● Following the installation into a system, the operator is required to check and re-evalu-
ate the conformity of the overall system in the context of the relevant European Direc-
tives, before commissioning that system.
General safety precautions when handling the product
► Observe all applicable safety and accident prevention regulations.
► Check that all safety measures are observed at regular intervals.
► Do not expose body parts to the vacuum.
► Always ensure a secure connection to the earthed conductor (PE).
► Never disconnect plug connections during operation.
► Observe the above shutdown procedures.
► Keep lines and cables away from hot surfaces (> 70 °C).
► Never fill or operate the unit with cleaning agents or cleaning agent residues.
► Do not carry out your own conversions or modifications on the unit.
► Observe the unit protection class prior to installation or operation in other environments.
► Provide suitable touch protection, if the surface temperature exceeds 70 °C.
2.4 Safety precautions for vacuum pumps with magnetic coupling
The following safety instructions are only valid for the working with a drive system of a vacuum pump
with a magnetic coupling:
Safety precautions
► Keep a magnetic coupling away from people with pacemakers.
– Minimum distance:
2 m
► Avoid convergence of magnetic coupling components.
► Keep magnetized parts away from the magnetic coupling.
► Always keep a disassembled magnetic coupling away from computers, data carriers and other
electronic components.
– The magnetic coupling can influence operational reliability of electrical and electronic devices.
