Eaton Specification Sheet - EYDX61
Expanded fill sealing with drain delivers a robust barrier against moisture ingress, minimizing corrosion risk and sealing failures. This translates to fewer maintenance calls and lower total cost of ownership in hazardous locations. Use it in chemical plants, refineries, and offshore installations where continuous operation matters. The vertical sealing position simplifies alignment in tight enclosures and reduces installation time, improving field productivity and consistency across crews. Material construction from Feraloy iron alloy and ductile iron delivers durability and corrosion resistance, translating to longer service life in harsh environments and lower replacement costs. NEC/CEC compliance and multiple hazardous location ratings provide risk reduction and audit-friendly documentation for regulated facilities. The 2 inch trade size aligns with common conduit inventories, while Group B rating broadens applicability across demanding chemical and petrochemical plants. Compatibility with EYDX components and clear installation instructions enable faster, error-free field assembly and lower training costs.
