General information

1.1. Safety

All work must be carried out in
compliance with the relevant health and 
safety regulations. In Germany these are 
the accident prevention regulations 
according to BGV C22. These can be 
viewed on the website of the construc-
tion industry accident insurance body 
(“Berufsgenossenschaft der Bauwi //
www.bgbau-medien.de); the earthworks, 
tank installation and excavation work 
must be carried out according to DIN 
18300, DIN 4124, EN 1610 and the 
DWA-A 139 and ATV-DVWK-A 127 
standards.

Accessing the tank without appropriate 
soil cover is not planned and should be 
avoided; should it nonetheless be
absolutely necessary due to the
installation conditions, particular
safeguards must be taken by a 2nd 

person (risk of slipping or similar)

Furthermor e, the relevant regulations 
and standards must be taken into 
account during installation, assembly,
maintenance, repair, etc. Appropriate 
instructions are given in the
corresponding sections of these
instructions.

The entire system must be shut down (if 
electrical installations are mounted) and 
secured against unauthorised switching 
on before carrying out any work on the 
system or system parts.

The tank cover must be kept closed at all 
times, except when work is being carried 
out in the tank, otherwise there is a very-
high accident risk.
Any transport packagings of openings 

are neither accessible nor child-safe and 
must be replaced with suitable covers or 
pipe connections immediately after
delivery.

ACO offers a comprehensive range of 
accessory parts, which are all
coordinated with each other and can be 
combined to form complete systems. 
The list of optional accessory parts can 
be found online at www.rain4me.aco.
Use of other accessory parts can result 
in impairment of the system’s functional 
capability and cancels liability for any 
resulting damage.
