Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYD316 Conduit Sealing Fitting - Group B

Material construction uses Feraloy iron alloy and ductile iron, delivering superior impact resistance, corrosion resistance, and thermal durability in harsh industrial environments. This rugged build reduces field repairs, lowers maintenance costs, and extends service life even under vibration, moisture exposure, or chemical contact common in manufacturing and process facilities. For purchasing teams, the material choice simplifies spares inventories because a single conduit sealing solution can cover multiple applications without compromising performance. Vertical-only sealing position is engineered to optimize drainage, orientation, and seal integrity in vertical conduits. By eliminating alternative orientations, it reduces the risk of improper seating and leakage, speeds field assembly, and improves consistency across installers. The result is faster commissioning, fewer warranty issues, and predictable performance in critical hazardous-location deployments. 1" trade size with male and female connectors enables direct mating with standard conduits and fittings, minimizing adapters and inventory. The compact 2.19 in length and 4.31 in height fit tight spaces while maintaining robust sealing against dust, water, and gas ingress. The design supports quick field retrofits and streamlined stock management for maintenance projects. Group B rated and NEC/CEC compliance provide regulatory alignment for explosion-proof conduit systems in hazardous environments. UL certification options for Canada and the US reinforce safety assurances, while the area classification designation Hazardous/Classified Locations ensures suitability for Class I, II, and III zones. These certifications help minimize project risk and accelerate approvals on new builds or plant expansions. Drain capability helps prevent water accumulation inside the conduit during rain exposure or washdowns, reducing corrosion risk and seal degradation. Combined with the drain, the device supports reliable long-term operation in outdoor, wet, or chemically challenging settings while maintaining a compact footprint and straightforward installation with standard mating parts.
