Copper-free aluminum construction provides durable enclosure protection with excellent corrosion resistance in demanding environments. This material choice also reduces weight, improving handling during installation and lowering shipping costs on multi-box assemblies. In hazardous-area applications, copper-free aluminum minimizes maintenance cycles and avoids copper-induced galvanic corrosion when dissimilar metals are present, translating into lower lifecycle costs and fewer field service calls. It also supports gasket sealing and compatibility with the Condulet family hardware, simplifying code-compliant installations across varied facilities. Compact form factor with a 3/4 in trade size and 3 in cover opening supports versatile wiring in tight spaces. Business impact: reduces panel cutouts and simplifies conduit planning, enabling faster installs and fewer on-site modifications. Application: ideal for compact control panels, instrument enclosures, and hazardous-location installations where space is at a premium. The form factor also enables clean stacking with adjacent boxes while maintaining NEC fill calculations. D-shaped Condulet GUA form with 3/4 in trade size integrates readily with Eaton’s Condulet ecosystem. Business impact: reduces spare parts variety and minimizes training time for technicians, while guaranteeing consistent mounting interfaces. Application: simplifies retrofits and new builds by ensuring a familiar fit across the Condulet line and standard conduit entries. The shared geometry also supports straightforward field modifications in restricted spaces. NEC/CEC compliance and Hazardous/Classified Locations rating; Business impact: supports safer installations and regulator-ready documentation, reducing project risk and rework. Application: preferred choice for facilities with Class I and Class II areas, where protective enclosures and strict cable management are mandatory. The ratings align with UL certification expectations and facilitate integration into UL-listed assemblies. NEMA ratings 3, 4, 7, 9 provide versatile environmental protection; Business impact: broad deployment from indoors to harsh outdoors, reducing the need for multiple enclosure types. Application: fits in wet, dusty, or explosive-installation sites where reliable ingress protection is essential. This combination of NEMA ratings supports long service life in demanding industrial environments and minimizes maintenance.
