Quick Summary
GUB01 SA ATEX junction box is an explosion-proof enclosure that protects field connections in hazardous locations. Engineers often struggle with finding housings that combine reliable ATEX/IECEx compliance with easy access and install efficiency. This enclosure carries ATEX, IECEx, and NEC/CEC standards, plus IP66 and NEMA 4/7/9 ratings to support global compliance. Its feraloy iron alloy construction, 6.5 in depth, 7 in height, and 5.75 in width provide a compact footprint for tight installations while maintaining rugged protection. The 5-3/8 in cover opening accommodates standard wiring, reducing retrofit time and maintenance cost for oil & gas, chemical, and mining applications.

FAQs
Plan for mounting in hazardous locations with ATEX/IECEx compliance, using standard conduit and fittings compatible with the 5-3/8 in cover opening. Ensure proper gasket seating and secure lid fasteners to maintain IP66 integrity. The unit weighs 8.7 lb, so use appropriate support during wall or enclosure mounting to avoid stress on terminations.
The GUB01 SA ATEX carries ATEX and IECEx certifications, plus NEC/CEC standards, along with IP66 and NEMA 4/7/9 ratings. This indicates suitability for hazardous/classified locations and resilience in dust, water ingress, and harsh mechanical conditions. It supports global deployments in chemical, oil & gas, and mining sectors.
Yes. With ATEX/IECEx compliance, IP66 protection, and NEMA ratings, the enclosure is designed for hazardous-location environments such as oil & gas upstream/downstream facilities and chemical processing plants. The feraloy iron alloy further improves durability against corrosive atmospheres found in these industries.
Compared with non-ATEX housings, this unit offers explosion-proof certification, making it suitable for hazardous locations. Its IP66 and NEMA 4/7/9 ratings provide robust ingress protection, ensuring reliable operation in washdown zones and outdoor installations where non-ATEX enclosures would be non-compliant.
The robust ATEX/IECEx certification coupled with IP66/NEMA protection reduces regulatory risk and maintenance downtime by protecting terminations from dust, water, and impact. While upfront costs may be higher, long-term savings come from fewer replacements, easier compliance audits, and lower incident-related downtime in hazardous environments.
