Repairs

When needed, repairs must only be carried out using spare parts supplied by the
manufacturer. All accessories must comply with approved specifications and follow the
application and site requirements.
WARNING
Installation, configuration, commissioning, maintenance, and repairs must be performed
by approved and qualified personnel only.
WARNING
The values of gaps of explosion-proof joints are lower than the maximum specified on Tables
of IEC/EN 60079-1 Standard and the values of widths of the explosion-proof joints are greater
than the values specified in the tables of the Standard IEC/EN 60079-1. Should maintenance
require the replacement of any component that forms part of an explosion-proof joint, only
an original spare provided by Emerson can be used. Direct repair or reconstruction of the
above components is not permitted without Emerson authorization. Not performing this
procedure will invalidate the product safety and contractual guarantee.
Original spare parts must be ordered from the manufacturer; to ensure that correct spares
are provided, the serial number printed on the XTE3000 product label must be specified
when an order for spares is placed.
Appendix
Do not damage the explosion-proof mating surfaces on the housing or on the
electrical enclosure cover.
Reinstall all the screws that came with the dismantled parts and coat them with a
film of molybdenum-based grease. This will prevent the screws from sticking and
make future maintenance operations easier.
If the screws need to be changed, the new screws must be of equal dimensions
and at least equal material quality to the screws originally supplied with the unit.
Replace the weather-proof seals that may have been removed, i.e. O-Rings for
the cover.
In particular, be sure to spread a film of Aeroshell grease over the joint surfaces of
all enclosures.
