Earthing (grounding)
Introduction and Safety
• Make sure that the cable and the cable entry have not been damaged during shipping.
• Use only the screened cable when using a variable-frequency drive (VFD). The
screened cable is necessary to fulfill European CE requirements. Contact your Xylem
representative and ask your VFD supplier for electrical limitations. See also VFD
recommendation in article no. 893472.
Observe the following regulations for earthing (grounding) connections.
Earthing (grounding) regulationComment
All electric equipment must be earthed (grounded).This rule applies to pumps and mixers as well as
monitoring equipment.
The earthing (grounding) conductors must be correctly
connected.
The earthing (grounding) conductors should always be
longer than the phase conductor/conductors.
Risk of electrical shock or burn. You must connect an
additional earth- (ground-) fault protection device to the
earthed (grounded) connectors if persons are likely to
come into physical contact with the pump or pumped
liquids.
Precautions before work
Observe these safety precautions before you work with the product or are in connection
with the product:
• Provide a suitable barrier around the work area, for example, a guard rail.
• Make sure that all safety guards are in place and secure.
• Allow all system and pump components to cool before you handle them.
• Make sure that you have a clear path of retreat.
• Make sure that the product cannot roll or fall over and injure people or damage
• Make sure that the lifting equipment is in good condition.
• Use a lifting harness, a safety line, and a breathing device as required.
• Make sure that the product is thoroughly clean.
• Make sure that there are no poisonous gases within the work area.
• Make sure that you have quick access to a first-aid kit.
• Disconnect and lock out power before servicing.
• Check the explosion risk before you weld or use electric hand tools.
Failure to follow this rule could result in a fatal accident.
If the motor cable is disconnected by mistake, the
earthing (grounding) conductor needs to be
disconnected last from its terminal. This rule applies to
both ends of the cable.

3. Seek medical attention, if required.
Safety regulations for Ex-approved products in potentially explosive atmospheres
General guidelines
ATEX compliance is only fulfilled when the pump is operated within its intended use, for
example within its intended hydraulic range. The conditions of the service must not be
changed without approval of an authorized Xylem representative. When installing or
maintaining ATEX-compliant pumps, follow these guidelines:
• Always install ATEX-approved equipment in compliance with the directive and
applicable standards (IEC/EN 60079–14).
• Always install FM-approved products according to ANSI/NFPA 70-2005.
WARNING:
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance manuals clearly identify accepted methods for
disassembling units. These methods must be adhered to. Trapped liquid can rapidly
expand and result in a violent explosion and injury. Never apply heat to impellers,
propellers, or their retaining devices to aid in their removal.
If there are any questions regarding these requirements, the intended use, or if the
equipment requires modification, contact an Xylem representative before you proceed.
Personnel requirements
Xylem disclaims all responsibility for work done by untrained and unauthorized personnel.
These are the personnel requirements for Ex-approved products in potentially explosive
atmospheres:
• All work on the product must be carried out by certified electricians and Xylem-
authorized mechanics. Special rules apply to installations in explosive atmospheres.
• All users must know about the risks of electric current and the chemical and physical
characteristics of the gas and/or vapor present in hazardous areas.
• The maintenance operation for Ex-approved products must be made in conformity to
the international or national standards (IEC/EN 60079-17).
Product and product handling requirements
These are the product and product handling requirements for Ex-approved products in
potentially explosive atmospheres:
• Only use the product in accordance with the approved motor data stated on the
nameplates.
• The Ex-approved product must never run dry during normal operation. Dry running
during service and inspection is only permitted outside the classified area.
6Flygt 3201 Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual
• See the dimensional drawings of the product for the minimum permitted water level
according to the ATEX approval. Level-sensing equipment must be installed if the
product can be operated at less than the minimum submersion depth.
• Before you start working with the product, make sure that the product and the control
panel are isolated from the power supply and the control circuit, so they cannot be
energized.
• Do not open the product while it is energized or in an explosive gas atmosphere.
• Make sure that thermal contacts are connected to a protection circuit according to the
approval classification of the product.
• Intrinsically safe circuits are normally required for the automatic level-control system by
the level regulator if mounted in zone 0.
• The yield stress of fasteners must be in accordance with the approval drawing and the
product specification.
• Do not modify the equipment without approval from an authorized Xylem
representative.
