Electrostatic charge
Subsequently modifying the device, operating it outside of the approved conditions,
failing to clean it properly or painting/coating it can cause the device to become
electrostatically charged, thus causing it to produce sparks. This may result in explosions
causing serious or even fatal injury to persons in the vicinity.
Only allow the manufacturer to paint the device and have this company coat it
with special, conductive paint.
Do not paint or repaint the device yourself. Have all repairs performed by
the manufacturer.
Comply with the area specification of EN IEC 60079-0 when fitting additional plastic
adhesive labels.
Clean the device only with a damp cloth.
Impairment of IP protection
When installed properly and completely, the device will have the required IP degree
of protection. Making structural modifications to the device or installing it improperly can
impair its IP protection. This may result in explosions causing serious or even fatal injury
to persons in the vicinity.
Do not drill any additional holes in order to apply labels or plates (on the outside).
If any holes are needed for cable entries, always have these drilled by R. STAHL.
Install the device only in the prescribed mounting position. More detailed explanations
of this can be found in the "Mounting" chapter.
Improper maintenance or cleaning
Basic work such as installation, commissioning, maintenance or cleaning of the device
must be performed only in accordance with the applicable national regulations of the
country of use and only by qualified persons. Otherwise the explosion protection can
be rendered ineffective. This may result in explosions causing serious or even fatal injury
to persons in the vicinity.
Gently clean the device only with a damp cloth and without scratching, abrasive
or aggressive cleaning agents or solutions.
Never clean the device with a strong water jet, e.g. using a pressure washer.
3.3.2 Risk of injury
Falling devices or components
The heavy device or components can fall during transport and mounting, causing severe
injury to persons in the form of bruises and contusions.
Use transporting and lifting equipment suitable for the size and weight of the device
when transporting and mounting it.
Take into account the weight of the device; see specifications on the packaging.
Use suitable mounting material for fastening.
