The minimum allowable micron level for higher viscosity oil is 10 microns.
  • Page 9 WARNING The Electric Drum Pump motor 30018 and 30021 are totally enclosed fan cooled motors (TEFC) with a thermal overload switch. Do not use these motors in conjunction with flammable materials or in hazardous duty areas. Do not submerge motors or let motors contact liquids. If motor stops running, turn the power switch to the off position “0”...
  • Page 10 Determining the ISO Cleanliness level of equipment requires analysis of the running lubricating oil. Trico’s oil analysis laboratories can provide an accurate indication of the ISO Cleanliness level of lubricating oil before and after filtration. Each number in the ISO code represents the...
  • Page 11 GROUNDING AND BINDING The Drum Pump Filtration System is not rated for a hazardous duty environment due to possible static discharge, use proper bonding and grounding per NFPA 77. A Bonding system connects various pieces of conductive equipment together to keep them at the same potential. Static sparking cannot take place between objects that are the same potential.
