Flame Proof
Product Description
The use of electrical motors in potentially explosive atmospheres is quite frequent these days. These motors have to be constructed in such a way that there is no risk of an explosion. An Explosion occurs when the following situations occur:
Presence of potentially explosive atmosphere
Existence of a source of ignition
Possibility of transmission of the explosion
ABB motors of flame proof design (type JHX) are TEFC, 3 phase squirrel cage induction motor (as per IS:2148 – 2004) for operation in hazardous location classified as Zone 1 and Zone 2 areas as per IS:5572.
Type : JHX Series
