Handling hot air/IR dryer slide-in units
D
Hot dryer slide-in units (hot air/IR) pose a risk
of burns. Always let the dryer slide-in units cool
down for a long period of time before touching
them.
D
IR radiation damages the eyes. Avoid looking
directly into the IR radiators.
D
IR radiators are pressure-sensitive. The pinch-
type ducts at the ends are particularly sensitive.
Therefore, take extreme caution when handling
the IR radiators.
D
IR radiators are sensitive to dirt. Grease and
sweat from the hands burn into the quartz pipes
and shorten their lifetime. Always wear clean
gloves when handling IR radiators.
D
If, however, the IR radiator becomes dirty, wipe
it with a soft, lint-free cloth. The front side of the
IR radiators can be cleaned with a cloth that
has been lightly soaked in alcohol. Alcohol must
not
be used to clean the gold-plated back of
the IR radiator.
