Safety standards Safety measures and safety equipment must comply with the respectively valid na-
tional on site specifications. All externally connected devices shall comply with the rel-
evant safety standards for the place of installation.
Connecting cables, cable
glands, reducers, blanking
plugs
• We recommend using connecting cables and connecting terminals according to
the rated current (I
N
). (Refer to Motor name tag [}9] or electrical data sheet.)
• Use suitable (voltage-proof) cables. Specify cables for the highest occurring rated
voltage.
• Use connecting cables, cable glands, reducers, blanking plugs with a minimum
temperature range of 165 °F (+80 °C).
• To avoid contact corrosion, we recommend the use of sealing agents for cable
glands and blanking plugs made of metal.
• For connecting cables exposed to UV radiation (outdoor installation), use UV re-
sistant cables.
• For the connection of position transmitters, screened cables must be used.

Short description KES plug-in electrical connection with terminal blocks for power and control contacts.
Cover in KES-Ex d version for terminal compartment in type of protection Ex d (flame-
proof enclosure) available.
Plug-in connection is made via the connection frame. Removing the cover is sufficient
for connecting the cables. The connection frame with the cable entries remains at the
device. The flameproof interior of the connected devices remains sealed.
