Danger
If the loading and unloading system is used in an inexpert or improper manner by
unqualified statt, it can cause danger to life and limb for the user or for third parties,
possibly resulting in death.
During operation, the bottom valves of the loaded and unloaded tanks are under
pressure. During the loading and unloading procedure all other components are also
under pressure. In this condition, screws as well as nuts and bolts of the loading and
unloading system must not be slackened. Liquid or vaporizing fluids might escape and
could cause severe cases of poisoning and environmental pollution.
During the loading and unloading procedure do not leave the installation unattended.
The shut-off valves might be cold during the loading and unloading procedure. Make sure
that the operator wears protective gloves when operating the handwheels.
Any installation or removal work may only be performed when the tank is at zero pressure
and completely free of gas.
When carrying out installation and maintenance work, make sure that the tank cannot be
operated accidentally.
