Quick Summary

The Eaton Crouse-Hinds ECP enclosure is a rugged, explosionproof housing designed for hazardous locations in process and power facilities. This enclosure helps prevent downtime from dust ingress, moisture, and corrosive atmospheres that threaten control circuits and power distribution. It supports NEC/CEC hazardous-location requirements and offers protection suitable for Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; Class III environments, with compatible NEMA ratings 3, 3R, 4, 7, and 9. Built from copper-free aluminum, it combines lightweight strength with corrosion resistance. Bolt-on mounting feet simplify surface or equipment-frame installation and enable rapid retrofits, minimizing commissioning time while maintaining lockout-tagout readiness and long-term maintenance efficiency. With a compact 4x6x4 inch footprint and rounded cover, it fits tight spaces on machinery or in control cabinets. Engineers value the balance of protection, weight, and serviceability when planning upgrades or expansions.
