Explosion-protected Motors

Drive Systems

Information

In explosion hazard areas, systems and components must comply with the appropriate national regulations of the country in which they are operated. Within the EU, this is Directive 2014/34/EU. NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has decades of experience with gas and Dust Explosion Protection and offers particularly robust Electric Motors with powers from 0.12 to 200 kW especially for this field of use.

In addition to explosion protection requirements, these motors also meet requirements which are not specified for explosion protection, such as Ecodesign, EMC and the RoHS Directive.

In addition to motors for the European market, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS also offers Explosion-protected Motors for many other regions of the world, e.g. Russia, the USA or according to the IEC EX standard.

These motors are extensively protected against explosion and are specially constructed for applications in potentially explosive dust or gas atmospheres. Our Explosion-protected Motors are used in a wide variety of applications, e.g to drive pumps, agitators or lifting gear.

Features

Our Explosion-protected Motors can be operated in category 2D or 3D dust atmospheres (Zones 21 and 22) as well as in category 2G or 3G gas atmospheres (Zones 1 and 2).

NORD DRIVESYSTEM works very closely with the Physikalisch-Technischen Bundesanstalt (PTB) and the DEKRA EXAM GmbH to maintain the quality of production, inspection and products at the very highest level. All Category 2 motors have type test certification.

NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has many years experience with Gas and Dust Explosion Protection and for more than a decade has produced Explosion-protected Motors which meet even the most stringent requirements.
