5.1 Environmental installation conditions
Siemens Leading Edge Protection Dryer is only suitable
for use in enclosed, dry and covered premises.
Ensure that there is sufficient space away from objects,
walls and ceilings before installation.
It is important to ensure that the minimum distances (ac-
cording to the relevant national regulations and work-
place regulations) to the hall walls or other equipment,
escape routes, etc. are kept to ensure safe working.
The floor should be flat with a maximum gradient of
2.5% (1/40, i.e., 2.5 cm per 100 cm) and the load capac-
ity of the floor must be able to bear the permissible total
weight of the dryer. The operator of the dryer is respon-
sible for selecting a suitable installation site.
The dryer is only to be used at sites with temperatures
ranging from 10°C to 50°C.
An adequately sized compressed air connection (hose
1/2 “, Pmax = 8 bar) must be provided.
Use dehumidified, non-lubricated compressed air only.
A filter regulator must only be installed in the air supply
line (air filter and water separator).
6. Basic instruction for operation
Move the dryer to the site where you want to use it. This
can only be done from the shorter side of the undercar-
riage with help of a fork lift or by pushing or pulling in
the four handlebars one at each corner of the mobile
dryer. For manual movement it is recommended to be at
least two persons to maintain safe and ergonomic work.
The dryer is only to be moved when it is in the start posi-
tion (completely lowered) and without anybody or any
load on it.
Small adjustments length and sideways can be made
in elevated positions to get the green lights from the
distance indicators. All movements of the IRT Siemens
Leading Edge Protection Dryer are to be made with help
of the four handle bars one at each corner at the base.
No adjustments or movement of the dryer are to be
made by applying force to the scissor/lifting part of the
mobile dryer or frame with the IR heaters mounted on
the lifting platform.
Stop the undercarriage from moving by locking the
brakes on the four rollers. Check that the brakes are
working!
Watch your step carefully and keep a safe distance from
other objects, escape routes, walls and ceilings.
The maximum permissible gradient is 2.5% (1/40, cor-
responding to 2.5 cm per 100 cm).
Use a coupling connector to connect to the line’s quick-
release coupling (Pmax = 8 bar/on-site supply). The
coupling must lock into place!
The dryer has an
EMERGENCY-RELEASE switch
. The
platform can be lowered by a person standing next
to the platform in the case of a control valve failure. In
this case, the emergency release switch must be held
pressed down until the start position is reached.
Proceed as follows to lift the IR platform:
Open the shut-off valve on the hand lever valve. Press
the hand lever valve upwards and hold it until there until
the required lifting height or the end position is reached.
Take note of the hazardous areas whenever possible.
Releasing the hand lever valve automatically returns the
valve back to the 0 position and the lifting process is ter-
minated immediately. The lifting process stops automati-
cally when the maximum lifting height is reached.
Proceed as follows to lower the IR platform:
Check the hazardous area to make sure no persons or
objects are in the dryer´s working area.
Press the hand lever valve downward and hold it there
until the start position is reached or the lowering process
is automatically terminated. Take note of the hazardous
areas whenever possible.
Releasing the hand lever valve automatically returns the
valve back to the 0 position and the lowering process is
terminated immediately.
Close the shut-off valve on the hand lever valve before
leaving.
