Eaton Specification Sheet - EFS2184 S153
Explosionproof construction using a Feraloy iron alloy body delivers enhanced safety in dusty, flammable environments, directly supporting regulatory compliance and reducing risk in oil and gas, chemical processing, and mining applications. The 600 Vac rating with a single pushbutton simplifies motor-control circuits and minimizes component count, yielding faster commissioning and reduced spare-parts inventory for hazardous-location facilities. The single-gang enclosure with a 3/4" hub offers installation flexibility and a compact footprint, enabling easier panel integration and neater wiring layouts in space-constrained control panels. A built-in lockout provision supports safe maintenance, while NEC/CEC compliance and UL listings streamline procurement and inspection cycles for highly regulated environments. Compatibility with the EFS family enhances lifecycle support and spare-part availability across multiple projects, reducing total cost of ownership across the plant floor. This combination of rugged construction, smart design, and proven performance translates to measurable productivity gains, safer operations, and improved asset uptime in harsh industrial settings.
