Feature Summary

• Provides removable cable egress and entry capabilities
• Maintains UL, CSA, and IP integrity of the enclosure
• Constructed from 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Designed specifically for hazardous location applications

Applications

• Hazardous location enclosure cable entry systems
• Industrial environments requiring UL/CSA/IP integrity
• Surface mounted enclosure modifications
• Cable management in corrosive atmospheres

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires a gland plate compatible with 24x8 inch surface enclosures. Confirm that the 316 stainless steel material meets environmental corrosion requirements. Ensure the installation includes all necessary fasteners and gaskets to maintain enclosure integrity. Check for compatibility with existing cable sealing arrangements and hazardous area classifications before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a removable gland plate is required for 24x8 inch enclosures in hazardous locations. The 316 stainless steel construction offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel options. Consider the unpainted brushed finish for environments where coating durability is critical. Verify that the cutout dimensions align with the specific cable entry needs and existing enclosure design constraints.
