Eaton Crouse-Hinds PLG28 conduit plug - Hazardous Locations
Part Number: PLG28
Quick Summary
PLG28 conduit plug is a rugged recessed steel fitting that seals Rigid/IMC conduit in hazardous locations. Engineers often struggle to maintain compliance and minimize unplanned downtime when fittings fail in explosive atmospheres. This PLG28 carries NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous location ratings including Class I Division 1 & 2, Class II Division 1 & 2, and Class III, helping you meet regulatory requirements. Its 1/4\" trade size, steel construction, and recessed design streamline installation while delivering durable, long-term performance. Coupled with standard rigid/IMC conduit and Eaton's certification literature, it offers predictable procurement and reduced risk for OEMs and industrial facilities.

Eaton Specification Sheet - PLG28
Feature: Conduit compatibility with Rigid/IMC and a 1/4\" trade size in a steel body. Business Impact: Simplifies field installs, minimizes compatibility errors, and reduces inventory variety, which lowers project lead times. Application: Ideal for hazardous-location installations in chemical plants, oil & gas facilities, and industrial automation setups that require robust sealing. Feature: Recessed body design minimizes snag hazards and helps maintain enclosure integrity. Business Impact: Improves safety during maintenance and reduces damage from accidental contact, leading to fewer costly repairs. Application: Suitable for panel and conduit fitting alongside flush-mounted devices in explosive atmospheres where a clean, low-profile interface is needed. Feature: Durable steel construction with measured dimensions—4.5 in length, 4 in height, 3 in width—and a weight of 0.95 lb. Business Impact: Delivers long service life in harsh environments and lowers replacement frequency and maintenance cost. Application: Works in tight installations inside control panels and conduit runs in refineries, chemical plants, and power facilities. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and explicit hazardous-location ratings (Class I Div 1 & 2, Class II Div 1 & 2, Class III). Business Impact: Streamlines regulatory approvals and reduces risk of noncompliance across multi-site operations. Application: Suitable for projects requiring certified fittings for hazardous areas under local and international codes. Feature: Documentation and catalog support including UL/IEC certification references and Eaton's PLG28 datasheet pages. Business Impact: Enables faster procurement, accurate specification validation, and consistent installation practices. Application: Ideal for engineering spec packs and procurement teams managing explosion-protected conduit fittings in industrial environments.
