    Explosion-proof For Hazardous Locations
    Underwriters Laboratories And Canadian Standards Association Listed
    General Specifications:
    These explosion-proof motors are designed and approved for application in hazardous environments having certain explosive gases or materials present.

    Features:
  • Rugged mechanical construction meeting all requirements for safety. UL and CSA listed.
  • Double shielded, pre-lubricated ball bearings are standard.
  • All motors have inherent automatic overload protection.
  • NEMA 1.15 service factor except as noted.
    Explosion-proof conduit box included at no extra cost.
  • Normally-closed thermostats are standard on cast iron motors.
  • >Division I areas are environments where a hazard is present continuously or would be subject to fire or explosion if the hazard was present as a result of an accident or uncommon occurrence.
  • Division II areas are environments where the threat of fire or explosion is not normally present and not likely to result in the event of an abnormal occurrence.

    Application Notes:
    These motors must be applied in accordance with the National Electrical Code, Article #500. A partial listing of explosive agents is noted below. Consult NFPA Publication 497M for a complete listing. Please note headings and footnotes for qualifications of specific LEESON motors.
