Overview

The ABB STX200-474S Star Teck XP hazardous location steel jacketed cable fitting is engineered for critical applications in environments where safety and reliability are paramount. Developed in collaboration with engineers from the petrochemical, oil and gas industries, this fitting sets a new standard for ease of installation in hazardous locations. Its design features an integral sealing chamber that is exceptionally easy to fill, simplifying the sealing process and reducing potential for error. The disconnectable nature of the fitting requires minimal cable preparation, significantly streamlining the installation workflow and saving valuable labor time. This model, SKU STX200-474S, is designed for a 2-inch hub size and accommodates a range over jacket from 2.100 to 2.375 inches. The robust steel jacket construction provides durable protection for the cable within hazardous environments. Complementing the fitting, a specialized line of liquid and putty sealants was developed concurrently, eliminating the historical reliance on cement sealants. This advancement further enhances installation efficiency and ensures a secure, reliable seal. The Star Teck XP fitting is a testament to innovation in hazardous location cable management, prioritizing both safety and operational efficiency for demanding industrial sectors.

How to Install the STX200-474S Cable Fitting

Instructions for installing the STX200-474S Star Teck™ cable fitting with integral seal.

Estimated time: 30m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Screwdriver

Supplies needed:

Sealing compound (SC4-KIT-1 or SC65), Fiber damming material (if using SC4-KIT-1)

  1. Prepare the cable

    Determine the required working length of the conductors. Remove a portion of the outer jacket to expose the armor. Cut the armor using a hacksaw, being careful not to nick the conductor insulation. Trim the outer jacket to the strip length specified in the product table.

  2. Feed cable through gland nut

    Feed the cable through the gland nut opening and push until the cable armor contacts the end stop.

  3. Tighten gland nut

    Tighten the gland nut until an appropriate seal is obtained or to the maximum torque specified in the table. Ensure the bushing and collar ring seal evenly around the cable's outer jacket and are flush with the gland nut face. Keep the cable centered for an optimal seal.

  4. Disassemble fitting components

    Loosen the union to disassemble the hub from the body sub-assembly. Unscrew the sealing chamber from the body sub-assembly.

  5. Prepare conductors

    Trim the inner jacket to a length of 1/8"-3/8" to expose the conductor bundle. For shielded data cables, remove the outer shield, taking care not to damage inner shields, and remove filler materials without disturbing inner shields.

  6. Apply sealing compound

    If using liquid sealing compound (SC4-KIT-1), pack fiber damming material into voids between conductors and body, and spread grounding conductor strands if applicable. Mix the compound according to package instructions and fill the sealing chamber. For fittings STX300-478 and larger, fill halfway, wait 2 hours, then fill to the top. If using putty-type sealing compound (SC65), mix the two parts until uniform. Apply a portion between insulated conductors and around uninsulated grounding conductor strands. Build up compound to fill the sealing chamber.

  7. Reassemble and seal

    Screw the sealing chamber back onto the body sub-assembly until fully seated. Slide the sealing chamber onto the cable and compound. Screw the sealing chamber to the body sub-assembly until fully seated. Remove any excess compound with a damp cloth. For putty compound, fill the throat area of the sealing chamber and pack tightly around conductors. Allow compound to set for approximately one hour.

  8. Mount hub

    Mount the hub in the desired location. Once the sealing compound is solidified, place the encapsulated assembly into the hub and secure by tightening the union until metal-to-metal contact is achieved.
