Safety
When using industrial equipment and plants, one must
be aware of the fact that moving parts (rotary motion),
high voltage components, as well as parts subject
to high temperatures may cause serious damage to
persons and things.
The persons in charge of safety must ensure that:
• an incorrect use or handling shall be avoided;
• the safety devices are neither removed nor tampered
with;
• the machine is regularly serviced;
• only original spare parts are used, especially in the
case of safety-related components (ex.: protection
microswitches, thermostat);
• suitable personal protective equipment is used;
• high care must be paid during hot product cycling;
• high care must be paid to moving parts.
To achieve the above, the following is necessary:
• the use and maintenance manual relating to the
machine is available at the working place;
• such documentation must be carefully read and the
instructions must be strictly followed;
• only suitably skilled personnel should be assigned to
electrical equipment;
IMPORTANT
Make sure that no technician will ever carry out operations
outside his own knowledge and responsibility sphere.
