Safety information and protective measures
Protection devices
Behavior during purge air failure
The purge air supply serves to protect optical subassemblies fitted on the duct against hot
or aggressive gases. Leave the supply switched on when the equipment is at a standstill.
Optical subassemblies can be severely damaged in a short time if the purge air supply
fails.
NOTICE:
Suitable protection devices and safety equipment for persons must be
available according to the respective hazard potential and be used by the
personnel.
NOTICE:
The user must ensure that:
The purge air supply runs reliably and continuously
Failure of the purge air supply is immediately detected (e.g. by using
pressure monitors)
Optical subassemblies are removed from the duct if the purge air supply
fails and the duct opening is closed off (e.g. with a flange cover).
