Safety instructions
1.1
Range of application
AUMA Industry & Marine actuators are designed for the operation of industrial valves, e.g. globe valves, gate valves, butterfly valves and ball
valves. AUMA Industry & Marine is not liable for any possible damage resulting from use in other than the designated applications. Such
risk lies entirely with the user. Observance of these operation instructions is considered as part of the actuators designated use.
1.2
Short description
AUMA Industry & Marine actuators have a modular design. Motor and gearing are mounted in a common housing. The actuators are driven
by an electric motor and controlled with the electronic controls PROFIBUS PBD 100. The electronic controls are included in the scope of
delivery.
1.3
Commissioning
(electrical connection)
During electrical operation certain parts inevitably carry lethal voltages. Work on the electrical system or equipment must only be carried out
by a skilled electrician himself or by specially instructed personnel under the control and supervision of such an electrician and in
accordance with the applicable electrical engineering rules.
1.4
Maintenance
The maintenance instructions must be strictly observed, otherwise a safe operation of the actuator is no longer guaranteed.
1.5
Warnings and notes
Non-observance of the warnings and notes may lead to serious injuries or damages. Qualified personnel must be thoroughly familiar with all
warnings and notes in these operation instructions. Correct transport, proper storage, mounting and installation, as well as careful
commissioning are essential to ensure a trouble-free and safe operation. The following references draw special attention to safety-relevant
procedures in these operation instructions. Each is marked by the appropriate pictograph.
This pictograph means: Note!
“Note” marks activities or procedures which have major influence on the correct
operation. Non-observance of these notes may lead to consequential damage.
This pictograph means: Electrostatically endangered parts (ESD)!
If this pictograph is attached to a printed circuit board, it contains parts which may be damaged or destroyed by electrostatic
discharges. If the boards need to be touched during setting, measurement or for exchange, it must be assured that immediately
before a discharge through contact with an earthed metallic surface (e.g. the housing) has taken place.
This pictograph means: Warning!
