• Mildly corrosive environments: food workshops, weak acid/alkali workshops, coastal salt-spray areas
• Vibrational environments: automated production lines, engineering machinery, vehicle equipment
• Wide-temperature environments: frigid outdoor areas, high-temperature workshops, outdoor enclosures with large temperature fluctuations

Non-applicable Scenarios

• Long-term immersion in highly corrosive chemicals (strong acids, strong alkalis, strong organic solvents)
• Explosion-proof high-risk zones such as coal mines and petrochemical facilities (special Ex-certified version required)
• Direct contact with ultra-high heat sources or long-term exposure over 120℃
• Fixing of high-voltage armored cables and oversized special cables

5. Selection & Installation Guidelines

1. Match the cable diameter range according to the actual outer diameter of the cable, preferably within the middle interval to ensure sealing and clamping force.
2. Select the thread according to the equipment interface; prefer the original thread of the equipment to avoid reducing the protection level with adapters.
3. EPDM or silicone seals are recommended for outdoor, high-humidity, and salt-spray environments; NBR seals for oil-resistant applications.
4. Tighten the compression nut evenly during installation; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to nylon threads. Use O-rings and gaskets to ensure IP68 sealing.
