Copper-free aluminum
Copper-free aluminum construction provides outstanding corrosion resistance in aggressive environments while keeping weight manageable for fast handling during installation and field service. This material choice minimizes galvanic issues when enclosed with other metals in mixed-material enclosures, boosting long-term reliability in chemical plants, refineries, and outdoor installations. The GRUE19’s rugged housing stands up to temperature swings, vibration, and routine wear, helping extend service life and reduce replacement cycles. For engineering teams, the combination translates into fewer field repairs and lower total cost of ownership over the enclosure lifecycle. The 1/2 inch trade size accommodates standard conduit runs, and the enclosure footprint (5.66 in square with a 4.28 in height) fits compact control panels without crowding nearby devices. This geometry also supports neat cable routing and easier compliance checks in space-constrained installations, while preserving ample space for termination hardware. The design aligns with GRUE accessories and common installation practices to minimize component count. Hazardous location readiness is built into the enclosure with NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings 3 and 4, enabling safer terminations and reduced ingress of dust and water. Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings provide broad regulatory coverage for diverse process environments, helping you meet site-specific safety requirements. Canadian certifications referenced in UL files further support cross-border deployments. Documentation and installation support streamline engineering workflows: IF 1707 instruction sheets, catalog pages, and datasheets are readily available for reference during design and commissioning. The GRUE family maintains consistent mounting patterns, simplifying retrofits and spare-part compatibility across projects, while providing predictable sourcing for procurement teams. From procurement through field deployment, GRUE19 delivers lifecycle value with reliable performance, traceable specifications, and compatibility with GRUE accessories, helping teams meet tight delivery schedules and stay within budget. The enclosure’s copper-free aluminum construction provides lightweight handling, while its hazardous-location ratings reduce risk and regulatory overhead, making it a sensible choice for new installs and upgrades alike.
