Watertight Pendant*:
kPA-75WT, kPA-100WT (Continued)
Installation with Conductor Cordgrip:
1. Apply a corrosion-inhibiting grease, such as petroleum or soap-thickened mineral oils, in 3 lines, spaced approximately
120 degrees apart perpendicular to the threads on the conduit stem. Thread the pendant hood onto the 3/4 inch or
1 inch conduit stem.
2. Tighten the set screw located on the top side of the hood to a torque of 1.9 Nm min. 2.6 Nm max.
3. Remove the watertight 3-conductor cordgrip, which comes installed in the mounting hood from the factory.
4. Feed the supply wires through the conduit entry in the mounting hood, then individually thread each wire into the smaller holes in
the cordgrip. NOTE: Each of the three (3) holes need to be occupied by a conductor for the unit to be considered watertight.
5. Thread the cordgrip with the conductors installed into the NPT entry on the underside of the hood until wrench tight.
6. Thread the sealing nut onto the multi-hole gland until hand tight, ensuring a firm grip and seal on the conductors.
