TURCK has recently launched the new 7/8-16UN “minifast” explosion-proof feed-through receptacle, which is CSA certified as a secondary conduit seal.

This quick-disconnect solution can serve as a secondary conduit seal to prevent gas migration or as a boundary seal, when used with a TURCK CSA certified cordset.

The receptacle may be applied in Class I, Division 2 locations without the use of intrinsically safe circuits or in Class I, Division 1 locations with intrinsically safe circuits.

Fully potted in a durable 316 stainless steel housing, the explosion-proof feed-through receptacle is designed to withstand 2000 psi of pressure.

It also provides IEC IP67 protection against liquid ingress when a mating connector is attached. The receptacle installs directly into 1/2-14NPT threaded conduit entries and is rated for 600V and 9A.

When used as a secondary conduit seal, the receptacle is limited to 30V and 600 mA.
