FAQs
When installing the LTK3845, ensure FMC conduit alignment matches the 45° angle, tighten to manufacturer torque specs, and verify non-insulated malleable iron body seating. Confirm the area classification and enclosure integrity, using appropriate seals and gaskets as specified. This reduces moisture ingress and maintains hazardous-location compliance during retrofit or new builds.
Key specs include a 45° angle connector, 3/8" trade size, FMC conduit type, malleable iron construction, and a non-insulated body. It weighs 0.22 lb with dimensions around 2.25 in length and 2.13 in height/width. It is designed as a low-profile fitting suitable for hazardous-classified locations under NEC/CEC standards.
Yes. The LTK3845 carries NEC hazardous-location ratings including Class I, Division 2, as well as Class II Division 1 and Class II Division 2, plus Class III. This makes it appropriate for electrical installations in hazardous industrial environments, such as chemical processing plants and oil and gas facilities, where containment and protection are critical.
The LTK3845 complies with NEC/CEC standards and is rated for Class I Division 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III locations. It also carries Canadian certification listings and UL-related documentation, supporting cross-border procurement and installation in US and Canadian facilities.
The LTK3845 reduces installation time due to its compact, low-profile design and fewer adapters, lowering labor costs. Its malleable iron, non-insulated body withstands tough environments, reducing replacement cycles. Overall, it improves system reliability in hazardous locations, minimizes downtime, and simplifies compliance documentation for ongoing maintenance programs.
