Maintenance 9.2 Corrective Maintenance 9.2.2 Anti-condensation heating Explosion hazard due to improper maintenance of the anti-condensation heating If the anti-condensation heating is not correctly repaired, e.g. if unauthorized or untested spare parts are used, this can result in explosions during operation in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
Maintenance 9.2 Corrective Maintenance WARNING Explosion hazard due to overheating of the rolling bearings If the rolling bearings are not regularly regreased, local overheating may be possible, and, as a consequence, an explosion in an explosive atmosphere. This can result in death, serious injury, or material damage.
Maintenance 9.2 Corrective Maintenance 5. Push the inner ring of the warmed up rolling bearing onto the shaft. Avoid any blows that might damage the bearing. 6. Ensure that the rolling bearing is resting against the shaft shoulder or the 2nd bearing. 7.
