Eaton EYD16 conduit sealing fitting - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: EYD16
Quick Summary
EYD16 conduit sealing fitting protects hazardous-location penetrations in industrial enclosures. Unsealed penetrations invite moisture, dust, and vapors that drive corrosion, downtime, and compliance risk in demanding environments. Certified to NEC/CEC standards with Class I Division 1 and Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings, it supports safe installation across oil, gas, and chemical facilities. Built from ductile iron (Feraloy iron alloy) with a drain, it provides a reliable vertical seal and long service life, reducing maintenance costs. This rugged hardware pairing simplifies procurement and accelerates field installations for engineering teams and procurement professionals.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EYD16
Feature: Rugged ductile iron construction (Feraloy iron alloy) delivers exceptional durability in aggressive environments. Business Impact: reduces replacement costs and downtime due to impact, corrosion, and vibrations. Application: ideal for chemical plants, oil refineries, mining, and marine facilities where equipment endures harsh conditions. Feature: Drain-enabled design integrated into the sealing fitting. Business Impact: moisture and condensate are directed away, reducing the risk of internal corrosion and seal degradation. Application: vertical installation where drainage is critical, such as conduit penetrations in tanks or enclosures. Feature: 1/2 inch trade size with male and female configurations for compatibility. Business Impact: streamlines installation by eliminating adapters and reduces inventory complexity. Application: integrates with standard conduit runs in new builds and retrofit projects. Feature: Vertical sealing position only. Business Impact: ensures predictable seal orientation and drainage flow, minimizing misalignment during assembly. Application: penetrations in ceilings, walls, or cabinets requiring vertical drainage. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings (Class I Div 1/2, Class II Div 1/2, Class III). Business Impact: accelerates approvals, reduces QA findings, and supports safe operation. Application: compliance-driven installations in oil, gas, chemical, and mining sectors.

FAQs
EYD16 is designed for 1/2 inch trade size conduit and supports both male and female connections. Its vertical sealing position with a drain simplifies alignment during installation, reducing the need for adapters and minimizing field errors. Suitable for hazardous locations, the unit aligns with NEC/CEC requirements, streamlining initial commissioning and ongoing maintenance in oil, gas, and chemical facilities.
The EYD16 features a drain-enabled seal and ductile iron (Feraloy) construction for durability in harsh environments. It carries NEC/CEC compliance with hazardous-location ratings including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III. The vertical sealing design ensures reliable moisture exclusion in vertical runs, helping prevent ingress-related failures in challenging installations.
Yes, the EYD16 is specified for vertical installations with a vertical sealing position. This orientation supports effective drainage and seal integrity in ceiling, wall, or cabinet penetrations. Its 1/2 inch trade size and dual gender (male and female) capabilities further ease mounting in standard conduit systems used in refineries and chemical plants.
The EYD16 complies with NEC/CEC standards and is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations, including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III. These certifications help accelerate approvals, reduce audit findings, and ensure safe operation in oil, gas, chemical, and mining environments.
The EYD16’s durable ductile iron construction and integrated drain reduce the frequency of replacements and maintenance in harsh environments. By delivering reliable seals and drainage, it lowers downtime and inspection costs, improves compliance visibility, and supports longer service life for conduit penetrations in hazardous locations, delivering a strong total cost of ownership across capital projects.
