Safety instructions

Target group:
For skilled electricians and suitable
qualified, instructed personnel in
accordance with national legislation,
including the relevant standards.
The GHG 522 plugs and sockets are not
suitable for explosion hazardous areas.
Modifications to the plugs and sockets or
changes of their design are not permitted.
They shall be used for their intended
purpose and in perfect and clean condition.
For replacement and repair only genuine
CEAG spare parts shall be used.
Repairs that affect the explosion protection,
may only be carried out by COOPER
CROUSE-HINDS or a qualified electrician in
compliance with the respective national
regulations.
Prior to taking the plugs and sockets into
operation, they will have to be checked in
acc. with the instruction as per section 6.
The sockets may only be used in undam-
aged condition.
Before the initial operation, any foreign
matter will have to be removed from the the
plugs and sockets.
Observe the national safety rules and
regulations for prevention of accidents as
well as the safety instructions included in
these operating instructions and set in
italics the same as this text!

Conformity with standards

The apparatus are conform to the standards
specified in the EC-Declaration of conformity,
enclosed separately.
References to standards and directives in these
operating instructions always relate to the latest
version. Other additions (e.g. details relating to
the year) shall be observed.

Field of application

The plugs and sockets GHG 522 are
suitable for use in heavy industrial areas acc.
to. IEC/EN 60309!
The enclosure materials employed, including
the exterior metal parts, are made of high-
quality materials which ensure a corrosion
protection and resistance to chemical sub-
stances corresponding to the requirements in
a "normal industrial atmosphere":
- impact resistant polyamide
- glass-fibre reinforced polyester
Item 1
- special steel AISI 316 L
In case of use in an extremely aggressive
atmosphere, the additional data on the
employed plastic materials' resistance against
chemicals will have to be taken from the data
sheet GHG 902 4001 P0001.
5 Use / Properties
The GHG 522 plugs and sockets are used for
the power supply of local controls with varying
locations, as well as of electrical installations,
mobile machinery and driving gear in industrial
areas. Acc. to IEC they are used up to max. 32 A
(see page 7 , Technical data).
The plugs and sockets can generally be used
for the voltage range laid down in IEC/EN 60309
(e.g. UN 400V that corresponds to the voltage
range 380-415V).
The apparatus connected to the plug shall
be suitable for the applied mains voltage.
Fig. 1: In order to activate the socket, first the
bayonet ring item 2 is to be screwed off the
socket item 1 and to be folded open.
Fig. 2: After pushing the plug into the socket,
the bayonet ring of the plug item 2 is screwed
to its stop onto the socket in order to establish
IP 66 protection category.
For operating the 4-pole wall socket (with
interlocking switch) proceed as follows:
Fig. 1 + fig. 2: as described above.
Fig. 3: The switch item 3 is switched on,
thereby locking the plug in the socket.
After switching on the socket, the bayonet ring
item 2 of the plug is screwed to its stop onto
the socket item 1 in order to maintain the
protection category acc. to the type label
also whilst the plug is inserted.
Proceed in inverse order to switch off and pull
the plug from the wall socket with switch. After
having removed the plug from the socket, close
the latter with the folding cover and secure it
with the bayonet ring in order to establish IP 66
type of protection.
The plug can be pushed into the socket and
pulled out of it only whilst the wall socket
with switch is switched off.
The user alone is responsible for the
appropriate use of this plug and socket
system.
After a short in the circuit, the operativeness
has to be checked.
The data as per point 3 and 4 will have to be
taken into account with the use.
