Tab.5
The classification of gases and vapors into groups with respect to explo-
sion group and temperature class applies for the transferred medium as
well as for the pump surroundings.
Transferred medium The pump may only be used to transfer gases and vapors that belong to
the respective explosion group and corresponding temperature class (or
below) (see designation on the type plate) or that are not explosive and
combustible.
Environment of the pump The pump may only be operated in an environment that contains an at-
mosphere that belongs to the respective explosion group and correspond-
ing temperature class (or below) (see designation on the type plate) or that
is not explosive and not combustible.
