Safety instructions
EB 3962-1 EN 3
General safety instructions
➢ The solenoid valves are to be assembled, started up or operated only by trained
and experienced personnel familiar with the product.
According to these mounting and operating instructions, trained personnel is
referred to as individuals who are able to judge the work they are assigned
to and recognize possible dangers due to their specialized training, their
knowledge and experience as well as their knowledge of the applicable
standards
.
➢ Proper shipping and storage are assumed.
➢ Explosion-protected solenoid valve versions are to be operated only by per-
sonnel who has undergone special training or instructions or who is authorized to work on explosion-protected devices in hazardous areas
.
For technical data, order specifications, spare parts and accessories refer to
Data Sheet T 3962.
➢ Make sure the maximum permissible supply pressure is not exceeded. If neces-
sary, reduce the supply pressure using a suitable supply pressure regulator.
➢ The solenoid valves can be installed in any desired position. Make sure the filter
in the lid and the cable entries point vertically down. If this mounting position is
not possible, install the solenoid valves with the filter and cable entries in horizontal position.
Important!
➢ For installation and maintenance work on the solenoid valves, make sure the
relevant plant section has been depressurized and, depending on the process medium, drained as well. Due to the high surface resistance, avoid
electrostatic charging when mounting or servicing the solenoid valves in
hazardous areas. Do not loosen the enameled screws on the housing.
➢ The solenoid valves can be mounted on rotary actuators, linear actuators or
control valves with a NAMUR rib using mounting kits. Observe the associated mounting instructions.
