Quick Summary

EDS2130 GB snap switch control station provides rugged, reliable control for hazardous-location equipment in industrial facilities. It consolidates switching functions in a single-gang, dead-end enclosure, reducing wiring complexity and maintenance points. Operators often struggle with safe, code-compliant enclosures in Class I Division 1 environments; this unit is designed to meet NEC/CEC requirements while withstanding harsh conditions. With a 3/4" hub and 120-277V operation, it supports common industrial voltages without adapters. The feraloy iron alloy body and sealed construction resist corrosive atmospheres and impact. In practice, specifying this device improves system reliability, minimizes downtime, and supports safer, faster installation for hazardous-area control circuits. It also streamlines procurement and spare-part planning for electrical protection and circuit-control tasks.

FAQs

For Class I Division 1 installations, ensure enclosure mounting in a compliant area, verify conduit entries use 3/4" hubs, and route conductors to the 120-277 VAC circuit while observing derating and enclosure gasket integrity. The unit’s feraloy iron alloy construction supports robust service life in ignition-prone atmospheres, reducing the frequency of field modifications and rework while meeting NEC/CEC requirements.
The EDS2130 GB is designed for Class I Division 1, Group B environments and aligns with NEC/CEC standards for hazardous locations. Its NEMA ratings 7, 3, 9 indicate suitability for tough industrial conditions, including wet, oily, and dusty environments. This combination provides regulatory confidence, safer operation, and streamlined procurement for hazardous-area control circuits.
Yes. The enclosure features a single 3/4" hub designed for straightforward conduit entry, minimizing field modifications. It supports a 1-device, single-gang footprint with a three-pole, 3-way switch inside, enabling compact and reliable hazardous-location control for limited-space installations.
Key specs include 20A amperage and a 120-277 VAC voltage rating, enabling most standard control circuits without additional transformers. This simplifies panel design, reduces component count, and improves energy efficiency. The 3/4" hub and single-gang form factor support tight layouts in hazardous environments while maintaining safe operation standards.
Plan for periodic inspection of gasket integrity and enclosure seals to maintain ingress protection in harsh environments. The feraloy iron alloy body offers durable protection against corrosion and impact, reducing downtime for replacements. Regular verification of wiring termination, switch function, and conformity with NEC/CEC updates ensures long-term compliance and reliability in hazardous locations.
