Guidelines for compliance
Compliance is only fulfilled when the pump is operated within its intended use, for example within its in-
tended hydraulic range. The conditions of the service must not be changed without approval of an au-
thorized ITT representative. When installing or maintaining explosion-proof pumps, follow these guide-
lines:
•
Always install ATEX-approved equipment in compliance with the directive and applicable stand-
ards.
•
Do not install explosion proof products in locations that are classified as hazardous in the national
electric code, ANSI/NFPA 70–2005.
WARNING:
Risk of serious personal injury. Applying heat to impellers, propellers, or their retaining devices
can cause trapped liquid to rapidly expand and result in a violent explosion. This manual clear-
ly identifies accepted methods for disassembling units. These methods must be adhered to.
Never apply heat to aid in their removal unless explicitly stated in this manual.
If there are any questions regarding these requirements, the intended use, or if the equipment requires
modification, contact an ITT representative before you proceed.
Personnel requirements
ITT disclaims all responsibility for work done by untrained and unauthorized personnel.
These are the personnel requirements for Ex-approved products in potentially explosive atmospheres:
•
All work on the product must be carried out by certified electricians and ITT-authorized
mechanics. Special rules apply to installations in explosive atmospheres.
•
All users must know about the risks of electric current and the chemical and physical
characteristics of the gas and/or vapor present in hazardous areas.
•
Any maintenance for Ex-approved products must conform to international and national
standards.
Product and product handling requirements
These are the product and product handling requirements for Ex-approved products in potentially explo-
sive atmospheres:
•
Equipment that will operate in a potentially explosive environment must be installed in accordance
with the following instructions.
•
All equipment being installed must be properly grounded to prevent unexpected static electric dis-
charge.
•
When pumping fluids with conductivity less than 1000 ps/m follow IEC TS 60079 32-1 guidelines.
