 ADAPTORS

Raxton Exd/Exe Adaptors provide a means of connection between dissimilar thread forms
or sizes. Certified Adaptors should be used following the basic rules in line with good
engineering practice:- no more than one conversion Adaptor should be used at one time
on any given cable entry. Stopping Plugs should be fitted directly into unused entries of
Type AJ Round the equipment and not into an Adaptor.
Metallic Adaptors have a hexagonal body. Where space is a critical factor, Adaptors can be
offered with a round body with a diameter equal to the A/F dimension of the standard item.
Nylon Adaptors are Exe only and are produced with a round body.
Exe Adaptors are supplied fitted with an ‘O’ ring to maintain the IP integrity of the
installation.
Type AB Hex
Raxton Adaptors are marked with the applicable approval number and size.
Independently tested to IP68.

REDUCERS

Raxton Exd/Exe Reducers effectively reduce the threaded entry diameter of an enclosure to
accept a gland or fitting with a smaller thread. Reducers may also be supplied to accept
smaller glands of alternative threads.
Following the basic rules in line with good engineering practices, no more than one
Type BJ Round Reducer should be used at any one time. Stopping Plugs should be fitted directly into
unused entries of the equipment and not into a Reducer.
Metallic Reducers are supplied with a hexagonal head as standard. Where space is a
critical factor, Reducers with a circular head can be offered with a diameter equal to the
A/F dimension of the hexagonal head.
Type BB Hex
Nylon Reducers are Exe only and designed with a circular head. Exe Reducers are supplied
with an ‘O’ ring to maintain the IP integrity of the installation.
Raxton Reducers are marked with the applicable approval number and size.
Independently tested to IP68.

 INSULATED ADAPTORS

Raxton Insulated Adaptors provide a means to isolate the earth of the supply cable from
the load equipment thus reducing the risk of damage to electronic equipment within the
enclosure in the event of a short circuit to ground through the enclosure. Insulated
Type DB
Adaptors also reduce the problems of electrical noise on the armour affecting the clean
earth required by some sensitive instruments. Single point grounding can reduce the
circulating current that can cause heating of high capacity cables.
Cable gland and cable can still be earthed externally with the use of an earth tag fitted
between the cable gland and the Insulated Adaptor.
Raxton Insulated Adaptors are marked with the appropriate approval number and size.

 BREATHER DRAINS

Electrical enclosures used outdoors with IP protection to prevent water and dust ingress
Type CT
can be subject to moisture build up inside the enclosure, which can damage or affect
performance of the electrical equipment. Moisture build up can be caused by several
conditions:
! Major changes in ambient temperatures
! Major changes in ambient pressures
! Heat generated by electrical equipment inside the enclosure
Installed at the bottom of the enclosure, the primary function is to effectively drain any
water present within the enclosure, whilst allowing air in the enclosure to breath with the
surrounding atmosphere, minimizing moisture build up within the enclosure.
The Type CV - Ex e Increased Safety model utilizes an internal dust filter, whilst the Type
Type CV CT – Ex d Flameproof model incorporates a metallic dust seal manufactured from
sintered copper/bronze alloy to also prevent a flame path in the event of an explosion
within the enclosure.

BREATHER DRAINS

The Raxton Exde (Type CT) and Exe Breather/Drain Plugs (Type CV) effectively drain
Type CT moisture from an enclosure and allow air from the enclosure to vent into the surrounding
atmosphere thereby minimising moisture build up.
The Plug is fastened to the lowest point of the enclosure by means of a spanner or allen
key. The 'O' ring will seal against the enclosure face enhancing the I.P. rating of the Plug.
The Drain Plug can be supplied with either a serrated washer and locknut allowing the
condensation to drain whilst ensuring the Plug is shakeproof or with a castellated locknut.
The Exde (Type CT) Breather/Drain Plug is an assembled item and must not be taken apart
at any stage of installation. The Exde plug has an impact resistance of 20 Nm and can
operate at temperatures between -50ºC to +230ºC.
Raxton Drain Plugs are marked with the appropriate approval number and size. Tested to
IP66.

 BARRIER STOPPER BOXES FOR CABLE GLANDS & RIGID CONDUIT

Raxton Compound Stopper Box is designed to seal conductors at the entry to the
enclosure via conduit or to enable an existing compression gland to be converted to a
barrier gland. This is achieved by forming a barrier between the individual insulated
conductors within the cable to prevent an explosion within the enclosure. The
Compound Stopper Box allows compound to be packed around individual insulated
conductors. Assembly of the component compresses the packing material and
distributes the compound evenly to effect a barrier at point of entry into the enclosure.
The Compound Stopper Box is supplied with compound in a pack, complete with making
off instructions and gloves.
Raxton Compound Stopper Box is marked with the appropriate approval number and size.

EARTHING LOCKNUTS & EARTH TAGS

NEW P Earthing Locknuts

RO CT

RO CT

Raxton Earthing Locknuts offer an alternative to the standard Earth Tag when terminating a
DU

DU

NEW P metallic cable gland into a thin wall steel enclosure. The Earthing Locknut design includes
a number of cutting teeth formed on one surface of the nut. When tightened, these teeth
cut into the enclosure wall, preventing the nut from turning and enabling the gland to be
tightened to the nut from the outside with only one tool. This allows all connections of the
gland to be made within the enclosure, away from the corrosive or flammable atmosphere
and away from possible mechanical damage, and results in a neater appearance. The nut
may also be fitted with the plain side facing the enclosure where this is preferred.

The Raxton Barrier Stopper Box for flexible conduit is designed to provide a flameproof
connection for liquid tight and braided flexible conduit in hazardous area applications. This
is achieved by forming a barrier between the individual insulated conductors of a cable
inside the conduit that are to be terminated within an enclosure.
NEW P
The barrier is formed by using a setting compound packed around individual insulated

HAZARDOUS AREAS

GROUPING OF ELECTRICAL APPARATUS FOR POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

GROUP I: ELECTRICAL APPARATUS FOR MINING, TYPIFIED BY THE GAS METHANE (FIREDAMP)
GROUP II: ELECTRICAL APPARATUS FOR SURFACE INDUSTRY
Group II may be further divided into three gas groups:
IIA - Representative Gas Propane
IIB - Representative Gas Ethylene
IIC - Representative Gas Hydrogen
Gas Group IIC covers the most hazardous gases and as such, apparatus marked IIC may be used in IIA and IIB applications.

CLASSIFICATIONS
GAS DUST

ZONE 0 20 Zone in which an explosive atmosphere is constantly present, or present for long periods. (Rough guide: hazard present for more than 1000 hours/year).

ZONE 1 21 Zone in which an explosive atmosphere is likely to occur in normal operation. (Rough guide: hazard present between 10 & 1000 hours/year).

ZONE 2 22 Zone in which an explosive atmosphere is not likely to occur in normal operation and if it occurs it will exist only for a short time. (Rough guide: hazard present for less
than 10 hours/year).
Guidance in the classification of hazardous areas is given in BS EN 60079-10-1:2009, IEC79-10.

Explosion protected electrical apparatus must be designed and tested to ensure that the maximum surface MAXIMUM SURFACE
temperature of any part(s) of the products are below the ignition temperature of the explosive atmosphere TEMPERATURE CLASS TEMPERATURE
concerned. Group II electrical apparatus is divided into temperature classes according to the maximum (DEGREES CELSIUS)
permissible surface temperature of the apparatus. The preferable classification of temperatures is given in the T1 450
table on the right. T2 300
Unless otherwise specified the maximum ambient temperature is taken to be 400ºC. T3 200
