2.4.1 Areas of Application<br />

Warning<br />

Caution<br />

Before pumping oxygen (or other highly<br />

reactive gases) at concentrations exceeding<br />

the concentration in the atmosphere<br />

(> 21 % for oxygen) it will be necessary to<br />

use a special pump. Such a pump will have<br />

to be modified and de-greased, and an inert<br />

special lubricant (like PFPE) must be used.<br />

The pump is not suitable for pumping of:<br />

– ignitable and explosive gases or vapours<br />

– oxidants<br />

– pyrophorous gases.<br />

The pumps are not suitable for pumping of<br />

liquids or very dusty media. Suitable protective<br />

devices must be installed.<br />

Our technical sales department is available for further<br />

advice in these matters.<br />

2.4.2 Notes for Pumps with<br />

EExe II T3 Motors<br />

There are no reservations as to operation of the vacuum<br />

pump in explosion hazard areas of outer ZONE 1 for<br />

substances of temperature classes T1 to T3 and explosion<br />

group IIA and IIB when observing the conditions<br />

given in the following:<br />

Warning<br />

• The electric motor of the vacuum pump<br />

must be connected through a suitable<br />

motor protection switch to the mains supply.<br />

If the vacuum pump is supplied ready<br />

for connection, the motor protection<br />

switch needs to be installed by the customer<br />

on the vacuum pump and within a<br />

pressure-tight encapsulation.<br />

• The electric motor must be installed in<br />

accordance with the accepted rules which<br />

apply to electrical systems in explosion<br />

hazard areas. If required, detailed information<br />

on this is available from the manufacturer.<br />

• In case of a failure relating to the vacuum,<br />

the vacuum pump must be switched off<br />

automatically by interrupting the power<br />

supply.<br />

• Due to the measures introduced, the<br />

vacuum pump is not suited for pumping<br />

explosive atmospheres (inner explosion<br />

protection). If planning such an application<br />

please consult us first.<br />
