Warning
Before the initial operation, this instructions
manual must be completely read and understood by the user in order to prevent damage
and danger to life and property throughthe operation of the video endoscope system (the device). The operation of the device without the
understanding of the instructions manual is not
allowed under any circumstances. The device
has to be used exclusively by trained operators.
It is absolutely not suited for any medical or veterinary application and must never be operated by private users.
For a generally non-destructiveoperationof the
device, beside the safety of the personnel and
environment,an extensive knowledge of the device, the inspection technology, the safety instructions as well as the field of application are
absolutely necessary!
The device must never be connected to electric
mains, if you have not understood thisinstruction
includingsafetywarnings or even if you have not
understood individual sections or if you cannot
or do not wish to use the device in
accordance with the regulations.
FORT®is not liable under any circumstances for
the consequences of misinterpretation or faulty
inspectionresults, which were achievedwiththe
device.
FORT
®

Compulsory instructions
for a safe start-up in
accordance with
regulations. Reading
beforethe initial operation
is compulsory!
For compulsory attention:
Warning against risk of injury or
loss of life to humans
Warning against significant risk of
damage to device and plant
Warning against fatal electric shock
Warning against life-threatening
explosion risk
Warning against life-threatening
fire risk
Warning
Warning
www.fort-fr.com
The device must never be opened by the user at any place. Life-threatening electric currents are used
or generated in the device; in particular, the device must never be used with the housing open. The device must never be used when there are audibly loose parts inside the device.
Before start-up, the device must be acclimatized according to the ambient temperature.
This is valid in particular for cooled devices, wherein condensate accumulation during warm-up
can lead to destruction and damage due to electric spark over.
Never operate the device under conditions which do not comply with the operating conditions
or storage conditions described in the instructions manual!
The device must be checked annually by the manufacturer or an authorized third party for
compliance with the electrical safety instructions obligatory at the usage site and conformance
with the as-delivered condition of the device. The device must not be connected to the electric
supply mains or otherwise operated after the ascertainment of a defect or any deviation from the
as-delivered condition. This is valid, in particular, if the device has tumbled or fallen down or was
exposed to a liquid.
The device must never be operated in operating environments which are vulnerable to explosion
or fire risk. The device is not equipped with safety devices or acceptance for operation in
environments vulnerable to explosion or fire risk. An impermissible employment in environments
susceptible to explosion or fire leads unavoidably to a device-induced life-threatening explosion
and to a fire in the plant. The operator is obliged to check the plant for substances vulnerable to
explosion or fire before every new start-up of the device.
:: Warning
Never allow the device to be operated without supervision.
For safety reasons, it is necessary to switch-off the machine during pauses.
Never operate the device in radio-actively contaminated environment!
Never expose the probe to ionizing radiation of any type!
The device must be transported exclusively in the transport case conceived for it by the
manufacturer. The device and the corresponding accessories must be packed in the transport
case only according to the instructions at hand.
For increasing your own safety against electric shocks with risk of injury or loss of life, the
device must always be connected and operated via a residual current circuit breaker system
or an isolating transformer. This can in any case be a compulsory condition depending upon the
operating environment. For this, consult your responsible safety in-charge or the accident
protection measures in force in your respective country.
The use of too long power extension cords is life-threatening and forbidden (max. 25 m in case of
a supply line made of copper 3 x 1.5 mm2). Hereby, a life-threatening loss of the protective function
of the upstream safety element is possible. At the same time, voltage differences of the earth
potential as compared to the displaced reference point of electric output (bridged by a too long
extension cord) could cause dangerous electric currents on contact with the device housing or
impermissibly high equalizing currents at the probe. In case of uncertainties, consult your on-site
electrical expert.
Warning
www.fort-fr.com
Exclusively the FORT®accessory articles or spare parts described in this instructions manual may be
used in connection with the device. Always consult and follow the national and international
operations and safety regulations, Norms or regulatory authority’s advice.
The device can be connected to the public electric supply mains through a ‘IEC-plug lead’ included
in the delivery or a ‘IEC-plug lead’ which complies with the local socket standards.
The system accepts faultlessly all power supplies known worldwide with alternate currents of
96 VAC to 246 VAC at 46 to 60 Hz. For safe operation, the device needs a reliable potential earth (PE)
connection. In case of doubt, an expert or the manufacturer must be consulted.
The minimum output supplied by the power connection can be derived from the device
specifications contained in the instructions.
:: Warning
When operating the device outside the permissible operating conditions or with destruction caused
by usage which deviates from the instructions, non-compliance with the operating conditions or
through the usage of non-original spare parts or accessories as well as through impermissible
opening of the device, the guarantee obligation or the guarantee commitment by the supplier or
manufacturer lapses, in principle.
When operating the device outside the permissible operating conditions or with destruction caused
by usage which deviates from the instructions, non-compliance with the operating conditions or
through the usage of non-original spare parts or accessories as well as through impermissible opening of the device, the guarantee obligation or the guarantee commitment by the supplier or manufacturer lapses, in principle.
Never connect a triploar plug to a bipolar socket! Avoid any contact between VISIO PRIME
(and all working equipment) and components carrying electrical charges.
The system must be earthed properly in case of an electrified application in relationship to the
ground. If impossible, connect the system to the application or the ground (depending on which one
the user needs to touch). The user needs to be isolated against the current path of the earthed path.
Never insert the probe in plant parts the contents of which are unknown!
Never bring the probe in contact with corrosive substances of any kind (acid or alkali).
Risk of damage and injury while manipulating the probe. Never bring the probe in contact
with solvent containing liquids! Risk of damage!
The video probe of the device must never be used in or in the vicinity of apparatus or equipment,
which are partly or fully energized by electric current of any type (e.g. transformers, motors,
generators, switchboards etc.). The metallic mesh of the probe conducts electricity and dangerous
currents are transmitted during every contact or even short-circuits can be triggered in the plant.
The device must never be operated with damaged video probe. There is a risk of damage to hand
due to the metallic protective mesh (suggestion: always wear work gloves for protection).
At the same time, there is a danger that liquids might penetrate the probe and thereby impair the
functioning permanently or might cause a life-threatening electric shock to the operator!
Even the use of a slightly damaged probe can quickly lead to the total destruction of the probe
due to destruction of the light fibres or the electric conductors lying inside. The operation of a
damaged probe is impermissible within the area of jurisdiction of the European Union, since the
regulations on emission of electro-magnetic radiation can no longer be adhered to with safety.
Warning
:: Warning
www.fort-fr.com
Do not insert the insert tube into any flammable gas or liquid (such as a fuel tank) to avoid dangers.
Avoid direct exposure to sunlight for long periods of time.
Please do not use the VISIO PRIME in a medical facility or on an airplane, as the wireless signal
may interfere with other critical equipment nearby.
Do not heavy force to screw the probe head further than half a screw for focussing. Screwing
further using force damages the entire probe head and optics!
Never insert the probe in plant parts, if weld or cutting work is being undertaken simultaneously or
soon. Likewise, the probe must never be inserted if further inspection procedures like eddy current
or radiography tests are being undertaken on the same plant part. Never insert the probe in plant
parts, which are not fully switched-off (e.g. danger from rotating plant components) or cooled down.
Never look directly at the light emission in the camera head. There is danger of lasting
eye injury or at least a long-lasting eye irritation with accidental consequences through a
temporarily restricted power of vision.
Avoid tight coils or even knots in the tube. Do not step onto the insertion tube or camera head.
Do not smash the camera head with it’s optics onto the floor or cause any other possible impact to
the instrument. This can damage your probe!
Do not use the probe for transporting the system! This can damage your probe!
To transport the system use the handle on the control unit.
