Alternative Reversible Armour Clamping Rings (RAC) • Provides a barrier seal between the individual insulated cores • • • • • • within the cable and prevents entry of the products 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. The compound chamber may be separated from the cured compound to ensure that the chamber has been effectively filled. If required, external voids can be repaired. Provides armour clamping, using one clamping arrangement for all armour / braid types. Provides a cable retention seal and low smoke and fume, zero halogen seal onto the cables outer sheath.
