Electrical safety
The AD range of extraction units are designed to meet the safety requirements of the
Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC (previously numbered 73/23/EEC) and UL61010-
1.
Warning
During works with the pump/motor housing open, live, 230/115 volt
components are accessible. Make sure that rules and regulations
for work on live components are always observed.
Important
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
1. Always isolate the system from the mains power supply before
removing the pump/motor panel.
2. Use only as described in the manual.
3. Connect to a properly grounded outlet.
Dangers to eyes, breathing and skin
Once used, the filters in the AD range of extraction units contain a mixture of
particulates, some of which may be sub micron size. When the used filters are
moved it may agitate some of this particulate, which could get into the breathing zone
and eyes of the operative. Additionally, depending on the materials being lasered, the
particulate may be an irritant to the skin.
Caution: When changing used filters always wear mask, safety glasses and gloves.
Please note the media in the gas filter fitted in this unit is capable of adsorbing a wide
range of organic compounds. However, it is the responsibility of the user to ensure it
is suitable for the particular application it is being used on.
This unit should not be used on processes with sparks of flammable materials or with explosive
dusts and gases, without implementation of additional precautions.
