points and that material combinations of the above-
named light metals with steel (exception: stainless
steel) are not used in the working area of the hoists,
at potential friction, impact or sliding points. It is
thus possible to exclude sparking due to mechanical
influences with these material combinations.
The external housing of the service units is made of
aluminium. Therefore the installation position is to be
selected so as to ensure that there is no risk from
impact sparks.
EARTHING
Electrostatic ignition hazards can be prevented by
means of safe earthing. In zones 1 and 21, earthing
of the hoists is required. This must be achieved via
the load hook or the load eyes if the lifting equipment
is connected to correspondingly earthed parts (earth
leakage resistance less than 10
6
Ω ). This also applies to
operation with trolleys or cranes. Their tracks must be
earthed on site. Running wheels and rail surfaces must
never be painted, as this can result in unacceptably
high earth leakage resistance values.
Earthing of the load hook is via the chain (see also
Load chain , page 10).
Loads must be earthed during transportation.
A separate earth is required, for example, when using
non-conducting sling gear.
CLEANING PLASTIC SURFACES
Where JDN Air Hoists or JDN Air Winches feature plastic
parts, these surfaces must only be cleaned using a damp
cloth (cleaning cloth with water). This reduces electro-
static charging that can arise due to mechanical friction
at the plastic surface.
DANGER!
Electrostatic charging may occur at the
plastic surfaces, potentially leading to
electrostatic discharge that can ignite gases
and air mixtures.
ACETYLENE AND COPPER
When operating JDN products in explosion-hazardous
areas, in which an acetylene-containing atmosphere can
occur, it must be ensured that copper-plated parts are
kept dry in order to exclude the possibility of oxidation
of the metallic copper and the formation of an aqueous
phase, which is capable of reacting with acetylene and
which can result in an explosion hazard.
