Eaton Specification Sheet - EYD41
Feature: The body is fabricated from Feraloy iron alloy and ductile iron, delivering exceptional toughness in explosive atmospheres. Impact: This construction increases sealing integrity and safety margins, reducing unplanned maintenance and replacement costs. Application: Ideal for 1-1/4 inch, female, vertical conduit runs in oil and gas, chemical processing, and mining environments where rugged enclosure protection matters. In practice, you gain a durable connection that withstands thermal cycling and mechanical stress, supporting longer service intervals and lower total cost of ownership. Feature: Drain capability is integral to the sealing design. Impact: It promotes moisture drainage and water exclusion, lowering corrosion risk and extending component life in humid or washdown-prone plants. Application: Wet plant floors, outdoor installations, offshore platforms, and locations with frequent rain or condensation. Industry feedback shows that fittings with drains reduce corrosion penalties and downtime during scheduled maintenance. Feature: Group B rating for hazardous locations. Impact: This rating aligns with NEC/CEC expectations and UL certifications, simplifying compliance documentation and reducing regulatory risk for projects. Application: Installations in Class I and Class II zones across refining, petrochemical, chemical processing, and mineral extraction facilities. The rating also facilitates cross-border projects by meeting both US and Canada hazardous location standards. Feature: Vertical-only sealing position and 1-1/4 inch trade size. Impact: Streamlines installation in vertical conduits and standardizes replacements, reducing field time and inventory complexity. Application: New builds and retrofits with tight duct runs or overhead conduits where horizontal fittings would complicate routing. The vertical orientation also minimizes liquid pooling in the seal interface during drainage cycles. Feature: Material compatibility and installation support. Impact: Ductile iron and ferrous alloys withstand aggressive chemicals and temperature variations, while Eaton’s installation sheets and catalogs provide clear guidance. Application: End-user installations requiring reliable explosionproof fittings, with documented installation steps and UL/NEC/CEC references to speed commissioning.

FAQs
When installing the EYD41, ensure vertical orientation per specifications and use appropriate sealing gaskets for the 1-1/4 inch trade size. Follow the IF 287 conduit sealing guidelines for correct torque, seal alignment, and drainage clearance. Reference the Crouse-Hinds installation sheets to confirm mounting hardware compatibility and to minimize retrofit complexity in Class I/II environments.
EYD41 is designed for NEC/CEC compliant installations and carries UL certifications for use in hazardous locations. It supports Class I and Class II zones (divisions 1 and 2) and Class III, aligning with U.S. and Canadian safety standards. This certification portfolio helps simplify project approvals and procurement for multinational facilities.
Yes. The EYD41 is a 1-1/4 inch (trade size) female conduit sealing fitting with a vertical sealing position. Its design supports straightforward integration with standard 1-1/4 inch conduit runs, enabling rapid field installation and consistent performance across new builds and retrofits in hazardous locations.
The EYD41 includes an integrated drain feature to promote moisture drainage and water exclusion. This design reduces water accumulation at the seal interface, lowers corrosion risk, and extends service life in washdown-prone, humid, or offshore environments, contributing to longer intervals between maintenance cycles.
Using the EYD41 can deliver notable ROI through improved uptime, reduced maintenance, and easier compliance. Its robust construction, drain capability, and Group B rating minimize downtime in hazardous locations, while standard 1-1/4 inch sizing and established installation guides shorten commissioning times and lower inventory costs over the equipment lifecycle.
