1、Designation: F 1837M 97 (Reapproved 2007)An American National StandardStandard Specification forHeat-Shrink Cable Entry Seals (Metric)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1837M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case

2、of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the general requirements forheat-shrink cable entry seals. Cable e

3、ntry seals are intended formaking electrical cable penetrations into connection boxes,bulkheads, or other enclosures. These devices are suitable forboth thin wall enclosures up to 5 mm (316 in.) thick andthick-wall enclosures of 5 mm to 19 mm (316 in. to34 in.) thick.1.2 Cable entry seals shall have

4、 factory-applied adhesivethat provides the seal to wire and cable jackets.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its

5、use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to its use.2.
