Eaton 652RT Raintight Compression Connector - NEC/CEC
Part Number: 652RT
Quick Summary
652RT raintight compression connector from Eaton provides secure EMT terminations for weather-exposed enclosures. Installers face moisture ingress and loosening joints in harsh environments, but this connector delivers reliable rain-tight performance with straightforward compression. It carries NEC/CEC compliance and UL listings for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, while the steel body resists corrosion in damp settings. By standardizing on this 1 in straight connector, design reviews, procurement, and field labor are streamlined, reducing rework and warranty issues. In addition to robust mechanical strength, it enables rapid installations in control panels and outdoor enclosures, aligning with typical projects in industrial automation, HVAC, and process equipment installations.

FAQs
Yes. The 652RT is designed for EMT conduits with a 1 inch trade size and uses a threadless compression method. To install, cut the EMT to length, insert into the connector, and tighten the compression to achieve a raintight seal. Ensure the joint is clean and free of debris before tightening to avoid leaks.
652RT carries NEC/CEC standards compliance and an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous location rating, along with UL listings for EMT raintight connectors. These certifications support compliance in most non-hazardous industrial environments, simplify inspection processes, and help meet local code requirements for weatherized installations.
The 652RT excels in outdoor and damp environments, such as control panels, outdoor equipment housings, and process automation enclosures. Its raintight, steel, non-insulated design provides reliable terminations for 1" EMT runs in manufacturing plants, HVAC installations, and other industrial facilities where moisture resistance and durability matter.
Official documentation includes Eaton’s 652RT specification sheet and the Crouse-Hinds raintight catalog pages. UL certification reports for EMT raintight fittings are also available. For quick reference, consult Eaton’s specification sheet (652RT.pdf) and the Crouse-Hinds catalog page on raintight connectors.
The 652RT’s robust steel construction and raintight seal reduce field maintenance due to moisture ingress, minimizing rework and warranty issues. Its fast, threadless compression installation lowers labor costs on multi-run installations, contributing to shorter project timelines and a lower total cost of ownership in long-term operations.
