Risks during installation
DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock
Touching exposed and voltage-bearing elements causes an electric shock. Improper connection of
the mains supply leads to the risk of touchable live housing parts. There is a risk to life.
► Before the installation, check that the connection leads are voltage-free.
► Make sure that electrical installations are only carried out by qualified electricians.
► Provide adequate grounding for the device.
► After connection work, carry out an earthed conductor check.
DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock
When establishing the voltages that exceed the specified safety extra-low voltage (according to IEC
60449 and VDE 0100), the insulating measures will be destroyed. There is a danger to life from elec-
tric shock at the communication interfaces.
► Connect only suitable devices to the bus system.
WARNING
Risk of danger to life through missing mains disconnection device
The vacuum pump and electronic drive unit are
not
equipped with a mains disconnection device
(mains switch).
► Install a suitable motor protection switch.
WARNING
Risk of fatal injury due to electric shock on account of incorrect installation
The device's power supply uses life-threatening voltages. Unsafe or improper installation can lead to
life-threatening situations from electric shocks obtained from working with or on the unit.
► Ensure safe integration into an emergency off safety circuit.
► Do not carry out your own conversions or modifications on the unit.
WARNING
Risk of crushing from rotating parts
Fingers and hands may be caught by rotating pistons within the connection flange. This results in se-
vere injuries.
► Keep limbs out of the reach of the roots pump.
CAUTION
Danger of injury from bursting as a result of high pressure in the exhaust line
Faulty or inadequate exhaust pipes lead to dangerous situations, e.g. increased exhaust pressure.
There is a danger of bursting. Injuries caused by flying fragments, the escaping of high pressure, and
damage to the unit cannot be excluded.
► Route the exhaust line without shut-off units.
► Observe the permissible pressures and pressure differentials for the product.
► Check the function of the exhaust line on a regular basis.
