Maintenance/Servicing

The relevant national regulations which apply
to the maintenance/servicing of electrical
apparatus in explosive atmospheres, shall be
observed (IEC/EN 60079-17).
Before opening the enclosure, make sure
that the device is disconnected from the
voltage, or take appropriate protective
measures.
The required maintenance intervals depend on
the specific application and will therefore have
to be determined by the user dependent on the
conditions of use.
When servicing the plugs and sockets,
parti cularly those parts that are decisive for
their type of protection against explosion will
have to be checked (e. g. intactness of
flameproof enclosed components, of the
housing, firm fit of the cable entries and
efficacy of gaskets).
If during servicing, repairs prove to be
necessary, section 8 of these operating
instructions will have to be observed.

with genuine Cooper Crouse-Hinds spare parts.

Repairs that affect the explosion protection,
may only be carried out by Cooper Crouse-
Hinds or a qualified electrician in compliance
with the applicable national rules
(IEC/EN 60079-19).
