Eaton FSM3 Condulet FS device box - 1\" Trade, Malleable Iron

Part Number: FSM3
Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
FSM3

Quick Summary

FSM3 is a Condulet FS device box for protecting wiring terminations in control panels. Engineers often confront corrosion, insufficient enclosure space, and mounting incompatibilities in tight panels. Certified for ordinary locations under NEC/CEC, with CSA and UL certifications for metallic device boxes, ensures compliance. Leveraging malleable iron construction and a shallow depth, FSM3 delivers rugged, code-compliant protection with straightforward Eaton Crouse-Hinds integration for control panels and industrial enclosures. This combination reduces field rework, accelerates panel assembly, and supports long-term reliability in harsh environments. With 1\" trade size, single-gang configuration, and compatibility with standard FS covers, FSM3 streamlines installation and maintenance workflows for electrical teams. Its rugged profile also aids durability in cabinet interiors and wall-mounted installations.

Feature: Malleable iron construction delivers rugged, impact-resistant protection that stands up to routine handling, chemical exposure, and vibration common in busy manufacturing cells. Business Impact: By resisting deformation and corrosion, the FSM3 reduces replacement cycles, lowers maintenance costs, and improves overall panel reliability over the equipment lifecycle. Application: Install in ordinary-location control panels requiring strong mechanical protection within a shallow, single-gang footprint and a 1 inch trade size, without compromising accessibility. Feature: Shallow depth and compact footprint maximize usable cabinet space while preserving cable routing clarity and access to terminations. Business Impact: This enables faster wiring, fewer clearance issues during installation, and improved heat management within crowded panels. Application: Ideal for retrofits or new builds where panel depth is constrained yet wiring density remains high in exposed enclosures. Feature: 1 inch trade size, single-gang configuration aligns with the Condulet FS family, minimizing surprises during device mounting and cover selection. Business Impact: Reduces stockouts and simplifies procurement by reusing existing FS covers and hardware across multiple installations. Application: Great for broad deployments in control rooms and field installations where standardization accelerates commissioning. Feature: Certifications and conformity. Business Impact: NEC/CEC alignment with CSA and UL listings validates the device box for non-hazardous locations and cross-border use. Application: Use in facilities that require verified metallic device boxes for control circuits and safety validations. Feature: FS family compatibility and lifecycle efficiency. Business Impact: Seamless compatibility with Eaton Crouse-Hinds FS covers and accessories ensures consistent enclosure presentation. Application: Suitable for ongoing programs that standardize FS device boxes across machines and panels.
