Overview

The ABB Installation Products BEM-M251 EMC Cable Gland is a nickel-plated brass gland designed for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) applications. It features an M25 metric thread with an 8mm thread length, compatible with standard M25 gland entries in industrial enclosures and junction boxes. The gland accommodates cable outer diameters from 10 to 18mm and a shielding range of 7 to 14mm, ensuring proper grounding and interference suppression for sensitive electronic systems. The design ensures secure cable retention while maintaining IP68 ingress protection when installed with compatible sealing components. Key applications include industrial automation, power distribution, and data acquisition systems where electromagnetic shielding is critical. Its clamping range of 10-18mm for cables and 7-14mm for shielding accommodates braided or foil shielding. The nickel-plated brass material offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard brass, suitable for outdoor or chemically aggressive environments. Installation requires standard tools, with a design that minimizes cable damage during clamping. Nominal dimensions: A=7.0mm, B=35.5mm, C=32.0mm, W1=30.0mm, W2=30.0mm. For IP68 protection, use compatible sealing washers and follow ABB’s installation guidelines.
