Eaton Specification Sheet - GUAC260
3/4 inch trade size provides direct conduit termination without adapters, lowering installation time and minimizing error-prone field modifications. Reduced labor and commissioning time leads to lower project costs and faster startup, making it ideal for control panels and equipment enclosures in chemical plants and oil & gas facilities where 3/4" conduits are common. Feraloy iron alloy offers rugged strength and corrosion resistance in harsh environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance costs. Its C-shaped body design enables easy mounting around conduit runs, simplifying cover alignment and fitment, which reduces commissioning time in space-constrained electrical rooms. The unit’s NEC/CEC standards compliance and clearly defined hazardous location ratings (Class I Division 1 and 2; Class II Division 1 and 2; Class III) align with audits and safety programs, while UL documentation supports procurement reliability and traceability. Compact dimensions—5.25 in length, 3.5 in height, 2 in width—and a weight of 1.95 lb enable installation in tight spaces without compromising protection. Compatibility with the GUA family reduces the number of unique parts in stock, lowering obsolescence risk and improving maintenance planning. Overall, GUAC260 delivers faster installation, longer lifecycle, and easier regulatory alignment for engineers and procurement teams.
