Eaton Specification Sheet - EDSCM32
Copper-free aluminum housing reduces weight while delivering robust corrosion resistance, improving field performance and ease of handling in demanding environments. Business impact: lower installation time, easier transport, and longer service life under harsh conditions. Application: offshore platforms, chemical plants, and mining facilities where exposure to corrosives and moisture is common. The through-feed design with two 1 in hubs and two 1-1/4 in hubs enables flexible conduit routing and wiring layouts, reducing field modification and enabling faster panel wiring. Business impact: improved wiring accuracy and reduced rework. Application: multi‑gang control stations with tight spaces and complex routing. The two‑gang tandem configuration supports two independent circuits in a compact footprint, optimizing enclosure utilization and minimizing cabinet real estate. Business impact: space savings and lower enclosure count per project. Application: plant upgrades and retrofits needing compact control bodies. Compatibility with DSD device cover sub-assemblies provides standardized sub‑assemblies for faster assembly and service. Business impact: accelerated commissioning and simplified maintenance. Application: systems leveraging Eaton/Crouse-Hinds standard accessories and spare parts. Certifications and ratings including NEC/CEC, UL hazardous locations, and NEMA 3/7/9 ensure compliance across multiple jurisdictions. Business impact: regulatory peace of mind and reduced risk during audits. Application: global operations with mixed compliance requirements. Industry experience indicates this modular approach reduces lifecycle costs through standardized parts, fewer spare SKUs, and easier upgrades, aligning with cost‑of‑ownership targets for large chemical, oil & gas, and marine projects.

FAQs
Yes. The EDSCM32 is designed as a through-feed, two‑gang modular device body with copper‑free aluminum construction and compatible hubs (two 1 in and two 1-1/4 in). This enables seamless wiring runs, minimized unnecessary field modifications, and straightforward integration with existing DSD device cover sub‑assemblies, making it ideal for hazardous-area control panels.
Key specifications include its copper‑free aluminum housing, two‑gang tandem layout, 1 in trade size hubs, and two 1‑inch plus two 1‑1/4 inch hubs for conduit routing. It meets NEC/CEC standards and UL hazardous‑location certifications, with NEMA ratings 3, 7, and 9, ensuring reliable operation in Class I/II/III environments and adverse conditions.
The EDSCM32 excels in oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and marine industries where explosion‑proof, durable control enclosures are essential. Its modular, two‑gang design supports multi‑circuit control stations, space‑efficient installations, and compatibility with DSD covers, making it suitable for retrofit projects and new builds in harsh environments.
The device body is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards, offers UL hazardous locations certifications, and carries NEMA ratings of 3, 7, and 9. It is intended for Hazardous/Classified Locations and supports installation in environments requiring robust protective enclosures for control equipment.
Using the EDSCM32 reduces commissioning time due to standardized accessories and through-feed wiring, lowers spare parts complexity with a common accessory ecosystem, and minimizes lifecycle costs through durable aluminum construction and proven hazardous‑location compliance. The result is faster payback through improved reliability, easier upgrades, and fewer field reworks.
