Eaton Specification Sheet - GUB6193 1 20
Top conduit opening provides clean, protected cable entries for metering runs, reducing field wiring time and potential ingress. This simplifies installations in tight panel spaces and when retrofitting existing meters, delivering measurable uptime gains and safer wiring practices. Feraloy iron alloy construction delivers rugged durability in harsh industrial environments, resisting impact and heat while maintaining enclosure integrity. The material choice directly lowers maintenance cycles and helps protect critical metering components in chemical plants, refineries, and mining operations. Mounting plate for standard meters allows quick alignment and secure mounting, enabling faster project turnovers and fewer field fabrication steps. Compatibility with GUB06 basic housing supports modular expansion and retrofit strategies, reducing total cost of ownership. Certification suite (NEC/CEC IEC, hazardous location ratings, NEMA 3/7/9/12) provides compliance confidence; this minimizes inspection issues and delays. 7-11/16" maximum depth accommodates meters with protrusions, avoiding the need for custom enclosures and simplifying stock management.

FAQs
GUB6193 1 20 is designed as a housing with a mounting plate for standard meters and is used with the GUB06 basic housing. It supports top conduit entries, 3/4" trade size, and aligns with standard meter configurations; installation typically requires minimal field fabrication, enabling faster retrofits and consistent mounting alignment.
The enclosure is certified for Hazardous/Classified Locations under NEC/CEC IEC standards, with Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, plus NEMA ratings 3, 7, 9, 12. These certifications ensure safe operation in explosive atmospheres and harsh environments like refineries, chemical plants, and mining sites.
Yes. The GUB6193 1 20 instrument housing is purpose-built for hazardous locations and meter enclosures, featuring a robust Feraloy iron alloy body, top conduit opening, and compatibility with standard meters. It supports safe metering in oil and gas facilities, refineries, and other high-risk environments when used with the GUB06 base.
Consider NEC/CEC IEC compliance, Class I/II/III hazardous location approvals, and NEMA ratings 3, 7, 9, 12. UL certification is available for explosionproof instrumentation, ensuring safe operation where metering equipment faces combustible atmospheres, with installation guidance provided by IF 1112 for proper mounting and wiring.
By using a rugged GUB housing with mounting plate, you reduce maintenance intervals due to durable materials and fewer field fabrication steps. The pre-certified enclosure minimizes regulatory review time, lowers retrofit costs, and shortens project timelines, delivering faster meter deployments and predictable lifecycle costs in hazardous area facilities.
