2.3 General safety information
WARNING!
Danger due to hazardous substances
By operating this system the operator generates
hazardous substances.
The operator is responsible for adapting the oper‐
ating instructions to their system in the event that
more recent knowledge about the dangers associ‐
ated with a hazardous substance and its avoid‐
ance become available or national regulations pre‐
scribe something else to that stated in the supplied
operating instructions.
WARNING!
Safely discharging the hydrogen / air mixture
Always properly discharge the hydrogen / air mix‐
ture produced in the electrolysis system into the
outside atmosphere through a closed, continuously
rising pipework system.
Check the continuity of the hydrogen discharge
line and the supply air to the system annually.
WARNING!
Danger from hazardous substances!
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious inju‐
ries.
The system operator is responsible for ensuring
that the material safety data sheets are available
and that they are kept up to date, as well as for
producing an associated hazard assessment for
the workplaces affected.
The sound pressure level is < 70 dB (A) at maximum power
(without the booster pump).
The system generates a small volume of a hydrogen-air mixture. It
is essential that this hydrogen-air mixture is safely discharged into
the outside ambient air. Ensure during installation that no air is
drawn in from other equipment close to the outlet, for instance by
an air conditioning system.
The operator must provide personal protective equipment in line
with the hazards and in compliance with national regulations.
