Illustrated explanation
2Double-compression glandOne sheath seal and two sheath seals
- Single-compression gland
One illustrated sheath interface is compressed. Check which cable layer is sealed and how the armour is terminated.
- Double-compression glandThis term
Two illustrated sheath interfaces are sealed separately. The inner and outer cable diameters both need verification.
In these conceptual armoured-gland sections, one construction seals the outer sheath and the other also seals an inner covering. Armour clamping remains a separate interface.
Seal count does not identify a universal gland construction or prove explosion protection. Cable layers and the actual assembly instructions determine the permitted arrangement.
