With churning out the base products, the petrochemical industry has been one of the eminent and crucial part especially for the consuming and manufacturing sector. The growth in the demand of petrochemical products has marked a strong paradigm shift towards UK with becoming one of the central production hub across the globe. Due to the Asia Petrochemical boom striking the global demand curve, some petrochemical companies have expanded and some had to shrink their business with the emergence of the major Oil and Natural Gas companies as the leading players worldwide. Also the Cable Gland Market is now becoming an indispensable part of the petrochemical industry, as the security of the industry asset and raw material needs to have stringent safety standards from the uncertain climatic reaction and hazardous environment. This article equips the reader with a brief guide to the use and importance of the industrial cable glands, cable cleats and copper terminals in petrochemical industry and the challenges faced by the cable gland manufacturer to come up with a perfect security solution for the Petrochem sharks.
With the drilling, mining, refining and gas processing becoming a substantial groundwork for the Coal, Gas, Mineral, Oil and Renewable industry, newer technologies, innovation and installation of the heavy duty asset needs a complete protection to avoid industrial fires, destruction due to hazardous situations and manage risk in inventory and production of flammable chemicals and petroleum products. By making technology up-gradation as a part of the investment, the Petochem producers also indulge into considering the security assignment as a crucial part of investment to achieve business success. Some of the major causes of destruction and dreadful accident in petrochemical operation are due to the leakage, lack of safety in the delicate area of liquefied hydrogen tank, warehouse and factory of ammonium nitrate, pipeline failure, boiler-over issue, vapor explosion, internal vessel disintegration and many other industrial havoc which is majorly found in compressor, pump and pipeline station, Gas plants, storage area of hydrocarbons, refineries and methanol plants.
In order to survive in the global market, the petrochemical sector has to have a fierce initiative to face significant severe security challenges of uncertain climatic reactions, feedstock and energy availability at large. For this, having a secured cable solution for the industry assets becomes a high concerned question for the petrochemical companies and bring a unique explosion proof cable gland solution to avoid heavy loss and destruction. With this, to get a properly equipped cable connector solution is at the Prima Facie stage of security steps for all the companies- be it small, medium or a giant petrochemical unit. Going deep into the use and importance of cable glands in Petrochem market will make your understanding more clear about the sensitivity of safety and security affair of electronic and other industry assets in petrochemical derivatives.
It is a crucial point of concern to make a perfect decision of materials to be used in the cable gland and cable accessories to get high resistance to the climate. The researcher has now come up with varied combinations of material meld that can have high resistance to natural calamities, explosions, heat, lightning strike, vibrations and extreme temperature with waterproof feature as an add on. A wide range of cable gland made of metal, Nylon or Nickel plate is now in demand for sensitive Petrochem projects. With this, the challenges buzzing in the mind of cable gland manufacturer and cable fitting producers is to bring a customization in the cable products and come up with a highly modified stuffing gland having multi feature and functionalities than the conventional ones.
The installation of the innovative cable insertion system and to have a flexible assembly process to offer fast delivery of the order has now become a challenge for the cable gland experts in current times. The fast growing technology has made the process of standard clamping of braid to the earthing of braid pretty smooth for cable connector manufacturing. This has made it possible to get a wide range of cable gland types in the market worldwide. Some of them are as under:
The cable gland with metric connecting thread are proved to be highly reliable and consistent product used to protect the electronic equipment in Petrochem operations. The industrial cable gland with tough Nylon material have now many applications in wet and dry industrial environment with an anti vibration lock functionality that has high durability as well. A Nickel plated Brass cable gland has easy assembly of cables with the help of double lamella insert used in machinery and instruments which require low maintenance operations.
Also the Copper terminals have a high applicability in the tough petrochemical mechanics. For the explosion proof cable gland, the Polyamide cable gland, brass cable connector, stainless steel cable gland has high resistance to explode and extreme temperature. There are many varieties of cable gland offered to the petrochemical companies with creative modification and customization with innovation coming up every other day. Lastly, apart from installing an effective cable gland system for the security of business asset and protecting the life of people working in the Petrochem units, a stringent risk based inspection system is fundamental to keep the business, people and environment safe from any kind of destruction.
