Catalogue helps users specify motors for hazardous areas
Motors for Hazardous Areas is ABB's 255-page, full-colour catalogue detailing motors designed to meet the toughest safety standards in many of the world's most strictly regulated environments, where flammable gas, vapour or dust may be present.
As well as details of the ABB product range, the catalogue also explains the applicable regulatory requirements, helping users make the right equipment choices. Both low and high voltage motors are available. Low voltage versions come in sizes from 71 to 450 to cover 0.25 to 1000kW. High voltage motor sizes range from 315 to 710 for 110 to 4500kW.
Motors for Hazardous Areas is free on request from ABB's freephone Brochureline on 0800 783 7491 or from the website, www.abb.co.uk/energy.
