Panels for Explosion Proof Pumps Simplex and Duplex with intrinsically safe relays |
![]() |
|
These Intrinsically
safe control panels are used on pump applications defined as a hazardous duty location. Lift stations in some regions fall under this classification. The intrinsically
safe panel, in conjunction with an explosion proof pump, will provide a system that will
not allow ignition of the explosive gases. The purpose of the control panel is to cycle a
pump automatically. Each panel comes standard with pump run light(s), a high water audible
and visual alarm, seal fail indicator(s), and a UL listing. All panels come standard with
a NEMA 4x rating for indoor or outdoor use. These panels MUST NOT be in the space classified as needing explosion proof equipment. Special fittings that either prevent the passage of hot gases, in the case of an explosion in a Class I area or the passage of combustible dust, fibers, or flyings in a Class II or III area (NEC 501-5 and 502-5), are required. A qualified electrician must install all electrical systems. National Electric Code (NEC) Articles 500 through 503 explain in detail the requirements for the installation of wiring or electrical equipment in hazardous locations. These articles along with other applicable regulations, local governing inspection authorities, insurance representatives, and qualified engineering / technical assistance should be your guides to the installation of wiring or electrical equipment in any hazardous or potentially hazardous location.
