FORTRA TFUV EMC | Explosive Atmospheres Cable Gland For All Types of Armoured & Braided / Screened Cables
We'd like to keep in touch
We have some exciting things in the pipeline - if you'd like to be the first to know please enter your email address below.
- Unique patented captive Adaptive Cone for all types of armour or braid, with captive AnyWay clamping ring
- Metal-to-metal armour clamping; no installation or inspection ambiguity
- Unique grounding device provides a 360 degree, low impedance contact around a cable EMC/VFD screen for superior EMC performance, or for continuity to a lead sheath
- Fewer installation steps for faster process. Unique ‘Quick’ Thread for faster armour clamping
- Flameproof inner diaphragm seal – safe, reliable & robust; no installation or inspection ambiguity
- Excellent cold flow performance with third party verified test report on cable types used globally
- Outer seal with wider cable acceptance, meaning fewer stocking sizes
- IP66, 67, 68, 69 & 69K as standard with fully enclosed/protected deluge seal for third party compliance to DTS 01:91
- Compact design; ideal for applications with limited installation space
- Fewer tools required for installation and maintenance
Tightening tools may be required to aid installation. For further information, please click here.

Local codes of practice or regulations may be in force to ensure that safety is maintained to eliminate the possibility of accidents arising from the danger of electricity. These dangers would include electric shock, burns, fire, explosion and arcing. In the United Kingdom the ESQCR 2002, and amendments 2006 (S.I. No. 1521) and 2009 (S.I. No. 639), introduced under Statutory Instrument No. 2665, and the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 (EAW Regulations), which came into force on 1 April 1990, comprehensively deal with this subject.

Tests were carried out in an anechoic chamber using various CMP cable glands with a section of cable connected to it which would act as an aerial. A known electrical radiation source was used to introduce interference into the chamber, and the level of radiation in the cable shield was measured.
