Due to the stricter test requirements of the EN60079-0:2009, it was nearly impossible to find an Ex-polyamide cable gland that fully complies with the current standard (now EN60079-0:2012 + A11:2013). RST closed this gap with the Euro-Top X3 HI. In addition to compliance with standards, the Euro-Top X3 HI impresses with an increased impact resistance of 7 joules and a potential temperature range of up to -60°C. At the turn of the year 2019/2020, the Euro-Top X3HI will be replaced by the visually slightly modified generation Euro-Top X4HI.
