FAQs
The NCDC12 is designed to be used with the MSR1 or MSR2 suffix, ensuring correct labeling and wiring schemes. When planning a control panel, verify suffix compatibility to prevent miswiring and to maintain compliant documentation. This compatibility simplifies field wiring, reduces rework, and aligns with Eaton Crouse-Hinds’ hazardous-location product family.
NCDC12 provides two circuits in a through-feed enclosure with a 1/2 inch trade size. It carries NEMA ratings 7, 3, 12, and 4X and NEC Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location certification, making it suitable for classified areas and demanding industrial environments where moisture and dust protection are required.
Yes. With NEC Class I, Division 2 certification and a NEMA 7/3/12/4X enclosure rating, NCDC12 is well suited for oil, gas, chemical, and similar hazardous environments. Its rugged construction and through-feed design support reliable control panel installations in such locations while maintaining compliance.
NCDC12 meets NEC/CEC standards and NEC Class I, Division 2 ratings, along with NEMA ratings 7, 3, 12, 4X. These certifications confirm suitability for hazardous/classified locations and ensure safe, code-compliant installations in industrial facilities, reducing audit concerns and facilitating regulatory approvals during project execution.
Through-feed wiring and the two-circuit configuration streamline panel assembly and service. MSR suffix compatibility minimizes wiring errors, lowering commissioning and maintenance time. The rugged NEMA 7/3/12/4X enclosure minimizes maintenance intervals, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership in harsh environments.
