Improperly chosen electric motors, operating in hazardous environments containing combustible materials, tend to pose serious threats. Sparks, arcs, and high temperatures on the surface tend to ignite the close by hazardous substances that cause explosion also. The commonly reported consequences are production downtime, serious injuries, deaths, loss to the building, damage to machines, failure in processing system etc. The selection of proper motor of a premium brand is the only way to operate safely in Zone II areas. A wide range of Crompton Greaves flame proof motors gives you enough options to choose the best suitable for the environment, application, power supply, working conditions etc.
