Important Safety Information
0.1 Mechanical hazards
1
Avoid exposing any part of the human body to the vacuum.
2
Never operate the pump without a connected intake line or without fit-
ting a blank flange.
3
Do not operate the pump with any of the covers removed.
Serious injury may result.
4
The location at which the TRIVAC BCS (including its accessories) is
being operated should be such that angles over 10° from the vertical
are avoided.
5
The pump when filled with oil must only be moved in its vertical positi-
on. Spilled oil involves the risk of falling.
6
Make sure that the gas flow from the exhaust port is not blocked or
restricted in any way.
7
If exhaust gases must be collected or contained, do not allow the
exhaust line to become pressurised.The pressure in the oil box must
not exceed 0.5 bar (g). An exhaust line which is too small in diameter
or which is blocked can result in the formation of overpressures within
the pump. Possible consequences can be a damaged or even burst
open pump. Thus the exhaust line must be checked from time to time
to ensure that there are no obstructions.
8
When moving the TRIVAC BCS always use the allowed means.
0.2 Electrical hazards
1
The electrical connections must only be provided by a trained electri-
cian as specified, for example, by the regulations EN 50110-1.
Observe local regulations.
2
Lethal voltages are present at the mains connections. Before starting
with any maintenance and service work, de-energise (lockout/tagout)
the product first.
3
Lay connecting lines so that they cannot be damaged. Protect the
lines against humidity and contact with water. Avoid any heat stress on
the line due to unfavourable laying conditions.
4
Suitably support the connecting lines so that the pumps are not
exposed to any major mechanical stress.
5
After a mains power failure the pump will run up automatically again.
This also applies in the case of an emergency shutdown. In order to
prevent the pump from running up automatically again, the pump must
be inte grated within a control arrangement such that it can only be
switched on manually again after the mains power has returned.
6
Provide an adequate ground connection for the pump so as to avoid
any electrostatic charging.
