Safety notes (ATEX)
If your MasoSine pump is to be used in production machinery in potentially explosive atmospheres, it will
be equipped accordingly from the factory.
8.1
Safety signs
The following ATEX symbols are only given as an example.
The specific ATEX classification is printed on the nameplate and the certificate of conformance provided
with every ATEX pump.
II 2 G c IIB T4
II 2 D c T = 120C
Grounding symbol
Pump classification
MasoSine pumps are designed for continuous duty and are therefore assigned to the Device Group II –
Application field “dust – or gas – explosive areas”.
Zone classification
MasoSine pumps can be used in explosive areas of zone 1 / 21. This corresponds to the category 2 G / D.
It is expressly forbidden to use the pumps in zone 0.
Classification of explosive atmospheres
A distinction is made between dust and gas explosive atmospheres. In the model code, the atmosphere is
abbreviated with G (Gas) and D (Dust). MasoSine pumps are designed to be used in explosive
atmospheres G (Gas) or D (Dust).
Ignition protection
MasoSine pumps pumps are subject to ignition protection “c” constructive safety, according to the
standard for non-electric appliances for use in explosion-risk areas, EN 13463-5.

8.2
Earthing the pump
SPS pumps are equipped with an earthing point. The pump must be earthed by an earthing cable secured
to the correct position. SPS 100 must be earthed at the base of the rear foot. Other models must be
earthed as shown: with cast iron power frame, right; with stainless steel power frame, below right. This is
particularly important in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Cast iron power frame
Stainless steel power frame
In addition to earthing the pump, the drive motor must also be earthed. If the drive
is not earthed, the pump unit may not be operated.
