1. DIRECTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

1. Mount the back box by means of mounting lugs,
install conduit nipple and sealing ttings one each
to be installed on each conduit entrance or exit
to the enclosure back box in Class l and Class ll
areas (Reference: Article 500 NEC) thread conduit
into sealing tting (Note: for Class l areas the

conduit should engage [5] full threads).

2. The conduit thread should be lubricated with a
non-electrical insulating lubricant or pipe joint
compound that will not promote corrosion or
chemically attack aluminium.

3. After conduit system has been properly installed,
pull the wires and make electrical connections as
required. The electrical circuits and ground
continuity should be checked with an instrument
approved for the area. (Notice: connect only
copper wire to this device).

4. All conduits entering or leaving the enclosure
must be sealed within 18” of the enclosure with
listed sealing ttings such as Killark “EY” or “EYS”
sealing ttings.

5. Caution must be taken during installation to be
sure that the ground ange ame joints of the
cover and the box are not scratched, nicked or
damaged.

6. Before assembly of the cover to the box, the
mating ground surfaces of both the box and cover
should be wiped clean to assure that the ground
ame joint will be free of all foreign particles such
as lint, dust or dirt.

7. After tightly bolting the cover assembly/assemblies
to the enclosure all box to cover, ame joints
should be checked with a 0.0015” thick feeler
gauge such that the gauge will not enter the ame
path more than 1/8” at any point.

2. MAINTENANCE

All moving shafts should be lubricated
occasionally to prevent binding. Only use a
lubricant which is suitable for use with aluminium
or stainless steel such as killark “LUBG” (general
purpose) or “LUBT” (high temperature) lubricants.
If devices are to be installed in corrosive areas

which will attack aluminium alloys containing less

than 0.4% copper (boxes and covers) and 303
stainless steel (mostly shafts), the device should
be suitably protected from the corrosive material.

3. CAUTION

To prevent ignition of hazardous atmospheres,
disconnect from the supply circuits before
opening the enclosure; keep tightly closed while
circuits are energized.

1. METHODE GENERALE D’INSTALLATION

1. Monter le boitier au moyen des oreilles de xation fournies.
Installer le raccord et le raccord d’etancheite, un de
chaque sorte a visser sur chaque entrée ou sortie de tube
vers l’enceinte, dans les endroits de Class I et Classe II
(Reference: Article 500 Du Cen).

(Note: Pour les endroits de Classe I, le tube doit

engager 5 lets complets).

2. Les lets du tube doivent etre lubries avec un lubrant
isolant non-electrique, ou mastic pour joints de tuyaux
qui n’encouragera pas la corrosion, ni n’attaquera
chimiquement l’aluminium.

3. Apres que le systeme du tubes aura ete installe
convenablement, tirer les ls et faites les raccords requis.
il faut controller les circuits electriquess et l’uniformite de
la mise a la terre au moyen d’un appareil approuve pour
l’endroit. Note: Raccorder seulement des ls en cuivre a ce
dispositif.

4. Tous les tubes entrant dans l’enceinte ou en sortant
doivent etre fermes a 18” de l’enceinte avec des raccords.
d’etancheite repertories tels que les raccords killark “ey”
ou “eys”.

5. Il faut veiller pendant l’installation a ce que les joints a
collet du couvercle et du boiter ne soient ni eraes, ni
entailles, ni endommages. avant d’assembler le couvercle
sur le boiter, il fout essuyer les surfaces de mise a la terre
correspondantes pour etre sur que le joint sera exempt de
toute particule etrangere, telle que poussiere, salete ou
charpie.

6. Apres avoir bien boulonne les ensembles des couvercles
sur l’enceinte, il faut verier tous les joints entre le boiter
et le couvercle avec un calibre e’epaisseur de 0.0015” (de
sorte que le calibre ne penetrera pas dans le joint de plus
de 1/8” a n’ importe quel point).

2. ENTRETIEN

Tous les arbes mobiles doivent etre lubries a l’occasion
pour empecher tout coincage. Employer seulement un
lubriant convenant a l’aluminium ou l’acier inoxydable,
tel que Killark “lubg” (tout usage) ou “lubt” (hautes
temperatures). Garder tous les collets propres et exempts
d’eraures.

Si les dispositifs doivent etre installes dans des endroits
corrosifs qui attaqueront les alliages d’aluminium contenant
moins de 0.4% de cuivre (boiters et couvercles) et de
l’acier inoxydable 303 (la plupart des arbres), il faut
proteger le dispositif convenablement contre le materiau
corrosif.

3. MISE EN GARDE

Pour empecher toute inammation des atmospheres
dnagereuses, debrancher des circuits d’alimentation
avat d’ouvrir l’enceinte. Garder bien ferme tant que les
circuits sont sous tension.
