2.3 Protecting Staff and Third Parties
The equipment has been built in compliance with the strictest safety standards and is fitted with safety de -
vices able to protect its components and the operators.
For obvious reasons, the manufacturer cannot envisage all the potential types of installations and environ-
ments where the equipment will be installed; the Customer must therefore clearly inform the manufacturer
of specific conditions of installation. DELIOS s.r.l. cannot accept responsibility if the DLS system is incor -
rectly installed and shall not be liable for other systems located upstream or downstream of the equipment
supplied.
• The operators must be correctly informed. The operators must therefore read and follow the technical
instruction contained in this manual and its enclosed documents.
• The instructions provided in this manual do not replace the safety regulations and the installation and
operational technical data printed on the products, nor do they replace the current safety standards
enforced in the country where the equipment is installed and the rules dictated by common sense.
• The manufacturer is available to provide the theoretical or practical training to operators, both on their
site or on the customer's premises, as specified at the time of drawing up the contract.
• The equipment must not be used if any operating fault is identified.
• Temporary repairs should be avoided; repair work must be carried out only with genuine spare parts,
which must be installed according to the intended use.
• Responsibilities arisen from commercially purchased components are delegated to the manufacturers
of such components.
Avoid touching the inverter enclosure during the equipment operation.
The inverter enclosure could overheat during its operation and cause burns by contact.
Guards or covers can be removed only 10 minutes after disconnecting the inverter from the power supply
to allow its components to cool down and any static electricity storage devices to discharge.
As soon as it is switched off, the surface of the equipment could be hot, therefore great care must be taken.
In the event of a fire, CO2 foam fire extinguishers must be used and self vacuum systems must be used to
put out fires in enclosed spaces.
Should the noise level exceed legal limits, the working area must be circumscribed and all the people who
have access to the area must wear ear defenders or ear plugs.
The noise level produced by the inverter in normal working conditions is: < 50db.
During the installation procedure, special attention must be paid to fixing the equipment and its compo -
nents.
During this stage, circumscribing and preventing access to the installation area is recommended.
Clothing and PPE Worn by Staff
Installers are recommended to wear clothing and PPE provided by their employer. Staff must not wear
clothes or accessories that could start fires or produce static electricity or, generally speaking, any item of
clothing that could affect personal safety. When carrying out any operation on the equipment, clothes and
instruments must be suitably insulated.
Ex: class 0, category RC insulated gloves
Maintenance operations must be strictly carried out with the equipment disconnected from the mains, from
the PV generator and from the batteries.
Staff must NOT access the equipment with bare feet or wet hands.
The maintenance engineer must always ensure that nobody else is able to reset or operate the equipment
during the maintenance stages and must report any fault or deterioration caused by wear or by ageing, in
order to restore the correct safety conditions.
The installer or maintenance engineer must always pay attention to the working environment, to ensure it
is well lit and has a suitable escape route.
