FAQs
Installation begins with selecting the single-gang, single-pole EDS21093 G42 SA and preparing the panel enclosure for a 3/4 inch hub. Connect power and control wiring to the switch terminals, ensuring proper grounding and compliance with NEC/CEC guidelines for Class I and II locations. The copper-free aluminum enclosure resistance supports durable mounting in harsh environments. Finally, verify the integrated heater is set per ambient conditions to prevent condensation and ensure reliable operation during startup and shutdown cycles.
Key specs include a 1 hp rating, 16A heater current, and a 3/4" hub with a single-pole, single-gang configuration. The enclosure is copper-free aluminum, offering corrosion resistance. The unit is designed for hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings 3, 7, and 9, making it suitable for environments with flammable vapors or dust and demanding service conditions.
Yes. The product supports hazardous classifications including Class I, Division 1; Class II, Division 1/2; and Class III as part of NEC hazardous area ratings. It is designed to withstand hazardous-location conditions while providing reliable motor control in demanding environments such as chemical processing, mining, and oil and gas facilities.
The unit is certified under NEC/CEC standards for hazardous locations and features NEMA ratings 3/7/9, ensuring protection against dust, water, and corrosive elements. Certification can be cross-referenced with UL listings for auxiliary devices intended for use in hazardous locations, and it is compatible with the EDS accessory family to maintain compliance during upgrades or expansions.
The copper-free aluminum enclosure resists corrosion, lowering ongoing maintenance in harsh environments. Built-in 16A heater helps prevent condensation-related faults, reducing unexpected downtime. Its compact, plug-and-play form factor simplifies replacement or retrofits in existing panels, shortening maintenance windows and delivering measurable uptime improvements and lower total cost of ownership for hazardous-location motor control.
