TRI CLAMP sanitary fittings in ss rigid electric conduit

(OP)
Hello,
is a tri clamp sanitary fittings allowed in a rigid ss electric conduit for an industrial food processing machine? I don't find nothing regarding this in the NEC (NFPA 70) codes regulations.

RE: TRI CLAMP sanitary fittings in ss rigid electric conduit

Sanitary fittings are only for process piping or instrument connections to the piping (in this case, the process is food grade product).

Sanitary fittings are not for electrical conduit.

For the NEC reference look at this:
344.6 Listing Requirements. RMC, factory elbows and couplings, and associated fittings shall be listed.
