Handling flammable liquids, explosion protection measures
During the handling, storage and dispensing of substances which can create an explosive atmosphere,
the requirements of ATEX Directive 94/9/EC and 1999/92/EC must be observed in addition to the 11th
Machinery Safety Law (GSGV) and the Industrial Safety Regulations (BetrSichV). Depending on the Ex-
zone, suitable protective measures are to be taken. Emphasis must be laid on preventing a build-up of
explosive atmosphere by altering the concentration (eg ensuring sufficient ventilation), operating
conditions, and constructive organisation (eg using suitable and approved containers, suitable storage
facilities).
It must be ensured that sources of ignition caused by electrostatic charges are avoided by using electrical
equipotential bonding. Mechanically produced sparks must be avoided by using suitable tooling, transport
and loading equipment for example. Thermal ignition sources must be avoided by using suitable
techniques, prevention of friction, lightening protection, and the prohibition of open flames, open lights
and smoking.
Organisational measures such as the identification of areas, implementation of warning signs and access
prevention for unauthorised personnel are required.
Equipment must be maintained in good condition, operated correctly and regularly inspected. Any necessary
repairs must be carried out immediately. Repairs which may affect the explosion protection of a piece of
equipment must only be carried out by the manufacturer.
Check that the coating on the load bearing parts of the drum lifter is in perfect condition. If corrosion is
present, the drum lifter may not be used.
Storage requirements as per TRGS 510 must be observed.
