Eaton GUB06 Junction Box - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: GUB06
Quick Summary
GUB06 junction box is an explosion‑proof enclosure designed for hazardous locations, protecting field terminations in demanding industrial environments. In practice, engineers face downtime when enclosures fail to keep out dust, moisture, or corrosive gases, driving maintenance and replacement costs. This Eaton Crouse-Hinds solution carries NEC/CEC compliance and robust NEMA ratings for Class I, II, and III locations, including Divisions 1 and 2, with reliable performance through severe conditions. The enclosure’s feraloy iron alloy construction and sizable 8-1/2 x 10 x 6-7/8 inch footprint support easy wiring and long service life. By aligning with Eaton’s enclosure ecosystem, it simplifies installation, reduces spare-part needs, and delivers predictable compliance across facilities with hazardous-location requirements.

FAQs
When installing the GUB06 in hazardous locations, follow NEC/CEC requirements and UL certifications. Use IF 1172 installation instructions, select appropriate explosion-proof fittings, ensure proper sealing and grounding, and mount on compatible surfaces. Verify conduit entries, gasket integrity, and enclosure integrity after installation to maintain Class I/II/III, Div 1–2 ratings.
The GUB06 enclosure measures 8-1/2 inches deep by 10 inches high by 7-38/100 inches wide, with a 7 inch cover opening. It weighs 46.25 pounds, providing a robust footprint for reliable terminations while maintaining compatibility with standard installation fittings and space constraints.
Yes. The GUB06 is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards and is listed for hazardous-location use. It supports Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings, with NEMA 4, 7, and 9 protection. UL certification pages and Eaton datasheets confirm the listing and application scope.
Industries that require proven explosion-proof protection in hazardous locations benefit most, including oil and gas, chemical processing, mining, and heavy manufacturing. The GUB06’s feraloy iron alloy construction and certified enclosure ratings enable safe, compliant electrical terminations in harsh environments.
You can access the IF 1172 installation sheet, the Crouse-Hinds GUE/GUB catalog page, and the Eaton GUB06 datasheet from Eaton’s enclosure resources. UL certification pages also provide verification of listings. These documents support compliant field installations and help with procurement and planning.
