Conversions Tech: A 3/4” EMT Compression Connector Raintight is an electrical fitting used to securely connect 3/4” EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) conduit sections while providing a watertight seal. The compression connector utilizes a compression mechanism to tightly secure the conduit, ensuring a stable, leak-proof connection. The raintight feature ensures protection from moisture ingress, making it ideal for use in outdoor, wet, or damp locations where water resistance is essential.
Technical Specifications:
-
Material: Steel with zinc-electroplating (for strength and corrosion resistance)
-
Trade Sizes: Available in various sizes, typically ranging from ½inch to 2 inches to accommodate different EMT conduit diameters.
-
Wet Location Rated: Complies with National Electrical Code (NEC) standards for use in wet locations (2008 NEC 358.42 and 314.15)
-
Installation: Screw-on compression design for secure connection to electrical boxes or enclosures.
-
Knockout Seal: Includes a pre-installed knockout seal for a watertight connection.
-
Non-Insulated: Suitable for applications where wire protection from high temperatures is not required.
-
Listing: cULus Listed (ensures safety compliance in the US and Canada)
Application Use Cases:
-
Creating Raintight Seals: Designed for connecting EMT conduit to electrical boxes or enclosures in wet locations. The seal prevents water intrusion and protects electrical components.
-
Cost-Effective Solution: The non-insulated design offers a more economical option for applications where wire temperature protection is not a primary concern.
Product Features:
-
Steel Construction: Provides durability and mechanical protection for the conduit and enclosure.
-
