Handling the F*D0-FB-Ex4.CGB and F*D0-FB-Ex4.CGS cable gland

1. Insulate the covering of the cable up to about

160 mm.

2. Loosen the cap nuts from the

FieldBarrier and push it onto the cable.

3. Remove the seals from the inside plastic part

as well and push them onto the cable.
Move the inside plastic part far enough over
the cable that the covering is completely sur-
rounded by the seal.
The covering must not stand out over the end
of the plastic inner part.

4. Pull the shield over the inside plastic

part and shorten it to the correct length. The
shield should protrude about 3 to 4 mm be-
yond the O-ring.

5. Insert the cable with the inside plastic part

into the lower part of the cable gland.

6. Then tighten the cap nut.

The tightening torques of cap nuts depend on
what type of cable is used and must therefore
be determined by the user.
As rough guides for FieldBarrier type
F*D0-FB-Ex4.CGS you may use 4.17 Nm for
the cap nut and 6.25 Nm for the lower part.
