Installation and maintenance should be undertaken
by a competent person. National and local codes of
practice, Environmental regulations and Health and
Safety Directives must be adhered to and take
precedence
over any stated or implied practices within this
document.
For fluids having low conductivity, there exists the
possibility of the generation of static
electricity during the use with all-polypropylene
components. This could potentially lead to a static
electricity discharge resulting in the ignition of a
potentially explosive atmosphere where such an
atmosphere is present.
These Pall products are not suitable for use with
such low conductivity fluids in an environment
that includes flammable liquids or a potentially
explosive atmosphere.
Where flammable or reactive fluids are being
processed through a Pall capsule assembly, the
user should ensure that spillages during filling,
venting, depressurizing, draining and capsule
change operations are minimized, contained or
directed to a safe area. In particular, the user
should ensure that flammable fluids are not
exposed to surfaces at a temperature that may
ignite the fluid, and that reactive fluids cannot
contact incompatible materials that may lead to
reactions generating heat, flame or that are
otherwise undesirable.
Pall capsule assemblies do not generate heat,
but during the processing of high temperature
fluids, including steam sterilization operations and
process upset conditions, it will take on the
temperature of the fluid being processed. The user
should ensure that this temperature is acceptable
for the area in which the filter is to be operated, or
that suitable protective measures are employed.
When processing flammable fluids, the user should
ensure that any air is fully purged from within the
assembly during filling and subsequent operation to
prevent the formation of a potentially flammable or
explosive vapour/air mixture inside the equipment.
This can be achieve through careful venting of the
assembly or system as detailed in the user
instructions.
To prevent damage or degradation which may
result in leakage of fluids from this equipment, it is
imperative that the end user check the suitability of
all materials of construction (including seals on the
connections where appropriate) with the process
fluid and conditions. The user should ensure that
the assembly is regularly inspected for damage and
leaks, which should be promptly corrected, and
that seals (where appropriate) are renewed after
every capsule change.
Leakage of flammable or reactive fluids from this
assembly, arising through incorrect installation or
damage to the equipment (including any seals),
may generate a source of ignition if flammable
fluids are exposed to a heated surface, or if
reactive fluids contact incompatible materials that
may lead to reactions generating heat, flame or that
are otherwise undesirable. The user should ensure
that the assembly is regularly inspected for damage
and leaks, which should be promptly corrected,
and that any seals are renewed after every filter
change.
The user should ensure that these products are
protected from foreseeable mechanical damage
that might cause such leakage, including impact
and abrasion.
Regular cleaning with an anti-static material is
required to avoid the build up of dust on the filter
assembly.
Should you have any queries – then please contact
your local Pall office or distributor.
