Overview

The ABB E940L Standard Coupling (SKU: E940L) is a precision-engineered PVC fitting designed for secure, long-lasting conduit connections in industrial and commercial electrical systems. Manufactured by ABB Installation Products, this 3-inch coupling provides a reliable solution for joining Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 non-metallic conduits with a snug, interference-free fit. The coupling's dimensions are optimized for compatibility with standard conduit sizes, featuring a length of 3-19/32 inches, an outer diameter of 3-13/32 inches, and an inner diameter of 2.688 inches. These specifications ensure a tight seal that prevents conduit separation and maintains system integrity under operational stress. The gray PVC construction delivers exceptional resistance to corrosion, moisture, and chemical exposure, making it ideal for harsh environments such as chemical processing plants, wastewater treatment facilities, and outdoor installations. Unlike metallic fittings, the E940L eliminates galvanic corrosion risks and reduces weight for easier handling during installation. The coupling's design simplifies assembly when used with appropriate solvent cement, as recommended by ABB, ensuring a homogeneous bond that withstands vibration and thermal cycling. With a standard carton quantity of 25 units, the E940L is optimized for bulk procurement in large-scale projects while maintaining individual packaging integrity. This fitting is part of ABB's comprehensive line of non-metallic conduit fittings, providing consistent performance across their product range.
