– Gas lubricated double mechanical seals on the motor side and oil lubricated single
mechanical seals on suction side.
The gas lubricated double mechanical seals require a pressure switch in order to monit-
ors if the gas pressure drops below the minimum allowable pressure. See
gram Pressure Switch (With Gas Lubricated Double Mechanical Seals Only) [
2.5.7 PTFE Shaft Seals
The sealing systems on the motor side can also be equipped with PTFE shaft seals.
2.5.8 Terminal box
The machine can be optionally equipped with one or two terminal boxes. All electrical
devices, except the motor, are already wired to the terminal box.
2.5.9 Flame Arresters
The flame arresters are safety devices. They do not prevent explosion but avoid the
propagation of a deflagration within the machine compression chamber to the up and
downstream lines of the system.
To avoid a loss of suction capacity through the flame arrester at the machine inlet, a by-
pass connection with a ball valve can be optionally delivered, see

2.6.1 ATEX Nameplate
The machine has two different nameplates:
– A nameplate (NP1) is fixed on the base frame of the machine with the ATEX marking
inscription.
– A second nameplate (NP2) is fixed on the machine stage (module) identifying that
the stage is suitable for ATEX certified machine.
This allows the preservation of the machine ATEX certification if the machine stage
should be replaced.
