Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYS216 SA Conduit Sealing Fitting - Group B rated
Part Number: EYS216 SA
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYS216 SA conduit sealing fittings provide explosion-proof, sealed conduit connections for hazardous locations. Field installers often struggle with leaks and incomplete seals in harsh environments, leading to costly rework and downtime. The design aligns with NEC/CEC requirements and UL listings, supporting Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings for area classifications. With copper-free aluminum, the unit is lighter and more corrosion-resistant, while vertical or horizontal sealing offers installation flexibility in tight spaces, reducing commissioning time and inventory complexity for plant operators. This combination delivers safer, faster, and more compliant conduit terminations for process and energy facilities.

Trade-size compatibility is built in: the 3/4 inch trade size matches standard conduit systems, enabling quick inventory alignment and faster panel builds, which translates to reduced project lead times and fewer field errors. Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight, improving handling during overhead installs and lowering shipping costs, while offering robust corrosion resistance for outdoor or harsh environments. Vertical or horizontal sealing configuration provides installation flexibility in tight spaces, facilitating easier retrofits and new builds without compromising seal integrity. Male and female configurations simplify field assembly and inventory management, letting technicians adapt to existing fittings without lengthy adapters. Group B rating and NEC/CEC compliance ensure safe operation in hazardous areas, while UL listings provide external verification for customers and inspectors. Installation resources, including the IF 287 instruction sheet and available datasheet, support error-free, compliant terminations in demanding facilities.

FAQs
EYS216 SA supports vertical or horizontal sealing to accommodate varying cabinet depths and enclosure orientations. It is designed for both male and female terminations in a 3/4 inch trade size, enabling straightforward installations in tight spaces and complex piping layouts. The copper-free aluminum body keeps weight manageable for overhead or wall-mounted conduit runs, while maintaining robust sealing performance in hazardous environments.
EYS216 SA is specified for NEC/CEC compliance and carries UL listings suitable for hazardous locations. It supports Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings, aligning with area classifications for hazardous environments. Field installation practices should reference the IF 287 conduit sealing instruction and the official datasheet for installation guidance, ensuring code-compliant terminations.
Yes. The Group B rating and Hazardous/Classified Locations area classification make EYS216 SA appropriate for oil and gas, chemical processing, and other high-risk industrial environments. Its explosion-proof sealing, 3/4 inch trade size, and copper-free aluminum construction provide reliable protection against sparks and seals failures while supporting long service life in corrosive atmospheres.
EYS216 SA carries NEC/CEC compliance with UL certification for hazardous locations. You can verify the UL listings via the provided UL certification links and consult Eaton’s installation resources, including the IF 287 instruction sheet and the Eaton specification sheet, to ensure proper installation and certification alignment during commissioning.
The copper-free aluminum body reduces weight and minimizes corrosion-related maintenance in harsh environments, contributing to lower lifecycle costs. The robust sealing and hazardous-location ratings reduce the risk of leaks or seal failures, leading to fewer field service visits and improved uptime in critical systems such as refineries, chemical plants, and mining operations.
