Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYS6 SA Conduit Sealing Fitting - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: EYS6 SA
Quick Summary
The EYS6 SA conduit sealing fitting is a rugged sealing solution for hazardous-location enclosures in industrial plants. Engineers often struggle with maintaining seal integrity under vibration, limited space, and complex installation sequences. This product carries NEC/CEC certifications and explicit Hazardous/Classified Locations ratings including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, providing confidence across upstream and downstream operations. Vertical or horizontal sealing flexibility supports precise fit in tight conduits and variable orientations. By combining lightweight copper-free aluminum with robust sealing, it helps reduce weight, downtime, and total cost of ownership while enabling compliant, proactive maintenance practices.

FAQs
For proper installation, follow the IF 287 conduit sealing instructions and ensure the sealing orientation matches the enclosure layout. Verify the 2" trade size, female configuration, and copper-free aluminum construction are compatible with your conduit system. Use appropriate gaskets and tighten per manufacturer guidance to prevent leaks in hazardous locations. Field teams should plan orientation in advance to minimize rework in tight spaces.
Key specifications include 2" trade size, female gender, copper-free aluminum material, sealing position vertical or horizontal, and a datasheet-confirmed length of 5.2 in, height of 3.6 in, and width of 9.3 in. It weighs 1.95 lb and is UPC 782274275772. It is designed for NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 & 2, Class II Division 1 & 2, and Class III ratings for hazardous locations.
Yes. The EYS6 SA is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations under NEC/CEC standards, including Class I Division 1 & 2, Class II Division 1 & 2, and Class III. This makes it appropriate for electrical enclosures in oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and other environments where hazardous atmospheres require explosion-protected sealing.
The EYS6 SA carries NEC/CEC standards with explicit hazardous-location ratings (Class I, Division 1 & 2; Class II, Division 1 & 2; Class III) and area classification of Hazardous/Classified Locations. This compliance supports code approvals, project qualification, and safer operation in regulated industries, including cross-border projects that necessitate Canadian certifications as referenced in product documentation.
Installing the EYS6 SA delivers measurable ROI through enhanced seal integrity, reduced field rework due to orientation flexibility, and faster commissioning thanks to notes and installation guidance. Its lighter copper-free aluminum construction improves handling, while certified hazardous-location ratings reduce compliance risk and potential downtime in critical process areas.
