4.9 Spaces with danger of fire or explosion
Extra point(s) for attention with ATEX pumps.
Integrated explosion
safety:
For the case of an internal explosion, which is excluded to the
extent possible, it is the responsibility of the user to decide if
technical measures (such as quick-acting valves) must be taken
to prevent and/or limit the explosion.
When flammable and/or explosive products are being used, provide the pump
(unit) with good earthing and connect the different components of the pump
(unit) through earth bridges. This limits the danger resulting from the presence
of static electricity.
Use explosion-free or explosion-proof motors according to prevailing local
regulations, and for the pump (unit) use suitable protective covers and suitable
couplings provided with a certificate for the zone concerned.
4.10 Protection against extreme temperatures
The temperature in and around the pump/pump unit can increase depending on the liquid pumped.
From 70ºC the user must apply the necessary protective e
against contact with the pump.
When fitting guards make sure that air circulation remains possible. The bearings
and bearing grease in the bearing housing will then not overheat.
