WARNING!
The discharge of electrostatically charged parts can lead to ignitable sparks.
Prevent electrostatic charging by taking appropriate installation and cleaning
measures.
For equipotential bonding, connect all the conducting metal parts with one
another.
Include the shaft in the system's equipotential bonding.
Include the housing in the equipotential bonding of the system.
Earth the entire system.
WARNING!
Corrosive gases and dust particles inside components can result in changes to
material and material damage. Explosive gas atmospheres or dust should not
penetrate into the spring area of single-acting drives.
Install an exhaust return using a 3/2-way valve that is suitable for zones 1, 2,
21 and 22 or
extract the air in the spring area via tubing lines at connection 4 outside
potentially explosive areas.
NOTICE!
Installation and commissioning may only be performed in accordance with the
