Pelco OCTEX1/2-3/4P Conduit Gland Reduction NPT
The Pelco OCTEX1/2-3/4P is a certified NPT thread reduction fitting engineered for ATEX/IECEx hazardous location cable gland assemblies. This adapter reduces a 3/4 NPT conduit entry to 1/2 NPT, enabling seamless integration when cable glands and housing entries have mismatched thread sizes. Essential for compliant deployment in classified hazardous areas.
Key Features
- Reduces 3/4 NPT to 1/2 NPT thread size
- ATEX/IECEx certified for hazardous location installations
- Maintains certified assembly integrity when properly specified
- NDAA Section 889 compliant for federal procurement
- 1-year manufacturer warranty
Technical Highlights
This conduit gland reduction is designed to adapt housing entry sizes to smaller-diameter cable glands in environments requiring Zone 1, Zone 2, or other classified hazard ratings. Thread compatibility with both housing entry and cable gland must be verified before installation to ensure certification remains valid. Use of uncertified reductions in a certified assembly voids the housing's hazardous area rating and may create compliance violations.
Applications
Ideal for oil and gas facilities, chemical processing plants, mining operations, and other industrial environments where ATEX/IECEx certification is mandatory. Supports professional surveillance and industrial automation system installations requiring certified conduit transitions.
