FAQs
The LTB50G is designed for straight FMC conduit runs and accepts 1/2" trade-size conductors. When installing, align the connector with the FMC conduit, ensure proper sealing against moisture ingress, and torque the fitting to the manufacturer’s specification. Use the aluminum ground lug to establish a solid grounding path and verify that the lug accommodates #4–14 AWG conductors. This approach minimizes leakage paths and ensures reliable earth continuity in hazardous areas.
LTB50G carries NEC/CEC compliance with hazardous location ratings including Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1, Class II Division 2, and Class III. It also features area classification for hazardous/classified locations and UL certification for metallic liquidtight fittings. These certifications support safe operation in chemical, oil, gas, and mining environments while simplifying cross-border approvals.
Yes. LTB50G includes an aluminum ground lug designed for reliable grounding while keeping weight low. The lug size supports #4–14 AWG conductors, which matches common automation and control wiring used in industrial panels. This compatibility ensures a secure, code-compliant ground connection without the need for adapters or splices.
The LTB50G measures 1.75 inches in length, 2 inches in height, and 1.25 inches in width, with a device weight of approximately 0.2 pounds. This compact footprint simplifies enclosure packing, reduces panel intrusion, and helps maintain clearances in tight electrical cabinets or hazardous-area installations.
LT B50G delivers durable protection for FMC conduit in harsh locations, reducing maintenance and rework costs thanks to its insulated body and robust ground connection. Compliance with NEC/CEC and UL certification lowers risk of regulatory delays, while simplified installation saves labor costs. Over time, the enhanced reliability translates to fewer field failures and safer, more predictable operation.
