compression nut and so on. The cable entry is mounted on the rear end cap. Impeller is
made of cast aluminum alloy and fixed by fasten bolts. After finish machining a static
pressure test shall be carried out on the motor, no structure damage, permanently
deformation which may affect the explosion proof performance or drip allowed when
tested by pressure of 1.5Mpa for 10 seconds.
3.2.
Clearance(flame path), length and roughness of flame proof joint shall comply with
associate requirements of GB3836.2-2010; electric clearance and creepage distance
shall comply with associate requirements of GB3836.3-2010
3.3.
Washer is required of every fasten bolts of flameproof enclosure, avoid loosen.
4. Installation, operation and maintenance
