– Installation of a vibration monitor in Ex-version (accessory)
The vibration monitor must be installed on the casing and may not lie in the range of rotation of the
impeller zone .
The air gap (see Fig . 3) may not be influenced by the installation of the vibration monitor!
3 .4
Center of gravity
A motor protrusion arises depending on the size and motor power and thus an unbalanced center of gravity outside
of the housing. For centering the balance point an extension duct is to be used (Fig. 4).
The weights of the respective types are to be found on the type plate!
