Inspection and Maintenance

Inspect the components of the limit switch box for wear or damage and replace
where necessary.
- RECOMMENDED REPLACEMENT PARTS:
1. Limit switch. 3. Housing O-ring.
2. Position indicator O-ring. 4. Shaft O-rings(top and bottom)
Storage
To store ALS series Exd limit switch box, the following cautions are recommended:
- Ensure the flameproof surface have not any paint and scratch.
- Ensure the limit switch box is completely dry and water free.
- Maintain the entrances of cable by fitting the original or replacement plastic corks.
- Protect from dust, dirt and damage by packing in box or plastic bag.
Special Conditions for Safe Use
Repairs of the flameproof joints must be made in compliance with the structural
specifications provided by the manufacturer. Repairs must not be made on the basis
of values specified in tables 1 and 2 of EN/IEC 60079-1.
