This equipment shall only be used in an area with zones as defined:
(See user manual Section Preventative Maintenance Page 15).
The support housing is supplied with a 4m earth lead.
The lead must be connected to a true earth ground.

diameter.
Inside the Vessel
Outside the Vessel
Drainage is through the 1/8" connection.
NOTE
In addition a PTFE shaft seal is incorporated into the support housing to prevent any unintentional
ingress from entering the tank.
A Ø6mm hose fitting or similar can be connected to allow any oil to be piped away from the tank lid.
The maintenance regime for the motor, gearbox and lip seal must be strictly followed.
The end user must carry out routine maintenance and periodically inspect the support housing & shaft
/ impeller for signs of damage or distortion that may compromise the clearances required above.

Zone 1
(See user manual Section Functional Description Page 4).
The agitator, when operated with an inverter, must not differ from the minimum and maximum range
of Hz.
The end user must ensure that there is a minimum 50 mm clearance between the impeller and the
wall of the vessel.
The end user shall ensure that all metallic parts of the equipment are suitably bonded to a common
earth point.
A resistance of <1Ω should be achieved between metallic parts and true earth ground.
Maximum shaft speed shall not exceed 229 rpm.
The agitator shaft and mixing equipment must be kept clean from the gradual build-up of product
which can cause vibration due to out-of-balance loading.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ATEX
WARNING
To eliminate the possibility of any oil contamination into the paint tank from a failed or leaking
gearbox seal, a flinger plate is incorporated onto the shaft to direct any oil escape into the support
housing.
