BOGE Operating instructions for C 16 N...C 30 N, C 16 F N...C 30 F N series screw compressors
12. Undertake conversions and modifications of the compressor only in agree-
ment with BOGE, taking all relevant safety regulations into consideration.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from independent
modifications on the compressor.
13. Never start the compressor when one or serveral parts (e.g. cable, plug)
are damaged, when not in perfect working order and when damage is de-
tected or suspected.
14. Observe all safety and danger signs directly attached on the compressor!
15. To avoid damages, special precautions have to be taken during (re-) oper-
ation of compressors with frequency control, if the frequency converter
was cut off from the power supply for a longer period of time (> 12 months).
In this case please contact the BOGE-Service.
Special hazard warnings
–
Any performance of work on pressurized system components may be car-
ried out by duly qualified and specialized personnel only.
–
Always wear your compulsory personal protective equipment when work-
ing on pressure pipes and connections!
–
A protective grid serves to prevent you from accidentally reaching into the
impeller of the cooling fan.
–
During operation, the compressor generates a high sound pressure level
which may cause permanent hearing damage due to continuous noise
stress. As a rule, the compressor may only be operated with its housing
cover closed. Make sure to additionally wear a hearing protection in case
of a noise pressure level above 80 dB(A)!
–
Any pipelines and/or auxiliary equipment on the compressor are designed
such as to resist to any adverse operating conditions and any predictable
external influences. Make sure to operate your compressor within the
parameters specified in the Technical Data Sheet!
–
Exceeding the max. pressure or simultaneous failure of several safety
devices will cause the safety valve to be activated. There will be risk of
escaping hot air!
WARNING: Risk of injury!
A protective grid serves to prevent you from accidentally reaching into the
impeller of the cooling fan!
Please note that the cooling fan may run on for a certain time even after the
compressor has been switched off!
