dBA
at a distance of three feet (~ one meter).
5.
Modifications and Spare Parts
Any changes concerning the service of the motor as originally purchased, can be executed only after
written
approval from
Standard Pump,
Inc. It is recommended to use only genuine
Standard Pump,
Inc. spare parts
and approved accessories. The use of non-original spare parts or non-approved
accessories will void warranty
and removes any responsibility on our behalf for any damage caused to
people or things.
NEVER operate ATEX rated or Haz Loc rated motors outside their rated ambient temperature range of -20°C
to +40°C.
Warning: Explosion Hazard - Do not replace the cord on Explosion proof motor models. Replacing the cord will
invalidate the safety of the equipment. Return the motor back to the manufacturer for cord replacement. Do
not open or repair the flame-proof joints of Explosion proof motors. Contact the manufacturer for cord, fuse,
and circuit board replacement.
Static sparking can cause an explosion. Always follow NFPA 77 and CLC/TR 60079-32-1 guidelines for
control of static electricity and proper grounding methods when using ATEX and Hazardous Location motor
models. When operating in a hazardous area or pumping a hazardous fluid, the motor and entire pump system
must be grounded to prevent static discharge using appropriate grounding wires and connectors.
