A device and method of positioning a component on a cable. The method includes: moving a collet into position on the component; engaging the component with the collet; moving the collet with the component positioned thereon into alignment with an end of the cable; securing the collet to the end of the cable; moving the component from the collet to the cable; and removing the collet from the end of the cable.

A dispenser apparatus (10) for dispensing curable liquid material into a space in a cable gland is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a housing (12) for separately storing of components of a curable liquid material and provided with a respective first outlet (14) for each component. A mixing chamber (16) mixes the components to cause curing of the curable liquid material and has an inlet (18) for receiving the components from the first outlets, and a second outlet (20) for the mixed components. A plunger (22) urges the components out of storage chambers of the housing via the first outlets and into the mixing chamber via the inlet. The dispenser apparatus is adapted to be located in a body of a cable gland such that the mixed components are dispensable from, the second outlet into a space defined by the body and a cable extending through the body.

A cable gland for securing a cable to a box comprises a tightening element configured to surround the cable, the tightening element having at least two connecting ends mutually approachable to tighten the tightening element on the cable, and a gland body extending along an axial direction between a first end and a second end, the gland body defining a passing through channel extending along the axial direction between the first end and the second end and configured to receive the cable passing through the first and second ends, the gland body surrounding at least partially the tightening element. The cable gland comprises a first locking arrangement configured to lock along the axial direction the gland body relative to the tightening element.

A wire harness is provided with a cable including wires coated with a sheath, a rubber stopper that covers an end of the sheath together with a portion in a longitudinal direction of the wires, and a cover made of a harder material than the rubber stopper and accommodating the rubber stopper. The rubber stopper integrally has a sheath sealing portion having an inner peripheral surface that comes into contact with an outer peripheral surface of the sheath, and a wire sealing portion including plural insertion holes to which the wires are inserted. The cover integrally has a sheath holding portion that crimps and holds an uncovered portion of the sheath that is not covered by the rubber stopper, and a rubber stopper holding portion that crimps and holds the rubber stopper.

The present disclosure relates to a protection device for a component of a releasable plug-in connection between a plug and a socket, which is arranged on or in a housing of an electronics unit of a field device. The protection device includes a first half shell and a second half shell at least partially complementary to the first half shell, wherein the two half shells are embodied as to define an internal volume when assembled and at least partially surround at least the plug, at least a first passageway for passage of the plug, or the plug and a cable secured to the plug, into the internal volume of the protection device, at least one securement unit for releasably securing the protection device to the housing, and at least one assembling unit for releasably assembling the two half shells with one another.

A cable gland assembly includes a gland nut defining a longitudinal axis. The gland nut includes an interior wall defining a gland nut opening and the interior wall includes a stop. A bushing is disposed within the gland nut opening proximate the stop. The bushing defines a bushing opening configured to receive a cable therein. A sleeve is moveably disposed within the gland nut opening adjacent the bushing. The cable gland assembly also includes a body defining a body opening configured to receive at least a portion of the cable therein. The body is configured to couple to the gland nut, and upon tightening of the gland nut to the body, the gland nut moves along the longitudinal axis compressing the bushing between the gland nut and the sleeve and around the cable. When the sleeve engages with the stop, further compression of the bushing is restricted.
