Inspection, Maintenance and Repairs
(according to IEC/EN 60079-17 and IEC/EN 60079-19)
WARNING
Disconnect power supply before installing or servicing these
enclosures.
Ensure that only authorised and trained personnel perform
repairs and maintenance work on equipment that is placed into
a hazardous area. The training has included instruction on the
various types of protection and installation practices, the relevant
rules and regulations and on the general principles of area
classification.
Care must be taken to maintain the integrity of the type
of protection provided for the enclosure; this may require
consultation with the manufacturer. You may need to confirm that
the working area is free of gas and dust before beginning work.

Inspection

After opening an enclosure, a visual inspection of the lid gasket must be
performed to ensure no foreign objects may interfere with the enclosure
sealing function.
A visual inspection of the apparatus shall be carried out appropriate to the
installation environment.
Inspection should include verification that all certification details are clearly
legible and that lid & gland plate (where fitted) screws are secured to the
correct torque. Checks should also include that there is no ingress (dust
or liquid) inside the enclosure and that all cable glands and main earth
connections are in good order.
During each inspection, the enclosure should be cleaned with a damp cloth.
