Eaton EFSC2184 Pushbutton Control Station - Explosionproof
Part Number: EFSC2184
Quick Summary
EFSC2184 pushbutton control station is designed to deliver reliable explosion-proof control in hazardous locations. For engineers and maintenance teams, durable enclosures and safe wiring in tough environments are constant bottlenecks. This unit carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous location ratings (Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II/III) with a rugged NEMA 3/7/9 enclosure, giving you confidence in field performance. Through-feed wiring with two 3/4 in hubs and a single-gang form factor simplify installation, while 600 Vac operation supports high-voltage controls in one compact package. The combination of Feraloy iron alloy construction and precise pushbutton mechanisms translates to improved uptime and safer operation across industrial plants. Its compact, single-gang footprint reduces panel depth while maintaining rugged, explosionproof performance.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EFSC2184
Explosion-proof enclosure with two 3/4 in hubs and through-feed design delivers safe, compliant wiring in hazardous locations, enabling faster panel upgrades and reduced wiring errors in oil & gas and chemical processing environments. Feature to benefit: rugged housing and high voltage tolerance translate to fewer field failures and safer operator interaction; application: control stations in petrochemical facilities and refineries. Pushbutton, single-device, single-gang arrangement provides flexible control logic and quick replacement, minimizing downtime during maintenance and shutdowns. Compliance with NEC/CEC and hazardous-location ratings (Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II/III) paired with a NEMA 3/7/9 enclosure ensures regulatory conformance and weather/chemical protection in outdoor or wash-down areas. Through-feed wiring and hub configuration simplify installation, lowering labor costs and enabling easier tracing of circuits in complex motor-control schemes. Constructed from Feraloy iron alloy, the unit offers durability in temperature extremes and corrosive environments, reducing long-term service costs. With a 600 Vac voltage rating and a compact single-gang footprint, EFSC2184 supports high-power control in a smaller panel footprint, delivering installation efficiency and reliable operation in demanding industrial settings.

FAQs
Install EFSC2184 in approved explosion-proof enclosures and connect it using two 3/4" hubs for through-feed wiring. Follow NEC/CEC requirements for Class I, Division 1 or Division 2 and Class II/III environments, and verify insulation, temperature, and conductor sizing. Use proper grounding and secure mounting to maintain enclosure integrity and safety in hazardous areas.
EFSC2184 features a 600 Vac voltage rating, single-gang enclosure, one pushbutton and one device, and through-feed hub configuration. Certifications include NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings Class I/Division 1 and 2, Class II/Division 1 and 2, Class III, with a NEMA 3/7/9 enclosure. These specs support safe operation in demanding environments.
Yes. EFSC2184’s explosion-proof construction and hazardous-location ratings make it suitable for oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and other high-hazard operations. Its through-feed hubs and 600 Vac capability support reliable, safe start/stop control in harsh environments, aligning with site classifications and safety protocols.
EFSC2184 is supported by UL certification documentation for hazardous locations (EDS/EFS family) and installation guidelines such as IF 899 for control stations. US and Canada listings cover Class I/II/III locations, with references available in Eaton’s certification and catalog resources to ensure compliant retrofits and field installations.
The rugged Feraloy iron alloy construction, coupled with a compact, through-feed design, reduces maintenance frequency and wiring errors during installation. This leads to longer service life, fewer parts replacements, and lower total cost of ownership due to minimized downtime and streamlined spare parts management in hazardous-location control stations.
