400A fused with-switch enclosure is the core feature, delivering high-current protection and immediate isolation in a single device, reducing arc-flash exposure during maintenance and simplifying lockout-tagout procedures. In hazardous-location environments such as chemical processing or mining, this feature translates to safer work and faster outage restoration. The device supports 240-600 VAC/250 VDC and HP ratings of 50/125/250/350, providing flexibility to handle multiple motor loads without swapping hardware, cutting spare-part inventories and downtime. This versatile range enables engineers to consolidate protections for complex lines and SCOAD (single-lailure) architectures, improving overall system reliability in plants with varying horsepower requirements. Copper-free aluminum construction offers corrosion resistance and lighter handling, enhancing lifecycle cost efficiency and enabling easier field service in harsh environments. The enclosure design complements installation in corrosive settings and reduces maintenance cycles by withstanding demanding duty cycles. NEC/CEC compliance and the stated hazardous-location ratings (Class I Division 1/2, Zone 1/2; Class II Division 1; Class III) align with strict regulatory expectations and NEMA protections (3, 3R, 4, 7, 9), reducing compliance risk and accelerating project approval. Comprehensive documentation, including 3D CAD packages, SP3D design packages, and installation sheets, supports rapid, accurate deployments and future scalability. This ecosystem minimizes field rework and enables a smoother upgrade path for evolving facilities. In practice, users experience safer, faster maintenance cycles, fewer miswires, and a clearer path to regulatory conformity when expanding hazardous-location protection.

FAQs
EIDDF3400 is designed for hazardous locations with Class I Division 1/2 and Zone 1/2 ratings, plus Class II Division 1 and Class III. It uses a copper-free aluminum enclosure and standard mounting footprints compatible with Crouse-Hinds EID series enclosures. When installing, verify site classifications, follow IF1696 instruction sheets, and reference UL listings to ensure compliant wiring and safe enclosure fit.
The 400A amperage rating, fused protection, and HP range of 50/125/250/350 enable safe isolation for large motors. With 240-600 VAC/250 VDC capability, it accommodates diverse drive and motor configurations. This reduces the need for multiple devices, simplifies maintenance, and minimizes arc-flash risk during switching in demanding industrial applications.
EIDDF3400 carries NEC/CEC standards and NEC hazardous ratings, including Class I Division 1 and Zone 1, Class I Division 2 and Zone 2, Class II Division 1, and Class III. It aligns with NEMA 3, 3R, 4, 7, 9 protection levels, and is supported by UL certifications. These certifications support compliance in oil & gas, chemical, and mining environments.
By consolidating switching, fusing, and isolation in a single rugged enclosure, EIDDF3400 reduces maintenance time, lowers downtime costs, and minimizes the risk of human error during energization or de-energization. Its copper-free aluminum construction offers longer service life in corrosive environments, reducing spare-part and replacement costs over the equipment’s life cycle.
