Product Information

Full details

The Wiska SPRINT ESVG VentGLAND M16 (10104412) is designed for electrical installers and engineers who require both secure cable management and active pressure equalization in harsh environments. By combining a standard cable gland with a ventilation membrane, it prevents condensation buildup inside enclosures while maintaining high ingress protection; however, users should ensure the air flow requirements of their specific enclosure do not exceed the membrane's capacity.

FAQs

Can I replace a standard M16 gland with this VentGLAND?

Yes, the SPRINT ESVG VentGLAND is designed to have identical clamping ranges and dimensions to standard SPRINT glands.

Does this gland work with EMC cables?

Yes, it is compatible with EMC-inserts, allowing for protection against electromagnetic interference while maintaining pressure equalization.

What is the IP rating of this gland?

It provides high-level water protection, typically achieving IP68, though installation quality is critical for this performance.

Does the ventilation membrane affect the gland's strength?

No, the structural integrity of the gland is maintained as part of the modular SPRINT system.

What maintenance does the membrane require?

The membrane should be kept clean and clear of contaminants like thick paint, dust, or oil, which could block the air-permeable surface.

Troubleshooting

Condensation appearing inside the enclosure

Check the exterior membrane for blockages such as paint or heavy debris. Ensure the gland is not over-tightened to a point where the membrane housing is distorted.

Water ingress detected

Verify that the cable diameter is within the specified clamping range for the M16 insert and ensure the cap nut is tightened to the recommended torque.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents condensation-related failures in sealed enclosures
  • Easy to integrate into existing SPRINT system setups
  • Maintains high water protection (IP68)
  • Supports EMC shielding for sensitive applications

Cons

  • Specific air flow limitations compared to dedicated venting plugs
  • Requires proper tightening to ensure both seal and venting function
  • Higher initial cost than standard non-venting glands

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, insert the M16 body into the enclosure panel and secure it with the locknut. Ensure the thread is aligned correctly to prevent cross-threading. When feeding the cable through, tighten the cap nut until the sealing insert firmly grips the cable jacket, ensuring the IP68 seal is achieved. For care, inspect the exterior membrane periodically to ensure it remains free of thick paint, grease, or heavy dust accumulation, as these can block the microscopic pores required for air exchange. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents on the ventilation membrane surface.
