Yellow cards, which confirm the construction and maintenance of the valid
US standards, are available for all MKE motors. If required, the Yellow
Cards can be ordered from the particular sales branch.
Note: MKE motors 037, 047 and 098 may be operated in potentially-
explosive areas only in combination with Bosch Rexroth drive
controllers.
