Quick Summary

Eaton GUAC26 DIN16 Condulet GUA conduit outlet box with cover safely houses wiring in hazardous locations. In compact control panels, installers often struggle with DIN rail mounting, terminal block organization, and access for maintenance. The enclosure carries NEC/CEC compliance and is rated for Class I and II hazardous locations, with Class III applicability, along with a sturdy NEMA 3, 4, 7, 9 protection profile. This combination delivers reliable protection in harsh environments while supporting efficient wiring and clear labeling. By combining a DIN rail mounted footprint with six terminal blocks and a 3 inch cover opening, it reduces installation time and field modifications, driving lower lifecycle costs and safer operations for process automation and industrial equipment.

FAQs

The GUAC26 DIN16 is designed for seamless DIN rail mounting and uses 3/4 inch trade-size conduit fittings. This compatibility streamlines panel integration, reduces the need for separate mounting brackets, and supports tidy wire management, making it ideal for standard automation cabinets and hazardous-location enclosures.
GUAC26 DIN16 carries NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 and Division 2, Class II, and Class III ratings, plus NEMA 3, 4, 7, 9 protections. These certifications ensure safe operation in hazardous environments and support regulatory acceptance for industrial installations in chemical processing, oil and gas, and mining.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, refining, mining, and wastewater treatment benefit most. The enclosure protects wiring and terminal blocks in harsh conditions, supports DIN rail-based control architectures, and helps maintain compliance with NEC/CEC while reducing maintenance downtime and risk.
Official resources include the IF 1730 installation sheet, the Crouse-Hinds GUA catalog page, and the Eaton specification sheet for GUAC26 DIN16. These documents provide mounting guidance, terminal block configurations, and wiring recommendations to ensure correct and compliant installation in hazardous locations.
The enclosure reduces field modification time, simplifies wiring with six terminal blocks, and lowers risk of wiring faults in risky environments. Combined with robust Feraloy alloy and safety certifications, maintenance is streamlined, downtime is minimized, and long-term reliability improves, delivering a favorable return on investment for hazardous-location panel installations.
