Overview
Insulated adaptors are an ideal method of providing a grounding for cable armour, particularly where the instruments or equipment are highly sensitive to electrical noise. They can also reduce the circulating currents that can cause heating of high capacity cables, and segregate high and low voltage earth fault paths.
With ATEX and IECEx certification for both Ex d and Ex e environments, these insulated adaptors are suitable for a wide range of applications in a global market.
Insulated adaptors have a glass filled nylon insulating body and are available with a combination of metallic materials for entries if required. This eliminates the risk of galvanic corrosion in seawater and similar environments where dissimilar metals are in constant contact.
As with all Redapt adaptors and reducers, insulated adaptors may be used as a thread conversion accessory whilst maintaining Exd/Exe certification.
- ATEX and IECEx certification for International compliance
- Ex d and Ex e protection
- Eliminates electrical noise, providing a ‘clean’ earth for sensitive instruments
- Combination of entry metals to avoid galvanic corrosion
