Pelco OCTEXA1/2C Armored ATEX Cable Gland
The Pelco OCTEXA1/2C is a 1/2 NPT armored cable gland engineered for hazardous location installations requiring ATEX/IECEx certification. Designed specifically for armored cable applications, this gland provides dual-grip technology that secures both the outer armor layer and inner jacket, ensuring mechanical protection and proper strain relief in explosion-proof enclosures.
Key Features
- ATEX/IECEx/EAC certification for classified hazardous areas
- 1/2 NPT threaded entry for standard industrial connections
- Dual-grip design for armored cable armor and jacket
- Mechanical protection and strain relief
- NDAA Section 889 compliant
- 1-year warranty included
Technical Specifications
Part Number: OCTEXA1/2C | Thread: 1/2 NPT | Cable Type: Armored | Classification: Accessory
Critical Installation Notes
This armored gland is required wherever armored cable enters explosion-proof enclosures in classified areas. Using a non-armored gland with armored cable fails to grip the armor layer properly, compromising cable retention and certification compliance. For non-armored cable applications, specify the OCTEX1/2C standard gland instead. Always verify cable armor type, diameter, clamping range, zone classification, and applicable gas group certification before installation.
Applications
Ideal for hazardous location surveillance deployments, petrochemical facilities, mining operations, and other regulated industrial environments where explosion-proof cable management is mandatory.
