Ensure vertical run alignment, proper enclosure clearance, and use compatible connectors to maintain the drain path and sealing integrity. Follow IF 287 instructions for conduit sealing during installation.
Key specs include a 2-1/2" trade size, female gender, vertical-only sealing, and construction from Feraloy iron alloy and/or ductile iron. Weight is 7.38 lb with overall dimensions of roughly 3.5 in by 7.5 in by 3.5 in. These factors influence seal effectiveness and mechanical durability in hazardous environments.
Yes, the EYD7 is designed for hazardous/classified locations and is compatible with NEC/CEC standards. Its robust metal construction and drainage feature support outdoor or exposed installations where moisture and debris are concerns, provided you follow the installation guidance for vertical drainage and sealing.
The EYD7 carries NEC/CEC standards compliance and hazardous-location ratings including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, with area classifications for Hazardous/Classified Locations. Canadian certifications are also referenced in catalog materials.
The drain feature reduces moisture build-up inside conduits, mitigating corrosion and sealing degradation. This lowers preventive maintenance frequency, extends service life, and reduces unexpected downtime, delivering a favorable return on investment for high-risk facilities.
