2 Safety
2.1 Introduction
Turbochargers manufactured by ABB are state of the art and comply
with the pertinent safety and health-protection requirements that ap-
plied when the turbocharger was manufactured. Consequently, the tur-
bocharger is safe to operate. Nevertheless, during turbocharger opera-
tion and when working on the turbocharger, residual risks can exist
which:
¡
originate from the turbocharger itself and its accessories
¡
originate from the operating and auxiliary materials used
¡
are the consequence of insufficient observance of the safety instruc-
tions
¡
are the consequence of unsatisfactory and improper execution of
maintenance and inspection work.
The operating company is responsible for access to the turbocharger as
well as the organisational measures that regulate the safe handling of
the turbocharger by its personnel.
All instructions contained in this chapter must be observed for safe and
trouble-free operation of the turbocharger and during all work on the
turbocharger.
All further safety instructions contained and specifically identified in
every chapter of this manual (see section Definition of Safety Instruc-
tions) must also be observed.
