FAQs

The DSD948 J6 SA is designed to fit standard DSD cover and device sub-assemblies. It integrates with EDSX, EDS, EFS, and DSDX control stations, simplifying wiring since it uses a single pilot light and factory-sealed enclosure. For best results, follow the IF 899 instructions for installation and ensure the mounting footprint aligns with existing frames.
It carries NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings, plus a NEMA rating of 3, 7, and 9. The assembly is UL-certified for use in Hazardous Locations and is designed to meet rigorous industry standards for industrial automation environments.
Yes. The copper-free aluminum construction combined with factory sealing provides corrosion resistance in humid, saline, and chemically aggressive environments typical of offshore platforms and chemical processing facilities. Its hazardous-location ratings and durable enclosure design make it well suited for harsh industrial applications.
Compliance is supported by NEC/CEC standards, UL listing for hazardous locations, and the integrated ratings Class I/Division 1 and 2, Class II/Division 1 and 2, Class III, plus NEMA 3/7/9. Official installation sheets (IF 899) and UL certification pages further verify conformance for regulated facilities.
The factory-sealed, copper-free aluminum design reduces ingress and corrosion-related failures, extending service life. With a single pilot light and an integrated sub-assembly, maintenance visits are faster and parts inventory is leaner, delivering lower lifecycle costs and improved uptime for critical production lines.
