Arrangement for sealing an annular gap

Abstract

Abstract The seal is used for sealing the annular gap between the outside of the cable (9,10) and the inside wall of the tubular extension (7b) integral with the cable opening (7a) provided by the cable gland (7), to prevent ingress of moisture. It uses a one-piece hose (8) of an elastomer material which fits under tension around both the tubular extension and the inserted cable. Pref. the hose is rolled up before insertion of the cable, the end of the tubular extension fitting around the cable provided by a number of triangular tongues, deflected inwards by application of the hose, the latter having a thickened peripheral lip (8b) at its free end.
