W-Series Junction BoxesApplication and Selection Applications: Junction boxes, designed for hazardous and non-hazardous locations, are used in a variety of industries to perform the following functions: • As a pull box • To provide enclosures for splices and taps • As a mounting box for multi-device control stations • For housing apparatus, instruments, and other devices Quick Selector Chart: Considerations for Selection: • Environmental location - the physical location of the junction box will call for proper construction of the box to meet National Electrical Code requirements and will affect the material and finish needed to meet weather and corrosive conditions, if present. • Number and size of conductors -combined with the function to be performed (i.e., splicing, pull box), determines the amount of space needed, and therefore, the required physical dimensions of the box. • Conduit layout - determines the number, size, and location of the conduit openings in the box. It will also determine the type of mounting required (i.e., flush or surface positioning of the box). • Flexibility required - if changes in the electrical system are anticipated, the box chosen should be easily adaptable, either by construction or size to the future system. Options and Accessories: A wide variety of options and accessories for special application are available for the various junction box families. These can be selected once the type of junction box has been determined. These options are shown on the individual pages. Some of the options available include: • Special covers • Hinged covers • Materials and finishes • Equipment mounting plates • Conduit or device openings • Corro-free™ epoxy powder coat -information available on request fLength and width are inside dimensions. Depth is inside dimension without cover. Drilled and Tapped Conduit Openings or Slip Holes: All W-Series cast-iron junction boxes may be ordered with drilled and tapped conduit openings or slip holes - subject to minimum spacing limitations. To order a box from the factory with conduit openings, consult factory. Copyright© 2013 Eaton’s Crouse-Hinds Business
