Exe Exd Compound Stopper Box

Flameproof & Increased Safety Compound Stopper Box

Adaptors | Flameproof & Increased Safety

Raxton Exd/Exe Compound Stopper Box for hazardous areas 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 Exd/Exe Compound Stopper Box, manufactured by Raxton, 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 flameproof & increased safety 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.
