Abstract
A cable transit device, or cable penetration device, includes a tubular sleeve (1) that has means (11) at one end for fastening the device to a wall opening, and that has at its other end a thread (14) which interacts with a thread (53) on a nut (5). The nut includes a support shoulder (52) and the device includes a rubber sleeve which is located in the tubular sleeve (1) and has an outer diameter corresponding to the inner diameter of the tubular sleeve. The rubber sleeve is accommodated between the circular shoulder of the tubular sleeve and the support shoulder of the nut. The device also includes a plurality of module elements (4), each containing a cable accommodating channel (41) and each being divided to allow lateral access to the channel/channels. The modules (4) together fill-out the opening (31) of the rubber sleeve and have a shape that corresponds to the resultant outer contour of the mutually sealingly combined modules.
