Operation and assembly instructions for cable and line glands
“Increased safety – E Ex “e” ignition protection level
Product ref.: U 2. UNI E Ex e, nickel-plated brass
Use
“U 2. UNI E Ex e” cable and line glands are used for inserting permanently laid cables and lines into the connection room or casing of explosion-
proof electrical equipment belonging to device group II and to categories 2 G/D and 3 G/D.
The connection room or casing must meet the “Increased safety – E Ex “e” ignition protection level according to EN Standards EN 50014:1992, EN
50019:1994 and EN 50281-1-1:1998.
The cable and line gland is suitable for equipment classified as having a “high” degree of mechanical danger according to EN 50014.
When selecting the material of the sealing inserts, the environment as well as surface and operation temperatures at the installation site must be taken
into account.
If the cable glands are properly fitted, it is possible to comply with IP 68 protection level according to IEC 529 or EN 60529. The minimum protection
level required for connection rooms (IP 54) are met in any case.
Marking
The “U 2. UNI E Ex e” cable glands comply with standards EN 50014:1992, EN 50019:1994 and EN 50281-1-1:1998. They were subjected to an EU
design test according to EU-Directive 94/9/ EC by the “Physikalisch - Technische Bundesanstalt” (German national physical-technical institute).
They are thus marked as follows:
II 2 G/D
E Ex e II
PTB 98 ATEX 3109
IP 68
XX
and are also marked with the connection thread type and size, e.g. M 16 or PG 21.
N.B.: In accordance with EU-directive 94/9/ EG, CE marking does not apply to components.
The sealing inserts made from
PVC are colour-coded depending on sealing use according to
Table 1
.
LSR are transparent,
TPE - V are a natural grey/beige colour.
The maximum diameter for the line to be inserted is specified on the sealing insert.
