Overview

The ABB HLT050 is a specialized aluminum liquidtight fitting designed for the secure termination of tray cable. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this fitting is engineered to provide a reliable and protected connection in industrial environments. Its N.P.T. hub size is 1/2 inch, ensuring compatibility with standard conduit systems. The fitting is specifically designed to accommodate tray cable with a range over jacket diameter from 0.3 to 0.4 inches, offering a precise fit that maintains the integrity of the cable's protective jacket. This ensures that the cable remains sealed against liquid ingress, dust, and other environmental contaminants, which is critical for maintaining operational reliability and safety in harsh industrial settings. The aluminum construction offers inherent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern. The liquidtight design is essential for preventing the intrusion of liquids into electrical enclosures and junction boxes, thereby safeguarding sensitive equipment and preventing potential electrical hazards. This fitting is an integral part of a robust cable management system, ensuring that tray cables are properly terminated and protected at points of entry into enclosures or equipment.

How to Install HLT Series Fitting with Liquid Sealant for TC Tray Cable in LTFMC

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing an HLT series fitting for Type TC Tray Cables enclosed in a Liquid Tight Flexible Metal Conduit (LTFMC), utilizing SC4-KIT-1 liquid sealant for hazardous locations.

Estimated time: 1h 30m

Tools needed:

Wire strippers, Wrench, Support fixture

Supplies needed:

HLT Series Fitting, Type TC Tray Cable, Liquid Tight Flexible Metal Conduit, SC4-KIT-1 Liquid Sealant, Fiber damming material, Sealing tape

  1. De-energize Circuits and Prepare Cable

    CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Before installing or maintaining, verify that all circuits are de-energized. Remove the jacket from the end of the Type TC Tray Cable to expose the working length of conductors. Remove all cable fillers and clean individual conductor insulation. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation. Pack the supplied fiber damming material tightly into all voids between conductors and between conductors and the cable jacket. Where applicable, spread the strands of uninsulated grounding conductors.

  2. Assemble Connector Components onto Cable and Conduit

    Disassemble the HLT series connector. Slide the gland nut and sealing ring onto the Liquid Tight Flexible Metal Conduit (LTFMC). Slide the ground cone onto the cable and thread it into the LTFMC until tight. Apply the supplied sealing tape over the cable jacket approximately 1/2 inch from the end. Build the tape diameter slightly larger than the inside diameter of the ground cone. Push the cable back into the ground cone with a slight twist until only half the width of the tape is exposed.

  3. Insert Cable into Insert and Apply Liquid Sealant

    Insert the cable into the insert until the grounding cone is fully seated. Secure the conduit and insert assembly in a vertical position, adequately supporting the conduit to prevent it from sliding out of the insert. Mix the SC4-KIT-1 liquid sealing compound according to its package instructions. Dispense the compound into the end of the insert until the level stabilizes and fills to the top. Wait approximately 1 hour for the compound to solidify.

  4. Mount Body and Finalize Assembly

    Mount the body of the HLT series fitting in the desired location. Place the encapsulated insert into the body and secure it by tightening the gland nut until it bottoms on the insert, ensuring metal-to-metal contact.
