5.6.4 Coupling guard
5.4.2 In compliance with the accident prevention regulations the pump must not operate without a coupling guard.
If the customer specifically requests not to include a coupling guard in our delivery, then the operator must supply one. In this
case, it is important to make sure that the materials selected for coupling and coupling guard are non-sparking in the event of
mechanical contact. KSB’s scope of supply meets this requirement.
5.7 Final check
Re-check the alignment as described in section 5.3.
It must be easy to rotate the shaft by hand at the coupling.
5.8 Connection to power supply
Connection to the power supply must be effected by a trained electrician only. Check available mains
voltage against the data on the motor rating plate and select appropriate start-up method.
We strongly recommend to use a motor protection device.
In hazardous areas, compliance with EC60079-14 is an additional requirement for electrical connection.
