Exe Exd right angle Adaptors

Flameproof & Increased Safety Right Angle Adaptors

Raxton Exd/Exe hazardous area adaptors provide a means of electrical connection where protrusion space is limited whilst also, if necessary, converting the entry thread to that of a different type, size and/or gender of the female thread.

Right Angle Adaptors, manufactured by Raxton, can be supplied either with male or female thread entries, or alternatively with female to female thread entries and are marked with the applicable approval number and size.

Raxton flameproof (Exd) and increased safety (Ex e) adaptors are marked with the applicable approval number and size.

Certified adaptors should be used following the basic rules in line with good engineering practice:- no more than one conversion adaptor should be used at one time on any given cable entry.
