FAQs

ECGJH218 S516 installs with male connections at both ends, using a 3/4 inch trade size. Consider ensuring proper sealing, grounding continuity, and compatible conduit routing within Class I/II/III, Division 1 zones. Use appropriate gaskets and mounting hardware and verify IP66 integrity after assembly to maintain explosion-protected performance.
This coupling carries NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards, with IP66 ingress protection and NEC hazardous ratings for Class I, Division 1 (and Class II/III). These certifications support global installations and help meet regulatory and safety requirements for hazardous locations and classified locations.
Yes. The IP66 rating provides robust dust-tight and water ingress protection, and the stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance. This makes the ECGJH218 S516 appropriate for outdoors, marine facilities, and other demanding environments encountered in hazardous-area applications.
Documentation includes DoC and compliance declarations, installation sheets, and a specification datasheet. The catalog page and certification PDFs from Eaton provide access to mounting, sealing, and installation guidance, while UL/Canada approval pages support cross-border compliance assessments.
The coupling reduces field rework by offering a robust, pre-certified connection for hazardous locations, lowering installation time and downtime. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion, extending service life and reducing replacement costs in harsh environments.
