These safety instructions do not make allowance for any:
• Contingencies and events which may arise during the installation, operation and maintenance of the devices.
• Local safety regulations – the operator is responsible for observing these regulations, also with reference to the
installation personnel.
danger – high pressure!
• Before dismounting pneumatic lines and valves, turn off the pressure and vent the lines.
risk of electric shock!
• Before reaching into the device or the equipment,
switch off the power supply and secure to prevent
reactivation!
• Observe applicable accident prevention and safety regulations for electrical equipment!
risk of burns/risk of fire if used continuously through hot device surface!
• Keep the device away from highly flammable substances and media and do not touch with bare hands.
general hazardous situations.
To prevent injury, ensure:
• That the system cannot be activated unintentionally.
• Installation and repair work may be carried out by authorized technicians only and with the appropriate tools.
• After an interruption in the power supply or pneumatic supply, ensure that the process is restarted in a defined
or controlled manner.
• The device may be operated only when in perfect condition and in consideration of the operating instructions.
• Note that pipes and valves must not become detached in systems which are under pressure.
• Before reaching into the system, always switch off the power supply!
• Design the pressure supply with the largest possible volume to prevent a pressure drop when the system is
switched on.
• The general rules of technology apply to application planning and operation of the device.
NoTE!
Operate system with direct current only!
To prevent damage to the system, use only direct current for the system power supply.
prevent a pressure drop!
To prevent a pressure drop, design the system pressure supply with the largest possible volume.
electrostatic sensitive components / assemblies!
The device contains electronic components which react sensitively to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Contact
with electrostatically charged persons or objects is hazardous to these components. In the worst case scenario,
they will be destroyed immediately or will fail after start-up.
• Observe the requirements in accordance with EN 61340-5-1 and 5-2 to minimize or avoid the possibility of
damage caused by sudden electrostatic discharge!
• Also, ensure that you do not touch electronic components when the power supply voltage is present!
