EGS Conduit Seals

Category: Worker Health & Safety > Engineering Controls > Safe Storage
Reference # : Model No : N/A

The EGS Conduit Seal is a lightweight, easy-to-install design that prevents moisture and liquids from penetrating instrument housings or junction boxes from attaching conduits. Its anatomy consists of two stainless steel housings that are assembled with a hex nut. The housings contain a grommet. The wires are fed through the grommet’s specially sized holes. The housings are tightened using the hex nut, which compresses the grommet and creates the seal.

Benefits

• Easy installation/simple assembly procedures.
• Multi-conductor capability up to six #12 or #14 AWG, or up to eight #16 or #18 AWG.
• Avoids twisting of lead wire.
• Small and lightweight, less than 1 lb.
• Utilizes existing field wire, no splicing.
• No special tools or preassembly required.
• No maintenance.
• Coarse threads.
• Easy interface with device and conduit.
• Used on variety of devices such as solenoid valves, transmitters, RTDs, TCs, pressure/limit/level/position switches, etc.
• Compatible with ALARA considerations.

Limitations

• Qualified life: 40 years at 150°F (65°C).
• Radiation: 2E8 rads gamma.
• Seismic: 6.0g ZPA.
• LOCA: tested to 415ºF (212°C) and 100 psig (790.8 kPa)
