FAQs
The DSD948 J11 LED is designed for hazardous and classified locations, offering a blue LED pilot light within a factory-sealed sub-assembly that fits standard DSD covers. It is suitable for control stations, machine enclosures, and panels in chemical plants, refineries, mining operations, and offshore environments where dust, moisture, or potentially explosive atmospheres are present.
The unit complies with NEC/CEC standards for hazardous areas and carries NEC hazardous ratings including Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, plus other Class II Division 2 and Class III designations. It also provides NEMA ratings 7, 9, and 3, ensuring enclosure integrity and safe operation in a wide range of hazardous-location installations.
Yes. The DSD948 J11 LED is specified to operate in Class II, Division 1 locations, among other hazardous-area ratings. This makes it suitable for metalworking, textile, and chemical processing environments where ignition sources must be minimized and equipment must meet stringent safety codes.
Maintenance is reduced thanks to LED life and a factory-sealed design that limits ingress of dust and moisture. Periodic visual inspections for moisture or discoloration are recommended, and components should be serviced with genuine Eaton parts if replacement is required. The durable Feraloy housing further minimizes corrosion-related maintenance in harsh environments.
The DSD948 J11 LED is designed to fit standard DSD covers and assemblies, featuring a blue LED indicator and a weight of 3.13 lb for stable mounting. It supports straightforward installation in existing hazardous-location control panels and is compatible with Eaton’s DSD series accessories for streamlined retrofits and upgrades.
