Eaton Specification Sheet - EYSX5 SA
Copper-free aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and lighter handling, improving onsite ergonomics and long-term durability in harsh environments. This material choice translates to lower maintenance costs and less weight for easier mounting in crowded electrical rooms, aligning with industrial best practices for hazardous locations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The copper-free alloy reduces total cost of ownership by minimizing corrosion risk in aggressive atmospheres; ideal for outdoor enclosures and wet plants where sealing integrity is critical. Application: Use in explosive atmospheres where long-term resistance to environmental ingress supports uptime and compliance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Female gender on the fitting ensures straightforward, universal compatibility with standard conduit hubs, reducing installation time and error rates. Application: Great for retrofit projects and new builds in process plants seeking swift, reliable connections. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 1-1/2 inch trade size delivers broad compatibility with common conduit networks, supporting scalable electrical layouts in plants and facilities. Application: Suitable for mid-size to large installations needing consistent sizing across multiple runs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Vertical or horizontal sealing flexibility enables installers to adapt to space constraints and orientation requirements on panels, enclosures, and field terminations. Application: Maximizes install options in cluttered electrical racks and compact switchgear rooms. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC compliance and area-classification ratings provide documented safety and regulatory alignment, reducing risk audits and rework. Application: Essential for chemical plants, oil & gas facilities, and refineries with rigorous hazardous-location standards.
