Eaton EYD1016 Conduit Sealing Fitting - Group B rated
Part Number: EYD1016
Quick Summary
EYD1016 conduit sealing fitting is designed to deliver a reliable drain-sealed connection for electrical conduit in hazardous environments. Operators struggle with moisture ingress, corrosion, and compliance gaps when conduit fittings fail in harsh conditions. This solution carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings, including Group B protection for Class I and II environments as well as Class III considerations, while offering ductile iron or Feraloy iron alloy construction for durability. The vertical-only sealing orientation supports consistent drainage in upright runs, reducing maintenance needs. By combining rugged materials, proven safety ratings, and a straightforward installation profile, EYD1016 helps contractors shorten commissioning times and protect assets in demanding facilities.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EYD1016
Drain-enabled sealing provides a reliable path for condensate to escape, reducing moisture accumulation that accelerates corrosion and compromise of electrical integrity. This translates to longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs in damp, outdoor, or industrial environments. Applications include vertical conduit runs in refineries, chemical plants, and remote installations where drainage matters. Rigid ductile iron housing and Feraloy iron alloy construction deliver high strength and corrosion resistance, supporting Group B rated safety in hazardous locations. This material choice helps resist impact and chemical exposure, minimizing replacement cycles and service downtime. With a 4 inch trade size and both male and female ends, the EYD1016 fits standard conduit networks while simplifying spare parts planning. The vertical sealing position reduces installation complexity and ensures predictable drainage paths across installations. Compliance and compatibility are streamlined by NEC/CEC certifications and availability of installation guides and datasheets, enabling faster approval cycles. The design supports seamless integration with Eaton Crouse-Hinds sealing fittings families for broader system coverage. From a field perspective, the drain feature reduces water pooling inside the seal, translating to fewer nuisance leaks and longer equipment life. Operators report lower maintenance crews’ time spent on leak-related issues and improved overall reliability.

FAQs
EYD1016 is designed for vertical installations with a vertical sealing position and uses both male and female ends for versatile assembly. Ensure proper mounting in upright conduit runs and consult the IF 287 instruction sheet for installation guidelines to maintain the drain pathway and Group B rating in hazardous locations.
Key specs include a 4 inch trade size, ductile iron or Feraloy iron alloy body, vertical sealing position, and both male and female connections. It carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous location ratings (Class I, II, III). This combination supports reliable sealing, durability, and safe operation in demanding environments.
Yes. EYD1016 is Group B rated and certified for hazardous locations under NEC/CEC, covering Class I and Class II, as well as Class III environments, making it suitable for chemical plants, refineries, and similar facilities.
EYD1016 adheres to NEC/CEC standards for hazardous locations and carries area classifications such as Hazardous/Classified Locations. This alignment helps with regulatory approvals, safer installations, and smoother inspection outcomes in industrial plants.
The drain feature reduces moisture pooling, lowering corrosion risk and leak-related maintenance. The rugged materials (ductile iron / Feraloy alloy) extend service life in harsh environments, reducing replacement cycles and downtime, which translates to lower total cost of ownership.
