We have installed a lot of equipment in different classes of Hazardous Environments and found that something that most people forget (when engineering) is the Flash Point or the Temperature at which the product (which created the hazard) will ignite.
Depending on the Flash Point it may be necessary to shut down the equipment if the outside temperature reaches (usually before) the potential ignition point.
This can affect not just motors no matter what size, but lighting also.
We actually did installations in areas where they cooled the area to prevent “Potential Problems” with interlocking and safety’s to alarm and or shut down the process should the cooling shut down.
Hope this falls in line with your question.
