Eaton EZS56 conduit sealing fitting - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: EZS56
Quick Summary
EZS56 conduit sealing fitting is a robust sealing solution for hazardous-location conduit in industrial electrical installations. Many engineers struggle with moisture ingress, dust, and regulatory gaps when upgrading enclosures in harsh plant environments. This unit aligns with NEC/CEC requirements and hazardous-location classifications, including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, helping you stay compliant with minimal rework. With mounting flexibility for any angle and rugged feraloy iron alloy and ductile iron construction, EZS56 delivers long service life while shortening install times on automation projects. This combination reduces maintenance intervals and improves safety by ensuring a tight seal around demanding conduit penetrations. In practice, teams benefit from clear installation guides and readily available datasheets during procurement and setup.

Any-angle mounting is a core feature of EZS56, enabling installation in tight or irregular spaces without compromising seal integrity. This flexibility reduces the effort required to route conduits around structural elements, enhances panel density, and lowers wiring risk in crowded electrical rooms. In harsh outdoor or chemical environments, the ability to mount at virtually any angle translates to faster commissioning and fewer field adaptations during retrofit projects. Fabricated from a Feraloy iron alloy and, when specified, ductile iron, EZS56 delivers outstanding mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. This durability minimizes coating wear and ingress pathways over time, yielding lower maintenance requirements and longer service life in demanding industries such as oil & gas, chemical processing, and mining. The 1-1/2" trade size paired with male and female connections provides versatile terminations, reducing the need for multiple adapters and simplifying inventory. The compact footprint (approximately 4.56 in length and width, 5.19 in height) supports space-constrained installations, while compatibility with standard conduit systems speeds up upgrades in control cabinets and junction boxes. The design supports quick field modifications, lowering labor hours during panel upgrades and expansions. NEC/CEC compliance and Hazardous/Classified Location ratings (Class I Division 1 and 2; Class II Division 1 and 2; Class III) ensure regulatory alignment for audits, reduce project risk, and enable safe operation in environments with flammable or combustible materials. Industry teams in automation, process industries, and energy infrastructure benefit from proven safety margins and consistent performance under demanding conditions. To support procurement and on-site setup, Eaton provides a complete set of engineering resources including 3D CAD drawings, installation instructions IF 287 for conduit sealing, and the EZS56 specification sheet, reducing risk and accelerating deployment.
