Feature → Business Impact → Application: The EFSC1190 uses a Feraloy iron alloy enclosure to withstand harsh environments, delivering superior durability and longevity in hazardous locations. This reduces maintenance frequency and spare parts costs while meeting stringent safety standards; ideal for continuous operation in chemical plants and refineries. Feature → Through-feed design with two 1/2" hubs enables simple wiring and clean cable management, cutting installation time by hours and minimizing wiring errors during energization; perfect for retrofit projects or new builds in automated lines. Feature → Two-circuit universal capability with 2 devices and 2 pushbuttons supports common control schemes without needing separate interlocks, improving control reliability in conveyor systems and batch processing. Feature → 600 Vac voltage rating and NEC/CEC compliance ensure safe switching of motor loads and control circuits, reducing risk of arcing and improving regulatory adherence; suitable for heavy machinery and hazardous area installs. Feature → NEMA 3, 7, 9 compatibility provides protection against dust, water, and explosive atmospheres, enabling outdoor or indoor installations in mining and offshore environments without enclosure upgrades. Feature → Compatibility with EDS/EFS family devices and installation sheets (IF 328/IF 899) simplifies procurement and field servicing, reducing downtime and training needs for maintenance teams.

FAQs

EFSC1190 is designed for seamless integration with the Crouse-Hinds EFS family and compatible single- and two-gang device bodies. Installation guidance references IF 328 and IF 899 sheets, facilitating correct mounting, through-feed wiring, and hub connections. This reduces field modification needs and ensures correct clearance and protection in hazardous locations.
EFSC1190 carries NEC/CEC certification for Hazardous/Classified Locations with Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings, along with NEMA 3, 7, and 9 protection. This makes it suitable for oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and offshore environments where explosive atmospheres and severe conditions are present.
The EFSC1190 features a 600 VAC voltage rating, 2 pushbuttons, 2 devices, and a 1/2" trade size. Its two-circuit universal design supports common control schemes, making it suitable for switching motor loads and process equipment in hazardous areas while maintaining control reliability and safety.
Its explosionproof construction (Feraloy iron alloy enclosure), paired with 600 VAC capability and robust enclosure ratings (NEMA 3, 7, 9), delivers reliable operation in harsh environments. The two-pushbutton, through-feed design simplifies wiring and maintenance, reducing downtime and ensuring regulatory compliance in critical plant areas.
Follow Eaton installation guides (IF 328/IF 899) for single- and two-gang bodies and through-feed wiring with two 1/2" hubs. Regular inspections should verify hub seals, pushbutton actuation, and enclosure integrity. Use UL/Canadian certification references from the linked materials to ensure ongoing compliance and safe maintenance practices.
