Corrosive Atmospheres

This switchgear is designed to give top performance when
installed in normal indoor or outdoor locations. Where abnormal
conditions, such as corrosive atmospheres, are encountered,
special precautions must be taken to minimize their effect.
Exposed metallic surfaces, non-insulated bus bars, disconnect
switches, primary and secondary disconnecting contacts, wire
ends, instrument terminals, etc., must all be protected. At
each maintenance inspection, all of the old grease should be
wiped off of the contacts and new lubricant applied to all slid-
ing surfaces. Apply the contact lubricant in a layer .03-.06” (1-
2mm) thick. Use only Siemens Electrical Contact Lubricant,
Part No. 15-171-370-002, available in 8 oz. (.23kg) tubes. Other
exposed components can be protected with a coat of glyptol
or other corrosion-resistant coating.

When old grease becomes dirty, wipe the part clean and apply
new grease immediately.

Relays and Instruments

To insure satisfactory operation of relays and instruments do
not leave device covers off longer than necessary. When a
cover has been broken, cover the device temporarily and
replace broken glass as soon as possible.

Equipment Surfaces

Inspect the painted surfaces and touch up scratches as
necessary.  Touchup paint is available from Siemens. This
paint matches the unit and is thinned and ready for use in one
pint (473mm

3

) spray cans.

Maintenance

Hazardous voltages.

Can cause death, personal injury, and
property damage.

Use only recommended solvents for cleaning
insulation materials.
