Eaton CD2 SA Drain - Copper-free Aluminum, NEC/CEC
Part Number: CD2 SA
Quick Summary
Eaton CD2 SA drain is a copper-free aluminum outlet drain designed for ordinary-location electrical installations in industrial facilities. Engineers often contend with corrosion, weight, and regulatory compliance when selecting drainage components, which slows project timelines. This drain carries NEC/CEC compliance, UL certification, and an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location rating to simplify approvals. In practice, the copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and maintenance costs while delivering reliable drainage in 3/4" systems, reinforcing project schedules. This product integrates with the CD series and supports fast installation, lifecycle performance, and compliance-driven procurement. Sharing field experience from installation teams, this drain reduces field adjustments and simplifies inventory with a standard 3/4 inch trade size. These attributes translate to lower total cost of ownership, faster commissioning, and longer service life in demanding industrial environments.

Eaton Specification Sheet - CD2 SA
Copper-free aluminum offers superior corrosion resistance while reducing weight compared with traditional copper. This combination improves durability in wet, dusty industrial environments where drainage components face harsh conditions. Using the standard 3/4 inch trade size keeps sourcing straightforward and minimizes compatibility issues with existing CD fittings. In practice, these attributes translate to lower total cost of ownership and shorter commissioning times.The CD2 SA maintains a compact footprint with 1.5 inch depth, 2.01 inch height, and 1.5 inch width, allowing installation in tight spaces along cable trays and conduits. At about 0.1 pound, it reduces handling effort during transport and mounting, especially on elevated or constrained sites. The copper-free aluminum body resists deformation during fastening, helping maintain seal integrity over service life. These physical traits collectively reduce field rework and accelerate installation without sacrificing durability.Regulatory alignment is a key benefit, with NEC/CEC standards supporting cross-border applicability and UL certification backing routine audits. The Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location rating clarifies permitted environments, simplifying risk assessments and safety planning for facility managers. These certifications mitigate compliance risks and improve procurement confidence across teams. Together, they enable consistent drainage performance in non-hazardous industrial spaces.Compatibility with Eaton Crouse-Hinds CD series ensures easy cataloging, quoting, and stocking, reducing ordering errors. The CD2 SA catalog number and UPC 782274058825 enable precise order placement and traceability through the supply chain. Clear documentation of material, size, and performance data supports RFQs and facilitates side-by-side supplier comparisons. End users benefit from faster project wins and smoother maintenance planning.

FAQs
The CD2 SA drain is designed for 3/4 inch trade size installations within ordinary-location environments. Begin by confirming the conduit and CD-series mounting points align with standard fittings. Position the drain to allow unobstructed drainage and secure with appropriate clamps or mounting hardware. The copper-free aluminum construction simplifies handling and reduces weight during installation, contributing to faster commissioning and fewer field adjustments.
CD2 SA carries NEC/CEC standards, UL certification, and an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Location rating. These certifications ensure cross-border regulatory compatibility, support safety and inspection processes, and clarify where the drain can be deployed. For procurement and compliance teams, this reduces approval cycles and aligns with maintenance programs that rely on standard, UL-listed components.
Yes. The CD2 SA is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, making it suitable for most non-hazardous plant floors, control rooms, and service areas. Its copper-free aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and lower weight, contributing to reliable performance without requiring special environmental protections or hazardous-area considerations. Always verify local code applicability and facility-specific requirements during procurement.
Key specs include a 1.5 inch depth, 2.01 inch height, 1.5 inch width, and a weight of about 0.1 lb. It uses a 3/4 inch trade size and catalogs under CD2 SA, UPC 782274058825. The material is copper-free aluminum. These details aid accurate RFQs and ensure compatibility with existing CD-series drainage components in your facility layout.
Compared with copper-based drains, the CD2 SA's copper-free aluminum construction offers reduced weight, better corrosion resistance in ordinary locations, and easier handling during installation. These factors translate to lower maintenance costs, fewer field reworks, and shorter downtime, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership over the product's service life in typical industrial settings.
