NEW LSF & PVC Shrouds

CMP manufactures a range of push on shrouds which are used to minimise the risk of dirt or foreign substances gathering on the Cable Gland body, and/or point of cable to cable gland interface.

• CMP Standard shrouds are produced in Black PVC.
• CMP Blue/Grey SOLO Low Smoke & Fume (LSF) Halogen Free shrouds are also available.

The end of the shroud is a closed-off design with a smooth, continuous finish. The improved design increases stability and ensures a flat surface on the entry-face, providing an improved interface seal with the enclosure or equipment.

The LSF & PVC shrouds are designed with embossed cable diameter ‘cut lines’ for ease of fitting, allowing the installer to pre-cut the shroud to suit their specific cable diameter, providing a tighter fit to the cable outer sheath.

It should be noted that although the addition of a shroud may aid the process of keeping the surface of the cable gland free from the build up of dust or dirt, this does not necessarily improve the Ingress Protection rating of the installed cable gland. Generally cable glands are tested for ingress protection without a shroud being present. In certain conditions the addition of a shroud or other form of external covering may retain unwanted moisture creating a greater threat of penetration than that which it is intended to prevent. In such cases a CMP Deluge Proof cable gland is recommended which negates the need for the use of a shroud and protects the critical migration paths into the interior of the cable gland.

Alternative colours including Red, Blue and White are available to suit a wide variety of customer requirements, other colours are available on request.
