Niro Soavi S.p.A
2.10. NOTES ON MACHINE TEST
Before shipment all of our machines are accurately tested by qualified
personnel through operational tests which simulate the normal working
conditions.
Through the operational tests - run with cold water - it is possible to verify the
actual performance of the machine against the design data, the calibration of
safety, control and check devices, the conditions of any seals, as well as the
noise and vibration-free operation of the machine and the parameters
introduced in any programmable instruments or equipment that might be used.
To test the conditions of operation of the machine (flow rate with the maximum
operating pressure allowed, noise level, electric absorption) the machine is run
with water at a temperature of approximately 20 °C, so it is possible to verify the
deviation of the machine’s actual flow rate compared to the rated value ± 5%
with product.
However, at the time of start-up, after the machine has been installed in the
production line, a final test of the conditions of operation is required.
Upon request of the Customer, NIRO SOAVI can dispatch an engineer for the
first machine start-up in order to check that the wiring has been executed
correctly and that the machine has been properly installed, besides providing
any additional information or instruction to the operators and service personnel
with reference to this Manual.
CAUTION: Should the Customer decide not to ask for the attendance of
our engineer at the time of the start-up, NIRO-SOAVI shall not be liable for
damages to persons or property caused by failure to observe the
instructions provided in this Manual (INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND
MAINTENANCE).
