ATEX / EX Connectors (Glenair ITS-Ex): Explosion Proof Hazardous Zone Connectors – UL Certified in North America

IECEx / ATEX Qualified, UL Certified Hazardous Zone Connectors for Use in Explosive Environments

Series 927-072

Glenair is a qualified manufacturer of ATEX Approved (European Union), IECEx Approved (International Markets) and UL Certified (North America) connectors for potential explosive zone use -- all built IAW IECEx / ATEX and UL standards. The connectors may be used in application areas where flammable gases and vapors are present as a normal condition of operation (group IIC) and with temperature classes T6 and T5, zones 1 and 2; and for applications where potentially flammable dust is present as a normal condition of operation (group IIIC) and with temperature classes T80°C and T95°C in zone 21 and 22. The connector series design is optimized for fast and easy crimp-contact wire termination with ample wiring space in the cable housing and accessory hardware. Glenair Series ITS-Ex complies with the following standards:
