INSTRUCTION FOR UNILET SEALING FITTINGS APPROVED FOR USE WITH: APPLETON. wiko® A AND CROUSE-HINDS Chico® A SEALING CEMENT • The National Electrical Code in ArtJcle 50 1 Section 501.15 Class I. Division 1 and 2, requires that seals be installed in spec c
locations. This is to prevent the passage of gases, vapors or flames th rough the conduit from one portion of the electricalmsta ­
lion to another portion .
• Appleton sealillg unilers are UL listed for use in hazardous locations with Appleton Kwiko A compound or Crouse Hinds Chico
A compound onI These compounds, when properly mixed and poured, hardens into a dense and strong mass which is insoluble in
water, i not a
