Amber/green dual pilot lights provide immediate status visibility, reducing operator error and helping maintenance teams pinpoint faults faster. This translates into shorter downtime and safer startup of hazardous-area control panels, ideal for oil and gas, chemical processing, or marine applications where clear signaling is critical. Factory-sealed construction protects the illumination circuitry from moisture ingress, dust, and corrosive vapors, delivering dependable operation in tough environments. For plants with frequent washdowns or humid atmospheres, this design minimizes maintenance and replacement costs while maintaining signaling integrity. Feraloy iron alloy housing delivers enhanced mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, extending service life in aggressive environments and supporting long-term reliability. The unit’s dimensions and weight (5.1 in L, 4.2 in H, 6.5 in W, 3.3 lb) enable straightforward mounting on standard DSD covers and device sub-assemblies, reducing installation time and field adjustments. Certification to NEC/CEC standards and the NEMA ratings 3, 9, and 7 provide regulatory alignment, lowering compliance risk and enabling seamless integration into hazardous-location panels. Two pilot lights provide redundant indication paths, increasing visibility and reducing misinterpretation during high-noise operations and complex process signaling.

FAQs
The DSD947 J6 J3 is designed as a cover and device sub-assembly for Eaton Crouse-Hinds DSD signaling equipment. It fits standard DSD covers and device sub-assemblies used in hazardous-location control panels, with two amber/green pilot lights and factory-sealed construction suitable for Class I, II, and III environments. When planning upgrades, verify enclosure space, mounting patterns, and compatibility with existing DSD components to ensure a seamless retrofit.
DSD947 J6 J3 carries NEC/CEC certification for hazardous locations, including Class I and II divisions 1 and 2, and Class III. It also aligns with NEMA ratings 3, 9, and 7, providing protection against environmental factors and permitting installation in harsh process, chemical, and marine environments. Always confirm local codes and site-specific classifications before installation.
The sub-assembly measures 5.1 inches in length, 4.2 inches in height, and 6.5 inches in width, with a weight of 3.3 pounds. These dimensions support straightforward mounting on standard enclosure openings and fit within common panel cutouts for DSD series assemblies, helping minimize field modification and installation time.
Factory sealing protects the two amber/green pilot lights from moisture, dust and corrosive vapors, reducing ingress-related failures and extending service intervals. This leads to lower maintenance costs, fewer unplanned outages, and consistent signaling performance in harsh environments typical of oil, gas, chemical, and marine installations.
