularly useful where
termination space is limited or cables are running horizontally to the installation area. Can be inspected and
repaired if necessary, allowing for the very highest level of safety

Barrier Gland Options Tightening Guide

Whilst Hawke International goes to great lengths to ensure products are designed to be as simple to install,
inspect and maintain as is possible, differing levels of competency, training and understanding can lead to
glands being incorrectly installed. With hazardous area products, any poor installation issues can not only lead
to expensive equipment failure, but also potential explosion risks and associated risk to life.

To help address issues with the overtightening of cable glands and the resultant damage to cables and seals,
Hawke International has developed the patented INBUILT TIGHTENING GUIDE.
Without the need for fiddly measuring systems, the guide provides a permanent visual indication of the gland
tightness through installation, inspection and maintenance.

How it works

The gland is permanently marked with various lines/numbers indicating the correct tightening level related
to the cable diameter. Following the relevant cable gland Installation Instructions, the back seal should be
tightened until a seal is formed on the cable outer sheath and then tightened one further turn.
