Eaton GUAC36 Condulet GUA Outlet Box - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: GUAC36
Quick Summary
GUAC36 Condulet GUA conduit outlet box provides rugged protection for field terminations in hazardous locations. Engineers often struggle to balance safety, regulatory compliance, and fast field installs on tight project timelines. This enclosure carries NEC/CEC compliance with hazardous-location ratings and NEMA protections for environments rated 3, 4, 7, and 9, giving it broad applicability in industrial settings. By combining a 1 inch trade size with a 3 inch cover opening and a Feraloy iron alloy body, it delivers reliable protection against shocks, contamination, and ignition sources. Designed for Condulet GUA compatibility, it streamlines installation, reduces rework, and supports efficient maintenance in oil, gas, chemical, and mining facilities.

Feature: Feraloy iron alloy body delivers high strength and corrosion resistance, reducing replacement costs in harsh environments. This material performs reliably in oil, gas, chemical processing, and mining facilities where ignition risk and mechanical wear are concerns. Feature: 1 inch trade size terminals and 3 inch cover opening simplify field wiring and reduce labor time during installation, with compatible fittings available from common conduit suppliers. In practice, this translates to faster panel commissioning and lower on-site labor costs. Feature: Hazardous Locations and NEC/CEC compliance, including Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; Class III, plus UL certification, give engineers confidence in regulatory alignment and reduce the need for multiple enclosures across sites and helping meet strict safety and regulatory requirements. Feature: NEMA ratings 3, 4, 7, 9 provide protection against dust, water ingress, and special hazard conditions, enabling safer operation in outdoor, washdown, or high-hazard environments. Feature: Compact footprint (5.5 in L x 3.5 in H x 2.31 in W) and 3.3 lb weight support easier cabinet integration and minimized enclosure footprint, which lowers housing and installation costs. Feature: Comprehensive documentation and compatibility with Condulet GUA families (IF 1730 instruction sheets and the GUAC36 specification) simplify procurement, design validation, and field support for installers and maintenance teams.

FAQs
To install GUAC36, follow the IF 1730 installation sheet for GUA condulet outlet boxes and attach a 1 inch trade-size conduit using standard fittings. Mount the enclosure to a suitable support, seal the cover gasket properly, and torque fasteners to the recommended values. Verify enclosure integrity and conduct a final NEC/CEC compliance check before energizing the circuit.
Yes. GUAC36 is designed around a 1 inch trade-size interface and a 3 inch cover opening, compatible with the Eaton Crouse-Hinds Condulet GUA family. Use recommended fittings from the GUA line and refer to the GUAC36 specification for mounting patterns and enclosure alignment to ensure a secure, code-compliant installation.
GUAC36 carries NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA ratings 3, 4, 7, 9, along with hazardous-location classifications (Class I, II, III). These certifications confirm suitability for hazardous locations, weather exposure, and washdown environments, reducing the need for multiple enclosures across sites and helping meet strict safety and regulatory requirements.
GUAC36 is well suited for oil/gas facilities, chemical processing plants, mining operations, and other harsh environments where dust, water ingress, and ignition sources must be controlled. Its Feraloy iron alloy body and Hazardous/Classified Location ratings enable reliable operation in challenging atmospheres while supporting compliance with NEC/CEC.
From a maintenance and ROI perspective, GUAC36 offers long service life due to corrosion resistance, and fewer field reworks thanks to standardized Condulet GUA compatibility. The upfront investment is offset by lower replacement costs, faster installation, and improved safety compliance, delivering tangible savings across project lifecycles in hazardous installations.
