Quick Summary

The Eaton Crouse-Hinds GUAG8775 junction box provides rugged, explosion-proof enclosures for wiring in hazardous locations. In challenging plants, achieving safe terminations while maintaining regulatory compliance is a persistent pain point. It carries NEC/CEC conformity with Hazardous/Classified Locations ratings, including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II, and Class III. Designed for quick, secure field terminations and reliable long-term operation, it supports efficient maintenance and lower lifecycle costs. Secondary benefits include quick installation with union hubs and a robust Feraloy iron alloy housing that stands up to corrosion and impacts. For design engineers, this means reduced wiring time, predictable fit, and easier regulatory documentation.

Feature: Three-hub design with bottom hubs sized 3/4 inch and a top hub of 1 inch, all enclosed in a rugged Feraloy iron alloy housing. Business Impact: This versatility simplifies cable routing and helps maintain a tight seal in damp or dusty environments, reducing the risk of moisture ingress and arc pathways. Application: Ideal for hazardous-location control panels and junctions in chemical plants, refineries, and heavy manufacturing where space is constrained. Feature: Union hubs provide field configurability and straightforward re-termination without disassembly. Business Impact: Shortens installation time, lowers labor costs, and minimizes downtime during upgrades or maintenance. Application: Useful when retrofit projects require rapid adaptation to changing wiring schemes in Class I/II/III zones. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and explicit hazardous-area ratings (Class I Division 1 & 2; Class II Division 1 & 2; Class III) ensure regulatory alignment. Business Impact: Streamlines approvals, reduces inspection cycles, and lowers risk of non-compliance penalties. Application: North American industrial facilities rely on this enclosure for safety-critical terminations. Feature: Compact footprint with measured dimensions of 7.75 in length, 4.5 in height, and 3.5 in width, weighing 5.65 lb. Business Impact: Fits into tight equipment bays, simplifies layout planning, and reduces shipping and handling costs. Application: Suitable for compact control cabinets and restricted installation spaces. Feature: Durable Feraloy iron alloy housing delivers rugged resistance to impact and corrosion. Business Impact: Improves lifecycle reliability in harsh environments, reducing maintenance cycles and replacement frequency. Application: Preferred in mining, chemical processing, and oil & gas facilities where sustained performance matters.

FAQs

When installing GUAG8775, use appropriate sealing practices and follow NEC/CEC guidance for hazardous locations. Plan for the three-hub arrangement (bottom 3/4" and top 1") to accommodate your wiring scheme, and ensure any field terminations occur within the union hub design to facilitate future maintenance. Verify clearance and enclosure integrity in Class I/II/III zones to maintain compliance.
Yes. GUAG8775 supports a three-hub configuration with bottom hubs sized at 3/4 inch and a top hub sized at 1 inch. The union-hub design simplifies field modifications, enabling quicker re-termination and reduced downtime during wiring changes in hazardous environments.
GUAG8775 carries NEC/CEC conformity with hazardous area classifications, including Class I, Division 1 and Division 2; Class II, Division 1 and Division 2; and Class III. It is rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations, aligning with North American safety standards and facilitating compliant installations in refineries, chemical plants, and similar facilities.
The rugged Feraloy iron alloy housing, explosion-proof construction, and union hubs contribute to long-term reliability by resisting impact and corrosion and enabling rapid maintenance access. With compliant NEC/CEC ratings, inspections are streamlined, downtime is reduced during terminations or upgrades, and lifecycle costs are lowered due to fewer component replacements.
GUAG8775 measures 7.75 inches in length, 4.5 inches in height, and 3.5 inches in width, with a weight of 5.65 pounds. These dimensions support compact installation in tight spaces and help with BOM planning and shipping logistics, while ensuring the enclosure can house multiple cables through the 3 hubs (bottom 3/4" and top 1").
