years of industry experience and working closely with their

BICON Cable Glands to terminate
all cable types on the market. As the world's number one
manufacturer of cables, Prysmian Group's
BICON Cable Glands are designed
and manufactured utilising all the knowledge of critical
requirements to safely terminate cables in all types of
installations.
BICON Cable Glands are
mechanical cable entry devices that attach and secure the end of
a cable to an enclosure or directly into equipment providing for
mechanical support, earth continuity and protection against the
ingress of dust and moisture. Additionally, hazardous areas they
prevent the migration of gases and control and contain any
potential explosions.
The ranges of BICON Cable glands have been
designed and tested with The Prysmian Group cable products. They
are the recommended and preferred method of installation for all
Prysmian and Draka Cables.
When installing fire resistant and Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH
/ LSOH) cables it is important that the accessories used meet
the same performance requirements as the cable. Thus, the
accessory does not impact on the system performance as a whole
in the event of a fire. As the world market leader in both of
these types of cable it is no surprise that the Prysmian Group
is able to offer specific glanding solutions.
BICON LSOH/LSZH Industrial Gland Kits
have been granted
LUL
approvals. BICON Cable Glands are
manufactured in either aluminium, brass or nylon as standard. In
the event that the installation requires electroless nickel
plated brass these can be supplied.
BICON Cable Glands have been
used on a vast number of major electrical engineering projects
including: Terminal 5 Heathrow, oil platforms in the North Sea,
and power stations in the UK & Europe.
