Hazards due to electrical components
WARNING
Hazards due to electrical components
Electrical components operate with voltages which can present hazards
to humans.
u
All work on or with electrical components may only be performed by
trained specialists.
u
Heed any country-specific regulations.
2.6 Deflagration on gas engines
ABB turbochargers can withstand a deflagration with a transient pres-
sure increase of 12 bar.
ABB Turbocharging recommends that, following a deflagration event,
the turbocharger undergoes an inspection of the following points:
¡
Position of the turbine and compressor casings to the bearing casing
¡
Shifting of the bearing casing in relation to the bracket
¡
Cracks in casings
If during external inspection anomalies are found or if a particularly
strong deflagration event has taken place, it is also recommended to
check the bearings of the turbochargers before the next start. This in-
spection and evaluation must be carried out by an ABB Turbocharging
Service Station.
2.7 Lifting loads
WARNING
Suspended loads
Loads not suspended in compliance with regulations may lead to per-
sonal injury or accidents with fatal consequences.
u
Loads must always be fastened to technically perfect lifting gear
with sufficient loading capacity.
u
Make sure the load is suspended properly on the crane hook.
u
Do not let anyone stand beneath a suspended load.
Wear safety gloves to protect against mechanical hazards.
Wear safety helmet.
