Sealing Gland Assembly Instructions
From Conax Technologies
 

 

Conax Buffalo sealing glands have lubricant applied at the factory. Substitution of factory-supplied lubricant will affect seal integrity. Lubrication prevents thread galling and minimizes friction between mating metallic components to maximize sealing gland performance when a catalog-specified torque is applied. Weld mount models should be relubricated after the body is welded in place. If the gland has been cleaned before assembly, it should also be relubricated prior to assembly.

Lubricant should be used any time a sealing gland assembly is opened for replacement or adjustment of the probe(s), wires or sealant. By re-lubricating the gland body threads and load bearing surface of the cap, proper load transfer (sealant compression) can be achieved.


Products & Services
Sealing glands are used to secure instrumentation wire and tubing, providing entry into pressurized, vacuum, or hazardous chambers and environments.
Cable glands are typically single-cable bulkhead modules that allow barrier penetration while providing sealing and strain relief. 
Compression packing seals or gland seals are deformable materials used to prevent or control the leakage of fluid between surfaces that move in relation to each other.
Exclusion seals are comprised of wipers, scrapers and V-ring seals.
Polysulphide adhesive resins and sealants provide a flexible and chemically resistant adhesive or sealant.
