FAQs
ECGJH16 uses male connections at both ends and a 1/2 inch trade size, enabling straightforward in-line connections with standard conduit fittings. When installing in Class I, Division 1 locations, follow the IF 1618 installation instructions, ensure proper sealing and grounding, and verify compatibility with your existing conduit system to maintain hazardous location ratings.
Key features include forged brass construction for corrosion resistance, a 6" flexible length for movement accommodation, and a 9.75" overall length for secure mounting. The dual-ended male connections simplify assembly, while the 1/2" trade size aligns with common fittings. Together, these aspects deliver vibration resistance, quick field installation, and long-term reliability in demanding applications.
Industries with stringent hazardous location requirements such as chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, and offshore energy gain from ECGJH16. Its NEC/CEC compliance and Class I Division 1 rating ensure safe operation in hazardous/classified locations, while its robust brass construction withstands demanding plant environments and reduces maintenance frequency.
ECGJH16 is documented for Hazardous/Classified Locations and NEC/CEC standards, with a Class I Division 1 rating. Canadian certification references and EU conformity documents are available, supporting global deployment. Users can reference UL Canada and EC documentation for regulatory assurance and project approvals.
By combining a reliable 1/2" trade size with a durable forged brass build and a 6" flexible length, ECGJH16 reduces installation time and field rework, lowers inventory needs, and minimizes leak or loosening risks in vibration-prone runs. The result is improved uptime, safer operations, and lower lifecycle costs for hazardous-area conduit systems.
