Explosion protected plug and socket system 32A, GHG 517
When using cable entries with a lower IP
protection than that which applies to the device
(see page 3, technical data), the IP protection of
the whole device will be reduced. The mounting
directives applicable to the cable entries used
shall be observed. Unused holes shall be closed
with a certified blanking plug in order to establish
690V
the minimum protection category. In case of
black
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.
In order to ensure the required minimum
protection category, the cable glands are to be
tightened down.
690V
Overtightening might impair the protection
black
category.
All vacant metric COOPER CROUSE-HINDS /
CEAG cable entries shall be closed with the
certified blanking plug for metric cable
entries.
6.3.2

Plug/coupler

In general, only the sealing inserts fitted in the
plug or in the coupler may be used. When
mounting the cable, attention has to be paid
that sealing inserts matching the cable
diameter be used. After having mounted the
cable, the coupling ring (page 9, item 3, fig. 2)
is to be screwed fingertight until the sealing
effect is obtained. Then the screws item 5 of
the pull-relief item 6, are to be tightened
down.
Mind! Overtightening might impair the pull-
relief effect!

Closing the device

In order to ensure the required minimum
protection category, the cover screws, the
screws of the plug and of the coupler shall be
tightened down.
The screws of the plug and the coupler shall
be tightened down.
Overtightening might impair the protection
category. Any foreign matter shall be
removed from the device.

Taking into operation

Prior to taking the apparatus into operation,
the tests specified in the relevant national
regulations shall be carried out. Apart from
that, the correct functioning and installation of
the apparatus in accordance with these
operating instructions and other applicable
regulations will have to be checked.
Check the plug for any damages before
putting it in the socket.
The user must ensure that a uniform
equipotential earth applies throughout when
the plug and socket system is operated.

Maintenance/Servicing

The relevant national regulations which
apply to the maintenance/servicing of
electrical apparatus in explosive
atmospheres, shall be observed.
(EN 60079-17).
Before opening the enclosure, make sure
that the device is disconnected from the
voltage, or take appropriate protective
measures.
The required maintenance intervals depend on
the specific application and will therefore have
to be determined by the user dependent on
the conditions of use.
When servicing the plugs and sockets,
particularly those parts that are decisive for
their type of protection against explosion will
have to be checked (e. g. intactness of
flameproof enclosed components, of the
housing, firm fit of the cable entries and
efficacy of gaskets).
If during servicing, repairs prove to be
necessary, section 8 of these operating
instructions will have to be observed.
8 Repair/Overhaul/
Modifications
Repairs and overhaul may only be carried out
with genuine COOPER CROUSE-HINDS /
CEAG spare parts.
Should the flameproof enclosure be damaged,
only a replacement will be permitted. In case
of doubt, the respective apparatus will have to
be returned to COOPER CROUSE-HINDS /
CEAG for repair.
Repairs that affect the explosion protection,
may only be carried out by COOPER
CROUSE-HINDS / CEAG or a qualified
electrician in compliance with the applicable
national rules (EN 60079-19).
Modifications to the device or changes of its
design are not permitted.

Disposal/Recycling

When the apparatus is disposed of, the
respective national regulations on waste
disposal will have to be observed. In order to
facilitate the recycling of individual
components, plastic parts are provided with
the identification mark of the plastic material used.
