FAQs
EYD916 is designed for 3-1/2" trade-size conduit with male and female connections, supporting versatile field assembly. Its ductile iron/Feraloy alloy construction handles demanding environments, while the vertical sealing configuration simplifies alignment in vertical runs. This compatibility reduces rework and inventory needs, improving installation efficiency and long-term reliability in hazardous-location facilities.
EYD916 carries NEC/CEC compliance and NEC hazardous ratings across Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III. It is designed for Hazardous/Classified Locations and supports Group B rated service. These certifications ensure regulatory acceptance in diverse industries, including oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining, while aligning with safety and performance expectations.
Yes. Documentation references Canadian certifications via UL, indicating suitability for use in Canada. This includes the EYD/EZD sealing fittings line with drain, providing cross-border assurance for projects that require UL-listed explosionproof components and compliance with Canadian safety standards.
The drain in EYD916 prevents water accumulation inside the conduit seal, reducing corrosion risk and moisture-related degradation. This translates to longer service life, fewer reseals or replacements, and lower maintenance costs in wash-down areas, chemical plants, and offshore facilities where moisture exposure is common.
Ideal for hazardous-location applications such as oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and water treatment. The combination of vertical drain, Group B rating, and NEC/CEC conformity makes it suitable for explosionproof conduit sealing in areas with strict regulatory requirements, where reliable sealing and drainage are essential for uptime and safety.
