Selection checks

Choose the right size and construction

Measure the cable diameter and identify the enclosure thread. These details determine which gland will fit.

  1. Cable screen constructionIdentify the braid or screen that the EMC contact will touch.
  2. Screen contact diameterMeasure the exposed screen diameter and match it to the contact range.
  3. Enclosure bonding pathThe EMC contact needs a conductive path through the gland to the enclosure bonding system.

EMC Cable Glands FAQ

Cable gland questions

Find answers about fit, assembly and product differences.

EMC Cable Glands

01Which cable diameters matter for an EMC gland?

Check both the outside jacket diameter for sealing and the screen diameter for electrical contact. A gland can fit the jacket but still have the wrong screen-contact range.

02Can the cable screen stay covered by the outer jacket?

The gland contact needs to reach the screen. Follow the preparation dimensions for the chosen contact design, including how much jacket to remove and whether the screen is folded back.

MG-Series EMC Cable Gland

MG-Series EMC Cable Gland

01What distinguishes MG EMC from the ordinary MG gland?

The EMC construction adds contact to the cable screen. The ordinary MG gland provides the cable-entry and sealing construction without that screen-contact function.

02Is cable outside diameter enough to choose an EMC gland?

No. The screen construction and contact diameter also matter. Cable-jacket diameter identifies the sealing range, while the exposed screen must fit the contact arrangement.

Spring-Contact EMC Cable Gland

Spring-Contact EMC Cable Gland

01How is the screen contacted in this gland?

A spring contacts the exposed cable screen inside the gland. The screen preparation and contact diameter must suit that spring.

02Does the screen contact replace cable sealing?

No. The spring makes the electrical contact; the NBR sealing parts act around the cable. Both interfaces must fit the selected cable.

D-Series EMC Cable Gland

D-Series EMC Cable Gland

01Can a D-series gland replace a spring-contact EMC gland?

Not from the EMC label alone. The screen-contact construction, cable preparation and mounting dimensions must match the installation.

02What cable information identifies a D-series size?

Provide the jacket outside diameter and the screen construction and diameter. These describe the separate sealing and screen-contact interfaces.

F-Series EMC Cable Gland for Metric Entries

F-Series EMC Cable Gland for Metric Entries

01What thread system does the F series use?

The F-series gland uses Metric threads. PG, G and NPT versions belong to other constructions in the EMC range.

02Does choosing an EMC gland guarantee the equipment’s shielding performance?

No. The cable screen, contact arrangement and enclosure bonding form one system. The gland provides the screen-contact component within that system.

03Which F-series dimensions are available for selection?

The table gives the entry thread, cable range and wrench dimensions. Request the current drawing for thread length and overall height before machining the enclosure.
