Mody Pumps MS 482 - Manual (Page 4)

F] CABLE GLAND ASSEMBLY: THE PUMP IS SUPPLIED WITH 50’ CABLE AS STANDARD. THE
CABLE IS AWG #10 SOOW 4 CORE WITH AN OPTION AVAILABLE FOR 7 CORE WHEN THERMAL
OVERLOADS AND SEAL PROBE SENSOR ARE REQUIRED. (MODYCAB 8-4/16-3) THE CABLE IS
TERMINATED IN THE PUMP AT THE CABLE GLAND. THE GLAND ASSEMBLY SEALS THE CABLE
ON THE OUTSIDE SHEATH. A WATER DAM ARRANGEMENT IS ALSO PROVIDED WHICH SEALS THE
INDIVIDUAL CORES OF THE CABLE. THIS FEATURE IS UNIQUE AND IS ESSENTIAL TO
PREVENT WATER SEEPING THROUGH THE CORES OF THE CABLE INTO THE TERMINAL CHAMBER
IN THE EVENT OF A CUT CABLE. THE CABLE IS ALSO SHEATHED FOR THE 1ST ONE METRE
LENGTH BY MEANS OF A CABLE GRIP MADE OF STAINLESS STEEL. THIS IS ESSENTIAL TO
ENSURE THAT THERE IS NO UNDUE STRAIN ON THE CABLE IF THE PUMP IS PULLED OR
LOWERED INADVERTENTLY BY MEANS OF THE CABLE. COMPLETE DETAILS OF THE CABLE
GLAND ASSEMBLY ARE SHOWN IN THE DRAWING. AN OPTIONAL TRAILING CABLE CAN ALSO BE
PROVIDED FOR SEAL PROBE AND THERMALS.
