These accessories are available for separate purchase. Custom colors, materials, cable range, and sizes can be discussed with our factory.
Installation Notes
- Verify Cable Diameter: Confirm cable OD is within the specified range for your model (typically 10–14mm).
- IP Rating: IP68 protection requires proper tightening and intact sealing ring. Standard seal typically provides IP65.
- Material Selection: Nylon is suitable for most industrial applications; brass is recommended for marine, chemical, or high-mechanical-stress environments.
- Temperature Consideration: Standard models are rated -40°C to 100°C. Custom high-temperature versions available upon request.
