Killark products are designed to go where our customers need them to be. From the searing heat of Saudi Arabia, where heat and humidity descend like a hammer in the late afternoon, and the heat index often breaking +60 °C. To the freezing conditions of the Mayo Yukon, Canada, where it gets so cold that bare skin would instantly freeze to exposed metal in the -62 °C temperatures.
Safety and reliability has been the cornerstone of our business for almost a century.

Features
Threaded for rigid conduit or IMC
Tapered threads (NPT)
Strong and durable construction
Applications
When installed in the top of an enclosure, these fittings act as breathers which allows air flow through the enclosure. Bottom installations permit water from condensation to drain from the enclosure continuously.
The drains and breathers are offered in a variety of hub sizes, 1/4, 3/8 & 1/2 inch NPT and metric M16 & M20.
Applications
When installed in the bottom of a thin wall enclosure the KDE allows water from condensation to drain continuously out of the enclosure. The drain breathers are installed through clearance holes and held secured
with a internal locknut. The silicone external o ring makes a hose down tight seal.
Features
Silicone o-ring supplied as standard and suitable for use in a -55°C to +80°C temperature range.
Internal 316 stainless steel locknut supplied as standard. When tighten to the proper torque the joint makes a hose
down tight seal for type 4, 4X & IP66 application.
Sealing Materials
SC Series Sealing compound is a cement used extensively for sealing conduit to prevent the spread of explosive gases. It is non-shrinking and a secure seal is formed.
SC Series resists acids, water, oil, etc. It is UL Listed for use with Killark ENY, EY, and EYS Series. Also CSA certified for use with any CSA certified sealing fitting.
Class I, Div. 1 & 2, Groups A, B, C, D
Class I, Zone 1, Groups IIC, IIB, IIA
Class II, Div. 1 & 2, Groups E, F, G
Class III
Application & Installation
Class I, Divisions 1 and 2
The purpose of seals in a Class I hazardous location is to minimize the passage of gases and vapors and prevent the passage of flames from one electrical installation to another through the conduit system.
Killark ‘VSL’ Series LED fixtures are designed for installations where moisture, dirt, dust, corrosion and vibration may be present, or NEMA 3 and 4 areas where wind, water, snow or high ambients can be expected.
VSL’s are sized to replace “Utility” type fixtures (incandescent or CFL’s) in hallways, closets, elevator pits, docks, stairwells, access tunnels, and mechanical rooms.
These fixtures can be used in locations made hazardous by the presence of flammable vapors or gases or combustible dusts as defined by the NEC.
Typical applications include manufacturing plants, and certain chemical and petrochemical processing
facilities, sewage treatment plants, off-shore and dockside installations, and garage areas.
Long Life – 60,500+ maintenance-free hours to 70% initial lumens
