Section 2 – Safety Tips
Health and Safety Tips
Please observe these health and safety recommen-
dations for safe, efficient, and injury-free opera-
tion of your equipment. In this manual, the term
system refers to a complete group of components
associated with the welding of plastic or metal
parts, also known as an ultrasonic assembly sys-
tem. A typical system consists of a generator and/
or ultrasonic process controller, start and stop
switches, power controls, connecting cables, and
the probe assembly which includes the transducer,
booster, horn and replaceable horn tip.
Proper Installation – Operate system components
only after they are properly installed and checked.
No Unauthorized Modifications – Do not modify
your system in any way unless authorized to do so
by Dukane Corporation. Unauthorized modifica-
tions may cause injury to the operator and/or equip-
ment damage. In addition, unauthorized modifi-
cations will void the equipment warranty.
Keep the Cover On – Do not remove the equip-
ment cover unless specifically directed to do so by
Dukane Corporation. The generator produces haz-
ardous electrical voltages which could cause in-
jury.
Grounded Electrical Power – Operate this equip-
ment only with a properly grounded electrical con-
nection. (See Electrical Safety Grounding Instruc-
tions on the next page.)
Comply with Regulations – You may be required
to add accessories to bring the system into com-
pliance with applicable OSHA regulations.
CAUTION
Parts being joined ultra-
sonically sometimes
vibrate at audible fre-
quencies. Wear ear
protection to reduce an-
noying or uncomfortable
sounds. In addition,
sound absorbing materi-
als, enclosures or sound
deflectors may be in-
stalled to reduce the
noise level.
IMPORTANT
Never operate the DPC II
Plus with the cover off.
This is an unsafe practice
and may cause injury.
