Split cable entry systems for cables with connectors

waterproof with up to IP66 seal

 
Split cable entry systems for cables with connectors - waterproof with up to IP66 seal

Using the patented grommet based icotek cable entry system, a large number of pre-terminated cables (up to 65 mm in diameter) and cables without connectors (up to 75 mm in diameter) can be quickly routed into enclosures, control panels or machines and be sealed with up to IP66 / UL type 4X* rated ingress protection (certified according to EN 60529 / UL50-E). In addition, the cable entry frames serve as strain reliefs on the cable (acc. to EN 62444). The split cable entry system enables quick and easy assembly which is great for retrofits and maintenance. Find out more »

Info guide – everything you need to know about split cable entry systems

The icotek split cable entry systems enable the transit of a large number of connectorised cables or complete cable harnesses in a small area. In contrast to conventional cable glands the connector doesn’t have to be cut off the cable in advance and be re-connected afterwards. Thus, the cable manufacturer's warranty remains and you save a lot of assembly time. But also electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic lines without connectors as well as corrugated conduits and hoses can be easily routed, sealed and strain relieved using split cable entry systems.

 

icotek cable entry systems - completely splittable, high cable density

The icotek cable entry system is completely split. Thus, a quick and easy assembly is possible. The preterminated cable is placed into the » split grommet which is set into one of the cable entry frame’s compartments. The grommet is now securely fixed inside the frame and can’t fall out. Due to the fine gradation of the cable diameters, there is an excellent adaptation of the grommet to the inserted cable or hose. Once the lid is affixed to the base frame, it is compressed and tightly sealed. The high compression pressure ensures strain relief according to EN 62444 and certified sealing rates up to IP66 (acc. to EN 60529) and UL type 4X* (acc. to UL 50E).

Another benefit is the high cable density of the cable entry systems that enable a space-saving assembly. For example, when using multiple grommets with some specific frame sizes, up to 120 lines can be routed in an area of 15 × 15 cm.

 

Easy assembly of the cable entry systems

The cable entry systems are either screw mounted or simply snapped into a pre-mounted snap frame. The cable entry systems are available in many different sizes which are mostly based on standard cut-outs of industrial multi-pin heavy duty connectors.
