1.5 Prescribed use
The BL3 series Drive Roller must be installed and used only in industrial environments for non
continuous service within environmental conditions and min. and max. temperatures indicated in the catalog (use
in internal environment, at temperature comprised between -10/+35 °C, without condensate).
The RDR BL3 product is designed to convey only material contained in boxes and/or cases, or which can in some
way be conveyed on rollers.
It is located on roller conveyors or conveyors for very light belts (in this case the approval of Rulmeca is required).
Any other use falls outside its prescribed scope unless duly discussed and approved in writing by Rulmeca and
such use is deemed to be non-conformant and voids the product warranty.
Using the RDR BL3 product still requires the equipment housing it to comply with current health and safety
regulations.
It is forbidden to make modifications to the delivered product unless they have been previously agreed with
Rulmeca.

➢

approved by Rulmeca after analysing actual operating conditions.
