Eaton Crouse-Hinds GRUE39 Condulet Outlet Box - Hazardous
Part Number: GRUE39
Quick Summary
GRUE39 is a rugged Condulet cable outlet box that protects wiring connections in hazardous industrial locations. Many engineers contend with corrosion, dust ingress, and maintenance downtime when enclosures aren’t up to code or built for tough environments. This GRUE series carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous location ratings across Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, Class III, plus a NEMA 3 and 4 protection rating. The copper-free aluminum construction and 1" trade size help deliver lighter weight handling and resilient service in demanding plants. In practice, it supports faster installation, fewer seal failures, and sustained compliance across electrical infrastructure projects.

Eaton Specification Sheet - GRUE39
Feature: Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight while resisting corrosion in harsh environments. Business Impact: lighter enclosures lower shipping and labor costs and extend service life in busy plants. Application: ideal for conveyor lines and outdoor equipment where frequent maintenance is impractical. Feature: 1" trade size accommodates common conduits and fittings without custom adapters. Business Impact: faster field assembly and fewer install-time adjustments, minimizing downtime. Application: electrical panels and junctions in hazardous locations where space is at a premium. Feature: NEMA 3 and 4 protection with NEC/CEC compliance and Hazardous/Classified Locations ratings (Class I/II/III). Business Impact: ensures regulatory acceptance and safer operation, reducing risk of downtime due to enclosure failures. Application: chemical plants, oil & gas facilities, and mining sites with challenging environmental exposure. Feature: Robust dimensions and weight—5.66 in square footprint, 4.28 in height, 5.66 in depth, and about 4.8 lb—support easy handling and retrofit compatibility. Business Impact: simplifies inventory planning and installation in retrofit projects, improving project schedules. Application: cable terminations inside control panels and junction boxes across industrial facilities. Feature: Documentation and certification support including UL-certified installation resources for GRUE; IF1707 instruction sheets and the Eaton GRUE datasheets provide clear guidance. Business Impact: reduces uncertainty during procurement and speeds commissioning with approved procedures. Application: engineering design reviews and field installs requiring proven hazardous-location protection.

FAQs
GRUE39 installs like other Condulet GRUE boxes designed for hazardous environments. Use the 1" trade size with compatible conduits and fittings, follow IF1707 installation instructions, and verify NEC/CEC compliance. The aluminum construction reduces weight during field assembly, while maintaining robust enclosure integrity and a reliable seal against dust and moisture ingress.
Yes. GRUE39 carries NEC hazardous location ratings consistent with Class I Division 1 and related Class II/III divisions, along with a NEMA 3/4 enclosure rating. This combination supports safe termination of cable connections in highly hazardous areas such as chemical processing and oil/gas facilities.
GRUE39 uses a 1" trade size compatible with standard Condulet GRUE fittings, reducing the need for adapters. The copper-free aluminum construction complements other GRUE components for streamlined assemblies, faster commissioning, and consistent performance across the Condulet line in hazardous environments.
GRUE39 aligns with NEC/CEC standards and hazardous location ratings (Class I/II/III). NEMA 3 and 4 enclosure protection further support code-compliant installations. UL-related certification pages exist for GRUE variants, with installation literature (IF1707) and datasheets available to support compliance documentation.
The copper-free aluminum enclosure is lighter to handle and reduces corrosion risk, cutting labor time during installation and maintenance. Its rugged protection minimizes seal failures in harsh environments, lowering downtime and extending service intervals in process plants and manufacturing lines.
