The device has been extensively tested in our 
premises before delivery, the safety equipment has 
been checked and the results have been 
documented in a test report. The prescribed 

electrical tests according to VDE 0113 (EN 60204-1) 
(e.g. isolation resistance, measurement of PE 
conductor) have been carried out and documented 
by the manufacturer. 

1.2.2 Responsibilities of the system 

operator 

The operator is obliged to issue a risk assessment 
and to train the employees (operating personnel, 
maintenance personnel) regarding the handling of 
the device. The operating manual informs the 
system operator about the possible dangers that 
may arise from the device. The respective safety 
instructions are indicated in this operating manual 
and can be used for the risk assessment and 
operation training. 

To create a risk assessment, Dymax Europe 
recommends reading the brochure "Risk 
assessment - hazard catalog" (A017 (BGI 
571) ISBN 978-3-920506-38-8) from the 
German Professional Association of Raw 
Materials and Chemical Industry (BG RCI). 

1.3 External interfaces 

The system is equipped with external interfaces 
which are described in detail in the manual. The 
circuit diagram clearly shows and documents the 
details of the external interface in the item "Machine 
interface".

Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g. 
UV safety goggles) when working on and with 
the device. 

 

Check the connections to the power system at 
regular intervals and replace them in case of
