This 15 inch explosion proof floor machine is classified for use in Class 1 Hazardous Locations, as described by the National Electrical Code (NEC). The Unico explosion proof floor machines are tested with respect to the acceptability of operation in the presence of flammable and explosive mixture of specific vapors and gases with air. Equipment classified for use in Class 1 locations is not necessarily acceptable for Class 2 locations as it may not be Dust-Tight or operate at a safe temperature when blanketed with dust. This machine is available in 50 or 60 hertz, and 110 or 220 volts.
Protection against explosions in hazardous locations requires that all electrical equipment exposed to the flammable or combustible atmospheres be of a type suitable for installation in such locations. Equipment should be installed in circuits with overload and short-circuit protection for established ratings.
For explosion proof equipment as defined in the NEC, acceptability of use in hazardous locations will be endangered should openings or other alterations be made in the enclosure. Holding bolts of enclosing cases and threaded parts must be screwed tight. Continued acceptability of installation will depend upon proper maintenance.
Warnings: - Important to read before use!
· Use ONLY static conductive and spark proof accessories that are certified for use in hazardous locations. These machines and accessories are designed to comply with the NEC.
·
All electrical equipment must be installed and used in strict accordance with the NEC.
·
Regular maintenance inspections are a must! The electrical cord must be inspected every time the machine is used. Any cuts or cracks in the insulation on the cord must be replaced before using.
