Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYD216 Conduit Sealing Fitting - Group B
Part Number: EYD216
Quick Summary
EYD216 conduit sealing fitting with drain provides reliable sealing for 3/4" conduits in hazardous locations. Many installations struggle with moisture ingress, corrosion, and hazardous atmosphere leakage when conduit seals fail or drains clog. The unit is NEC/CEC compliant and rated for hazardous locations, including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, with a Group B rating. Its ductile iron/feraloy construction and vertical sealing orientation are designed for rugged industrial environments. By combining robust explosion-proof conduit sealing with a drain, it supports safer, compliant installations while reducing maintenance cycles and replacement costs. Ideal for industrial automation panels and rugged electrical rooms where reliability and compliance matter.

FAQs
EYD216 installs with both male and female threads for easy integration into 3/4" conduit runs. Position is vertical sealing with a drain, so ensure the conduit route allows gravity drainage and that the seal interfaces with compatible EYD/EZD fittings. Use proper thread sealant and follow Eaton’s IF 287 instructions for optimal sealing integrity and maintain an internal clear drain path.
Key specs include 3/4" trade size, vertical sealing orientation, ductile iron with Feraloy iron alloy, and Group B hazardous-location rating. It is designed for male and female connections and supports Class I/II (Division 1 and 2) and Class III environments under NEC/CEC standards. Confirm dimensions (1.5 in length, 1.5 in width, 3.69 in height) and weight (approximately 1.94 lb) for fitment and handling during installation.
Yes. EYD216 is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations under NEC/CEC and supports Class I/II, Division 1 and 2 and Class III scenarios. Its Group B rating provides a robust seal against ignition hazards when used with appropriate glands and conduits, making it suitable for many oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining environments where reliable sealing and drainage are required.
EYD216 carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings (Area classification). It is certified for use in Hazardous/Classified Locations with Class I, Division 1/2 and Class II, Division 1/2 and Class III, and is Group B rated. These certifications help streamline regulatory approvals and support safety-focused installation practices.
The drain-equipped, vertical-sealing design reduces moisture buildup and corrosion, lowering maintenance cycles and extending component life. Ductile/ferroalloy materials offer strong mechanical resilience, reducing replacement costs. The standard 3/4" size and compatibility with standard fittings accelerate installation, improving project timelines and overall ROI for hazardous-location conduit networks.
