Expanded fill sealing design reduces leakage paths and protects conductors in harsh environments. By minimizing seal degradation and ingress risk during thermal cycling and vibration, it lowers inspection intervals and mitigates unplanned downtime across facilities. It suits 4 inch trade size conduits with vertical or horizontal sealing, making it ideal for offshore platforms, chemical plants, and refineries where space and orientation vary. Material strength and corrosion resistance come from the Feraloy iron alloy body, engineered to withstand harsh chemicals, humidity, and temperature cycling. This combination translates to longer service life in aggressive atmospheres, reducing replacement costs and downtime, while preserving seal integrity under vibration. The seal system maintains performance in rugged spaces and outdoor installations. NEC/CEC compliance and NEC hazardous ratings ensure regulatory alignment across North America. Certifications cover Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, Class III, with Canadian approvals for added project flexibility. This reduces the need for multiple adapters, streamlines approvals, and supports QA processes during audits and commissioning. Installation flexibility is a key advantage of EYSX10, with supports vertical or horizontal sealing and a robust 4 inch interface. The design works with standard conduit systems and existing Eaton Crouse-Hinds sealing fittings, enabling faster field assembly and fewer modifications. Operators benefit from simplified training, consistent field performance, and predictable lifecycle costs. Documentation and technical support from Eaton — including IF 288 installation sheets and the official data sheet — back field teams with clear guidance. Availability of Canadian certifications and UL references further reduces regulatory risk. In practice, procurement, installation, and maintenance teams gain confidence that the product meets stringent industrial requirements. Compatibility and scalability extend across the Eaton Crouse-Hinds EYSX family, ensuring seamless integration with existing conduit systems and replacement parts. The design supports future upgrades and retrofit projects with minimal field modification, helping procurement teams optimize stock and reduce total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.

FAQs
When installing the EYSX10 expanded sealing fitting in hazardous areas, ensure the enclosure or cabinet is rated for Class I, II, and III locations and that the conduit entry aligns with the device's vertical or horizontal sealing orientation. Use proper torque on mounting threads, maintain the 4 inch trade size, and follow IF 288 installation sheets for correct sealing and wiring. Always verify electrical clearance and cleanliness before commissioning.
EYSX10 carries NEC/CEC standards with NEC hazardous ratings Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, plus Canadian certification reports. This broad certification supports compliance across North America, reduces the need for multiple adapters, and simplifies QA audits. It also aligns with area classifications for Hazardous/Classified Locations, streamlining project approvals.
Yes. EYSX10 is designed for a 4 inch trade size interface and supports vertical or horizontal mounting, which accommodates common conduit layouts in industrial plants. It integrates with standard conduit systems and Eaton Crouse-Hinds sealing fittings, enabling faster field assembly and minimizing the need for adapters or custom hardware.
The Feraloy iron alloy body offers superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance downtime. The reliable seal performance minimizes leaks and ingress-related issues, translating to lower lifecycle costs. Long-term savings are further realized through simpler training, faster commissioning, and fewer aftermarket parts on hand.
Official datasheets and installation instructions for EYSX10 are available from Eaton's Crouse-Hinds catalog pages and the AutomationDatabase downloads. Look for the EYSX10 specification sheet, IF 288 installation sheet, and related Canadian certification references to support procurement, QA audits, and field training.
