Quick Summary
The EMH533 20000 instrument housing from Eaton Crouse-Hinds protects meters in hazardous locations. Engineers often struggle with safe mounting, enclosure integrity, and regulatory compliance in demanding plants. This enclosure carries NEC/CEC certification and Hazardous/Classified Location ratings (Class I, II, and III), with rugged NEMA protections to withstand tough industrial environments. Its surface-mount design and copper-free aluminum construction deliver durability without adding excessive weight. A single 3/4" conduit opening reduces wiring complexity, while a compact 5 lb footprint eases retrofits in crowded panels. Compatibility with select GE and Weston meters ensures a tight, reliable fit, shortens installation time, and lowers total installed cost over the life of the system.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EMH533 20000
Copper-free aluminum construction provides excellent corrosion resistance in harsh environments, reducing maintenance cycles and extending service life. The result is lower lifecycle costs and fewer field replacements, especially in chemical or moisture-prone facilities where meter enclosures are exposed to the elements. The enclosure weighs about 5 lb and measures 5.75 in by 5.75 in by 5.69 in, delivering a compact, easy-to-handle footprint that simplifies installation in restricted panels and overhead spaces, improving crew productivity. A single 3/4" conduit opening supports straightforward wiring, minimizing termination time and potential seal breaches, while the dead-end style promotes reliable conductor termination in outdoor or rugged indoor installations. Surface mounting allows quick commissioning and minimizes mounting hardware needs, reducing both labor and potential vibration-induced wear. The product’s NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings 3, 7, 9, 12 provide proven protection against dust, water, and hazardous atmosphere ingress, supporting regulatory adherence and safer operation in demanding plants. Compatibility with GE and Weston meters consolidates instrumentation, helping inventory control and reducing mismatch risk across meter programs in facilities undergoing modernization or expansion.
