Eaton Crouse-Hinds U17 conduit body - NEMA 3 4 12

Material and construction: The U17 conduit outlet body is cast in Feraloy iron alloy, delivering robust strength and corrosion resistance for non-hazardous environments. This reduces maintenance cycles and extends service life in busy industrial facilities where metal fittings face impact and exposure. It is ideal for Form 7 conduit bodies in factory floors, machine enclosures, and outdoor panels in Ordinary Locations. Form 7 geometry and trade size: The U-shaped Form 7 design provides clear access for pulling wires through 1/2" conduit, enabling faster installations and fewer field adjustments. The compact profile suits tight enclosures and crowded panels, streamlining wiring layouts in control cabinets and equipment rooms. Compliance and protection: NEMA ratings 3, 4, and 12, paired with NEC/CEC standards, ensure protection against dust, water ingress, and corrosion in non-hazardous environments. This reduces compliance risk during audits and simplifies maintenance planning for facilities and city infrastructure projects. Dimensions and installation footprint: At 7.13 in long, 3.69 in high, and 1.5 in wide with a weight of 1.55 lb, the U17 fits standard tool stowages and minimizes space encroachment in panels. This supports retrofits and new builds alike, keeping cubic capacity intact. Compatibility and procurement support: Catalog number U17 and UPC 662276465800 align with Eaton’s Form 7 catalog pages and downloadable CAD resources, accelerating design reviews. Availability of 3D drawings, catalogs, and installation sheets (IF 863) helps engineers verify fit before purchase and reduces field rework. Practical guidance and field readiness: The U17 pairs with common Form 7 conduit fittings and fixtures, and the IF 863 wire-pulling instruction is readily accessible to technicians, smoothing training and onboarding for maintenance teams.
