2.4 General warning notices
M3401-02en Edition 09/2022 19
• If you want to use a coated coupling in potentially explosive atmospheres, please note
the requirements concerning the conductivity of the paint and the limitation on the paint
layer thickness applied in accordance with EN80079-36. No build-up of electrostatic
charges is to be expected with a paint layer thickness of less than 200μm.
• Only use TAPER clamping bushes with parallel key in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres. Insert the screws for fastening the TAPER clamping bushes with liquid screw
locking agent. If you are not using an original FlenderTAPER clamping bush, make sure
that the TAPER clamping bush you are using fully meets the technical requirements.

DANGER
Danger due to bursting of the coupling
The coupling may burst if it is not used properly. There is a risk of fatal injury from flying
fragments. If a coupling bursts in an area at risk of explosion, then this can result in an ex-
plosion.
• Use the coupling for the purpose for which it is intended.
DANGER
Risk of explosion when using coupling parts without Ex marking
Coupling parts without Ex marking have not been approved for use in potentially explosive
atmospheres. These coupling parts can lead to an explosion during operation.
• Only use couplings with Ex marking in potentially explosive atmospheres.
DANGER
Danger
Risk of injury due to the use of unsuitable and/or damaged components. The use of unsuit-
able and/or damaged components can lead to an explosion in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres.
• Observe the information regarding conditions of use.
DANGER
Danger of explosion
Improper operation of the coupling can lead to an explosion in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres.
• Please observe the notes concerning operation of the coupling in potentially explosive
atmospheres.
