Dietz can offer
motors in both NEMA and IEC frame sizes, which comply with the standards
of all European countries in accordance with(EN 50 014 and EN 50
018) for explosive groups and temperature classes.
Hydrogen is
classified under Apparatus gas Group IIC, Zone 1. Our standard motor
versions correspond to the highest explosion group IIC, and temperature
class T4, which also cover all lower explosion groups and temperature
classes. Type EExde IIC T4 is certified to PTB (Phsysikalisch-Technische
Bundesansaldt to German standard VDE 0171/2-61).
This type of
motor is less expensive than the motors supplied with a type “X”
purging system.
