The present invention includes an improvement to a conventional explosion-proof electric brake motor having a motor housing, an electrical conduit attached thereto, a brake housing secured to the motor housing and having an electrical attached to the brake housing, a flange secured to the motor housing and adapted to secure the motor to a drive mounting for driving a shaft. The improvement comprises a first housing waterproof means inserted between the motor housing and the brake housing. A first conduit waterproofing means is adapted to seal the brake electrical conduit to the brake housing. A second conduit waterproofing means is adapted to seal the motor electrical conduit to the motor housing. A flange waterproofing means is adapted to seal the flange to the motor housing. Thus, the conventional electric brake motor and the waterproofing means form a submersible, explosion-proof brake motor.
