Eaton CPS532 201 Arktite Receptacle - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: CPS532 201
Quick Summary
CPS532 201 is a rugged receptacle assembly designed for hazardous-location wiring in industrial plants. In harsh environments, standard connectors can seal poorly, allow moisture ingress, and drive costly downtime. This Eaton Crouse-Hinds Arktite design addresses those challenges with a factory-sealed enclosure, copper-free aluminum body, and brass contacts that stand up to vibration and chemicals. It carries NEC/CEC compliance and UL listings for Class I, Division 1 and 2 locations, giving you confidence in safety and performance where it matters most. The unit supports 2-wire, 3-pole configurations at 60 Hz and voltages from 125-250 Vac up to 480 Vac, making it versatile for motor starters, pumps, and control circuits. For procurement teams, this translates to safer wiring and predictable lifecycle costs.

Eaton Specification Sheet - CPS532 201
Copper-free aluminum enclosure reduces weight while delivering robust corrosion resistance, making installation easier and extending service life in chemical, refinery, and outdoor environments. This translates to lower handling costs, less structural stress on panels, and improved uptime during rugged operation. Brass contact material provides stable conductivity through temperature cycles and vibration, ensuring reliable performance for motor controls and power feeds in demanding applications. The factory-sealed design minimizes dust, moisture, and chemical ingress, cutting maintenance intervals and reducing unplanned downtime in hazardous locations. With single-gang, 3/4" trade size and a dead-end back box, installation is straightforward in compact control panels and outdoor enclosures, saving time during field retrofits. The 7A/30A amperage rating and dual horsepower support (0.5 hp at 125-250 Vac and 1.5 hp at 480 Vac) cover common motor and load profiles, delivering flexibility for varied plant layouts. Certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations with NEC/CEC compliance and UL listings, CPS532 201 aligns with safety programs and procurement standards while remaining compatible with Arktite CPS, CPP, and CPR components for scalable safety interlocks and plug-in connections.

The 3/4" trade size supports standard conduit fittings, streamlining field retrofits in restricted spaces.
CPS532 201 offers a 7A/30A amperage rating and supports 0.50 hp at 125-250 Vac and 1.50 hp at 480 Vac. It is a 2-wire, three-pole configuration operating at 60 Hz with a 3/4" trade size, designed for 125-250 Vac or 480 Vac systems, making it suitable for a range of motor and control circuits in hazardous locations.
Yes. The receptacle is specified for Hazardous/Classified Locations with NEC hazardous ratings of Class I, Division 1 and 2, and it carries NEC/CEC standards compliance along with UL certifications. This ensures safe operation in locations requiring rigorous protection from ignition sources, moisture, and dust ingress.
CPS532 201 adheres to NEC/CEC standards and UL certifications for explosion-proof and hazardous-area equipment. It is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations (Class I, Division 1 & 2) and features a factory-sealed design to meet ingress protection expectations, aligning with regulatory and corporate safety programs.
Factory sealing minimizes dust, moisture, and chemical ingress, reducing cleaning frequency and the risk of corrosion or corrosion-assisted wear. This translates to lower maintenance costs, fewer unplanned outages, and longer service life for motors and control circuits installed in harsh industrial environments.
