We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Cable Glands",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Industrial electrical enclosures catalogued from
Rolec Enclosures, which we summarised at the time by saying "A comprehensive catalogue details a huge range of industrial enclosures, which are designed for electrical and electronic applications".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Non-metallic instrumentation enclosures are rugged from
Spelsberg els UK: "Rugged, versatile, non-metallic enclosures for a wide range of tough environments ensure reliable durability including moisture ingress protection up to IP68".
In August 2007, we covered the news from CMP Products
concerning its Universal cable glands
- take a look at Cable glands installed and maintained easily
which says: "Universal cable glands are easy to install and maintain and are triple certified Flameproof and are suitable for use in Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21, Zone 22 Hazardous areas for all types of cables".
Take a look also at the news release from Penny + Giles, Low cost sensor signal conditioning module,
as well as ATEX compatible cable glands for hazardous areas from Kopex International,
and Five-pole connector for sensor applications from Harting.
