Dangerous media
Depending on the mode of operation, fan parts may come in contact with
dangerous media.
Work on the fan or carrying out maintenance work is not allowed during
operation. Before carrying out any work, any dangerous media must be removed
from the system and, when required, must be neutralized and secured in such a
way that an inflow of dangerous media is prevented.
1.9
EU conformity of the COLASIT fan
The fan was designed, built and tested to Directive 2006/42/EC.
In addition to this EU Directive and EN standards which have the equivalent status of a Swiss standard,
Swiss safety and accident-prevention regulations have also been taken into account.
An EU Declaration of Conformity in terms of the guidelines 2006/42/EC on machines will be issued
along with the fan.
1.10
Restrictions when commissioning
We stipulate that putting into operation is prohibited as long as the fan, including
all parts belonging to it or equipment connected to it, has not been installed and
checked out and until the operating manual has been read completely before
commissioning.
We stipulate that the fan may only be put into operation when the safety inspector
has given his approval. He is obliged to record this approval in a protocol.
The disregard of these stipulations constitutes negligence.
1.11
General operation conditions
The permissible operating conditions are indicated on the manufacturer‘s plate.
The fan is not suitable for the transport of solids in the air flow. This operating
mode will lead to the destruction of the fan.
The ducts on the intake and delivery sides must always be open. A closed duct will lead to a rise in
temperature which could cause the destruction of the fan.
The minimum air speed through the fan is 5 meters per second.
The maximum air speed may not exceed 30 meters per second through the fan.
The standard motors are designed for normal operating conditions (ambient tempe40°C,
altitude below 1000 m above sea level, air pressure up to 1050 hPa). In case of any divergence from
these conditions, please contact COLASIT.
Compliance with these operating conditions is the responsibility of the operator.
