Eaton Crouse-Hinds DSD948 J6 Pilot Light Cover - NEC/CEC
Part Number: DSD948 J6
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds DSD948 J6 is a pilot light cover and device sub-assembly designed for hazardous-area control stations in industrial facilities. Field engineers often struggle with finding factory-sealed, code-compliant lighting components that install quickly without compromising safety. It supports NEC/CEC compliance, hazardous-area ratings, and NEMA configurations, helping projects meet codes on day one. In addition to robust protection, the amber pilot light sub-assembly reduces maintenance costs and accelerates installation in automation and process-control environments. With factory-sealed construction and a compact footprint, it integrates seamlessly with DSDX and EDS control stations. The unit's amber color aids quick status indication in hazardous environments, enhancing operator awareness during startup and maintenance windows. This makes it a reliable choice for oil, gas, mining, and chemical processing facilities.
