Quick Summary

EYDX51 is an expanded fill sealing fitting for explosion-proof conduit systems in hazardous locations. Maintenance teams face moisture ingress and downtime when fittings lack drain options, sealing integrity, and easy inspection access. It delivers NEC/CEC compliance with hazardous location ratings Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; Class III, plus UL-listed Canadian certification for additional assurance. The vertical-only sealing position and 1-1/2 inch trade size simplify installation in vertical runs, while the durable Feraloy iron alloy and/or ductile iron construction improves longevity in tough environments. These attributes translate to lower lifecycle costs and faster, safer system upgrades for industrial facilities.

FAQs

EYDX51 is designed for vertical sealing with a 1-1/2 inch trade size, Female connection, and drain feature. This simplifies alignment in vertical conduits, reduces seal failure risks, and speeds up installation in hazardous environments while maintaining compliance with NEC/CEC and Class I/II/III ratings.
EYDX51 carries NEC/CEC compliance, hazardous location ratings (Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; Class III), and UL Canada certification. These certifications help ensure regulatory eligibility, safer operation in explosive atmospheres, and smoother cross-border commissioning for industrial facilities.
Yes. EYDX51 is a 1-1/2" trade size, female fitting designed for standard conduit systems. Its vertical sealing orientation and drain features reduce installation complexity, enable faster retrofit projects, and improve field reliability in tight or vertical runs common in factories and plants.
EYDX51 uses Feraloy iron alloy and/or ductile iron, providing strong mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. This material combination is well-suited for aggressive environments found in oil, gas, chemical plants, and mining operations, extending service life and lowering replacement costs.
The drain feature and robust sealing reduce moisture-related seal failures, minimizing maintenance cycles and downtime. Coupled with NEC/CEC compliance and Group B rating, EYDX51 supports safer installations and faster project approvals, delivering lower lifecycle costs and improved uptime across hazardous-location facilities.
