Eaton Crouse-Hinds GUR1 SA Conduit Outlet Box - NEMA 4

Copper-free aluminum construction in the GUR1 SA Condulet dramatically reduces weight without sacrificing strength, improving handling during field installs. This material choice also enhances corrosion resistance in harsh environments typical of chemical and oil & gas facilities. The result is a durable enclosure that withstands vibration, heat, and moisture while keeping installation costs predictable. This combination yields a viable lifecycle cost for plants operating under strict maintenance regimes. 1/2" trade size ensures compatibility with standard conduit components, enabling rapid wiring and consistent terminations across projects. The 1/2" sizing also minimizes the need for adapters and simplifies stock management for maintenance teams. Cover included with the GUR1 SA provides a complete weatherproof seal and dust protection right out of the box, reducing field resealing tasks and risk of moisture ingress. Compliance and safety are reinforced by NEC/CEC alignment and NEMA 4 enclosure ratings, supporting Class I Division 1 and Zone 1 applications while simplifying regulatory audits. This enclosure also aligns with broader North American electrical standards, helping engineering teams certify installations faster. With a compact footprint (4.13 in length and height, 2.68 in width) and a weight of 1.55 lb, the GUR1 SA fits tight spaces and reduces install fatigue. The aluminum body resists bending and corrosion under vibration, supporting long-term reliability. Access to Eaton’s technical data, UL certification reports, and installation guides supports faster project validation, easier maintenance planning, and predictable lifecycle cost across hazardous-location deployments. The availability of the GUR explosion-proof certification page helps ensure compliance during supplier audits. Industry context: In chemical processing and oil and gas, copper-free aluminum enclosures support sustainability goals while meeting rigorous grounding and bonding practices. The rugged build is well suited for outdoor installations and corrosive atmospheres. Common objections about weight or installation complexity are addressed by the GUR1 SA with a light yet rugged aluminum body and simple cover integration, reducing crane time, rewiring effort, and rework. Field teams appreciate the included cover that streamlines sealing and reduces mismatch issues. Warranty and serviceability considerations: corrosion-resistant materials, standard 1/2 inch fittings, and readily available spare parts translate to lower maintenance overhead and faster downtime recovery.
