Multi Hole Seals for Multiple Cables through One Gland

Running several small cables through one enclosure entry is quite possible with the right seal. Multi hole seals from AP Technology convert a single gland to take from 2 up to 8 cables, depending on size, saving extra drilled holes. They are handy on sensor clusters, compact enclosures and any installation with limited panel area. Unused holes should always be blanked, and the seal needs choosing around the actual diameter of the cables to give you a dependable seal. Blind stops are polyamide 6 closures for unused threads, keeping dust, dirt and foreign objects out of the housing. They come in circular or hexagonal types with Pg or metric threads. Protection tabs fit within a mounted gland to stop moisture or dust getting in when the cable connection will be made later. Both are available in grey, light grey and black. A gland wrench is also offered. AP Technology stocks plastic, metallic and EMC lock nuts to support the Bimed gland range. Plastic versions are glass fibre reinforced polyamide 6, with a flanged or unflanged hexagonal form, in all thread styles and a variety of colours.

Metallic lock nuts are nickel plated brass to DIN 46320 in Pg and metric threads, and EMC lock nuts are designed specifically for use with EMC glands. Interconnect problems rarely stop at one component. Because AP Technology supplies cable, connectors, glands and finished assemblies under one roof, it can look at the whole connection and not just one part of it. That is useful when a change to cable diameter affects the gland, or a different connector changes how the assembly should be built.
