Installation

For the mounting and operation, the respective
national regulations as well as the general rules
of engineering shall be observed.
(IEC/EN 60079-14).
6.1

Mounting

The junction boxes can be mounted without
opening their enclosure.
In case the junction boxes are mounted directly
onto the wall, they may rest evenly only at the
respective fastening points. The chosen screw
shall match the fastening hole (see dimensional
drawing) and it must not damage the hole (e. g.
use of a washer).
The device shall be fastened diagonally with at
least 2 screws.
If the screws are overtightened, the apparatus
can be damaged.
The junction boxes are suitable for fixing onto
Cooper Crouse-Hinds apparatus holders size 1+
2 by means of self-cutting screws (see fig. 2,
fixing point "B").
The respective mounting instructions shall
be observed.
6.2 Opening the device/
Electrical connection
Before opening the apparatus, it is neces-
sary to ensure that there is no voltage or to
take suitable protective measures.
The electrical connection of the device may
only be carried out by skilled staff
(IEC/EN 60079-14).
The insulation of the conductors shall reach
up to the terminal. The conductor itself shall
not be damaged.
The properly bared conductors of the cables
shall be connected, taking into account the
respective regulations.
The connectible min. and max. conductor
cross-sections shall be observed (see technical
data).
All screws and/or nuts of the supply terminals,
also of those remaining unused, shall be
tightened down.
EATON's Crouse-Hinds Business
The conductors shall be connected with
special care in order to maintain the
explosion category.
The supply terminals are designed for the
connection of copper conductors.
If multi- or fine-wire connecting cables are used,
the wire ends will have to be handled in acc.
with the applicable national and international
rules (e. g. use of ferrules).
If more than 4 cables are introduced into the
GHG 791 02 junction box, one terminal block is
to be fitted with the PE bridge joined.
6.3 Cable entries (KLE);
blanking plugs
To maintain the minimum degree of protection
all unused entries are to de closed using the
Cooper Crouse-Hinds certifiedd blanking plugs
which are supplied loose inside of the junction
box (see page 4, fig. 1).
In case of sealing inserts that are cut out, it
shall be ensured that the insert is properly
adapted to the cable diameter. Care has to be
taken that when fitting the cable entries,
sealing inserts appropriate to the cable
diameter are used.
When using cable entries for fixed cables it is
necessary to ensure that no inadmissible high
mechanical stress is applied to the cable entry
or its seal.
In order to ensure the required minimum
protection category, the cable glands are to be
tightened down.
Overtightening might impair the protection
category.
If metal glands are being used, the junction box
version with the internal metal frame is to be
used. To maintain the minimum degree of
protection a sealing washer is to be used under
the metal gland.
When using metal cable entries with a lower IP
protection than that which applies to the device
(see page 7 , technical data), the IP protection of
the whole device will be reduced.
The mounting directives applicable to the cable
entries used shall be observed.
Attention: The metal frame and metal glands
are to be integrated into the potential
equalization.
