Quick Summary

EABX36 ATEX conduit outlet box from Eaton Crouse-Hinds delivers rugged, safe enclosure for wiring in hazardous locations. Design teams wrestle with achieving explosion protection while not compromising access, install speed, or ongoing maintenance. This Condulet meets NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX, NEMA 4, and IP66 classifications, delivering reliable performance in volatile environments. Combined with a 1 in trade size and a 3 in cover opening, it speeds installation and reduces lifecycle costs for harsh-duty projects. The Feraloy iron alloy construction resists impact and corrosion, while the X-shaped configuration optimizes mounting versatility. In practice, teams report faster conduit entries, fewer reworks, and better long-term protection against dust, water, and chemical exposure. This makes EABX36 a reliable choice for oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and other hazardous locations.
