eric, that is a crock of squat. bilge blowers are required to be "ignition
protected" (look it up, for it has nothing to do with spark plugs at all).


Maybe you can tell us, "How to make a 12Vdc Motor that has brushes and
can't cause sparks between those brushes and the commutator"? It can't
be done, Dufus. What can be done, is to seal the motor as best you can,
and then mount it above the expected location of the explosive gases,
with a suction hose down to the lower bilge area, and a VERY short
discharge line.

How do they make industrial electric motors explosion proof?
