About Dust Explosion proof Motors
Explosion-Proof Motor
Dust explosion-proof motors are commonly used in factories and enterprises with high levels of dust, which can prevent combustible dust from being ignited. Many textile manufacturers equip their operating equipment with dust explosion-proof motors to organize the flammable and explosive substances generated by dust. So what are the precautions for dust explosion-proof motors? How to understand dust explosion-proof motors?

What is a dust explosion-proof motor
Dust explosion-proof motor
The motor refers to a motor whose casing is designed and manufactured according to specified conditions, which can prevent dust from entering the motor casing or, although it cannot completely prevent dust from entering, its entry amount does not hinder the safe operation of the motor, and the accumulation of internal dust is not likely to cause ignition hazards. It also does not cause explosive powder and dust mixture explosions in the surrounding area when used.
(1) The shell has high sealing performance to reduce or prevent dust from entering the shell, and even if it does, its entry amount will not pose a risk of ignition.
(2) The maximum allowable surface temperature of the control shell shall not exceed the specified temperature group. Used on mechanized equipment in the national grain reserve warehouse.
Dust explosion-proof motor - sealing structure characteristics
Sealed type refers to the connection between the internal and external components of an explosion-proof motor, which achieves dust-proof effect by adding sealing gaskets. The sealing gasket must be made of asbestos board, rubber board or other durable high-quality materials, and should be suitable for the load conditions and expected working life temperature of the electrical equipment, otherwise it will affect the explosion-proof performance of the motor.
The sealing parts of sealed dust explosion-proof motors mainly refer to the joints between the motor base and the end cover, the joints between the end cover and the outer cover, the joints between the base and the junction box, and the joints between the box base and the box cover.
The sealing between the machine base and the end cover also requires high sealing requirements due to the circumference of the joint surface. In order to achieve sealing performance, the sealing gasket must have a certain degree of elasticity. In order to maintain stable bearing distance of the motor, there must be a positioning structure between the machine base and the end cover, and the positioning cannot be determined by the strength of the sealing gasket.
When the connecting bolts between the end cover and the machine base are tightened, the sealing gasket is compressed and becomes thinner. The end cover will move inward, and the entire bearing chamber will also move accordingly. Mild cases may reduce the axial clearance reserved in the design and the axial clearance of the bearing. In severe cases, it may cause the bearing to jam. Even if it does not jam, when the explosion-proof motor runs, it will inevitably cause high bearing noise, high bearing temperature, and short service life.
