Coloured Cable Glands for Circuit Identification

Colour is a simple way to show which entry serves which circuit, particularly on crowded panels. AP Technology supplies coloured plastic cable glands in grey, light grey, black, red, white and blue, depending on the thread type you need. Panel builders use them to differentiate systems, match enclosure finishes or flag up particular circuits. It is a small thing that can make life easier for maintenance staff, and it costs far less than the time wasted tracing the wrong cable. The Bimed standard plastic series is one of the broadest ranges of IP68 polyamide cable glands available and is produced to EN 50262. Metric glands run from M12 to M63, Pg from Pg7 to Pg48, NPT from 3/8 to 1 1/4 and Pf from 3/8 to 1, with reducing seal versions on most threads. Colours include grey, light grey, black, red, white and blue on metric and Pg ranges. For potentially explosive areas, Bimed Ex proof glands are available in plastic and in nickel plated brass versions for armoured and non armoured cable, with ATEX approval to increased safety level e.

Final selection should always be checked against the current certificate and the zoning of your installation. If nothing standard fits, bespoke glands can also be produced by modifying existing tools or by creating new tooling.
