Product Description
The Explosion-Proof Control Box controls Start and Stop functions and Run or Jog selections. This control box is used when a 460 motor voltage is desired with the explosion proof motor on the Morse Hydra Lift Drum Roller, SKU 455EX.
Explosion-Proof Control Packages have no wiring from the NEMA 7/9 control box to the motor. Please consult an electrician to complete the wiring in accordance to your local code.
For OSHA compliance in the USA, see OSHA subpart O.1910.212 (a) (4) "Barrels, containers, and drums. Revolving drums, barrels, and containers shall be guarded by an enclosure which is interlocked with the drive mechanism, so that the barrel, drum, or container cannot revolve unless the guard enclosure is in place." One way to accomplish this is with a Morse enclosure (Part Number GEK-456-E3) with safety interlock, so the rotator automatically turns off when enclosure door is opened. Power connections and motor controls must also comply with applicable local codes.
Install all Morse Rotators in accordance with local requirements for enclosure and safety interlock, etc.
