possible hazardous situation Material damage

These operating instructions contain basic instructions for installation, commissioning, maintenance and inspection work which must be obeyed to ensure the safe operation of the machine and prevent physical and material damage. The safety instructions in all sections must be taken into consideration. The operating instructions must be read by the responsible technical personnel/ operator before installing and commissioning and must be fully understood. The contents of the operating instructions must always be available on site for the technical personnel / operator. Instructions ﬁ xed directly onto the machine must be obeyed and must always remain legible. This applies for example to:

• Symbols for connections

• Data and motor data plate

• Instruction and warning plates

The operator is responsible for observing local regulations.

Safety

2.3 Designated use

The machine must only be operated in such areas as are described in the operating instructions:

• only operate the machine in a technically perfect condition

• do not operate the machine when it is only partially assembled

• the machine must only be operated at an ambient temperature of between 5 and 40°C, the temperatures of the media handled may not exceed 60°C Please contact us for temperatures outside this range.

• the machine may convey, compress or extract the following media:

• convey air with a relative humidity up to 90%

• all non-explosive, non-inﬂ ammable, non-ag-

gressive and non-poisonous dry gases and gas air mixtures

• the machine must only be operated under a throttled condition to avoid motor overload, when not connected to a system the machine should not be used

2.4 Unacceptable operating modes

• extracting, conveying and compressing explosive, inﬂ ammable, aggressive or poisonous media, e.g. dust as per ATEX zone 20-22, solvents as well as gaseous oxygen and other oxidants, water vapour, traces of oil, liquids or solid materials

• using the machine in non-commercial plants if the necessary precautions and protective measures have not been taken in the plant

• installing in environments that are at risk of explosions

• using the machine in areas with ionising radiation

• modiﬁ cations to the machine and accessories

Safety

2.5 Personal qualiﬁ cations and training

• Ensure that people entrusted with working on the machine have read and understood these operating instructions before starting work, particularly the safety instructions for installation, commissioning, maintenance and inspection work.

• Manage the responsibilities, competence and monitoring of staff

• all work must only be carried out be technical specialists:

• Installation, commissioning, maintenance

and inspection work

• Working with electricity

• personnel being trained to work on the ma-

chine must be supervised by technical specialists only

2.6 Safety-conscious work

The following safety regulations apply in addition to the safety instructions and intended use listed in these instructions:

• Accident prevention regulations, safety and operating regulations

• the standards and laws in force

2.7 Safety notes for the operator

• hot parts of the machine must not be accessible during operation or must be ﬁ tted with a guard

• eople must not be endangered by the free extraction or discharge of pumped media

• Risks arising from electrical energy must be eliminated.

Safety

2.8 Safety instructions for installing, commissioning and maintenance

• The operator will ensure that any installation, commissioning and maintenance work is carried out by authorised, qualiﬁ ed specialists who have gained sufﬁ cient information by an in-depth study of the operating instructions.

• Only work on the machine when it is idle and cannot be switched on again
