The Helavia DG 11 membrane glands from Ses-Sterling are black-coloured, shape-stable protective components made of polychloroprene rubber, specifically designed for use in electrical and installation technology. They serve as
cable gland or
cable clamp for secure and tight cable guidance through enclosures, switch boxes or other components. The glands ensure mechanical and electrical insulation as well as protection against dust, moisture and mechanical stress. The product designation Helavia DG 11 black refers to the specific version within the HELAVIA product line, known for its high durability and reliability in industrial applications.
Applications
The membrane glands DG 11 are used in electrical installation, machine building, automation technology, and building and plant automation. They are particularly suitable for use in switch boxes, distribution boxes, control enclosures and other enclosed assemblies where secure and tight cable guidance is required. The use of polychloroprene rubber ensures high chemical resistance against oils, greases and other industrial chemicals, enabling use in demanding environments.
Functions and Features in Detail
The glands are designed as
membrane glands, meaning they feature an elastic, shape-stable membrane that adapts to the cable and ensures a tight seal. The black surface is resistant to UV radiation and ageing, extending service life in outdoor or sun-exposed installations. The glands are designed for easy installation and can be inserted into pre-drilled holes without tools. The packaging unit contains 100 pieces, suitable for larger installations or series mounting.
Technology Explained Simply
The material base of
polychloroprene rubber offers excellent elasticity and resistance to mechanical stress. This material is particularly suitable for applications requiring high flexibility and simultaneous stability. The glands are dimensioned to securely fix cables with a specific diameter without impairing the cable’s conductivity or mechanical integrity. The black surface is not only aesthetic but also functional, as it resists UV radiation and atmospheric influences.
Compatibility and Accessories
The membrane glands DG 11 are compatible with standard holes in metal and plastic enclosures designed for cable gland mounting. They can be combined with various cable types, such as control wiring, data cables or power cables, provided the cable diameter is within the specified tolerances. Use in combination with other HELAVIA profile parts enables a consistent and uniform installation execution.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply inserting the glands into the pre-drilled hole in the enclosure. The elastic membrane automatically adapts to the cable diameter and forms a tight seal. No additional tools are required. The glands are designed for fast and secure mounting in series applications, reducing installation time.
Operational Advantages
The use of membrane glands DG 11 ensures reliable and durable cable guidance, protecting against mechanical damage, dust and moisture. The high chemical resistance of the material ensures long service life, even in aggressive environments. The black finish is visually uniform and integrates well into industrial and technical environments. The packaging of 100 pieces enables economical use in larger projects.
