Crouse-Hinds EYS216 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the EYS sealing fitting mount vertically or horizontally?
Vertical. The EYS covered here is the vertical-outlet configuration, intended for a conduit run going up or down rather than across. If your run is horizontal, you need the horizontal-outlet version of the sealing fitting instead, since the compound has to be poured and retained correctly for the seal to form.
2) What is the difference between Crouse-Hinds EYS101 and EYS216?
They are two different sizes/series of the same vertical-outlet sealing fitting: EYS101 is the 46 Series and EYS216 is the 16 Series. Both are the Feraloy iron alloy / ductile iron body. Order by the exact part number, since the fitting has to match the trade size of the conduit it is being installed in.
3) What is a Crouse-Hinds EYS conduit sealing fitting used for?
The EYS is a conduit sealing fitting, installed in a rigid conduit run and filled with sealing compound to block the passage of gases, vapors and flames through the raceway. The EYS body is Feraloy iron alloy / ductile iron. It is a vertical-outlet style, meaning the fill opening is oriented for installation in a vertical conduit run.
4) Do I need anything besides the EYS fitting itself to complete the seal?
Yes. A sealing fitting is only a housing. You also need sealing compound and fiber (damming material) to pack around the conductors before the compound is poured. The EYS body ships as the fitting; the compound and fiber are ordered separately.
5) Is a Feraloy iron alloy body suitable for a corrosive or outdoor industrial area?
The EYS uses a Feraloy iron alloy / ductile iron body, which is the standard material for threaded rigid conduit fittings in industrial and outdoor runs. For heavily corrosive process areas, buyers often specify a copper-free aluminum or an additional coating instead, so check what the drawing calls out for that area.
