The technical data and performance may be modified
without prior notice depending on the technical advances.
1.2.7 Personal protective equipment
If operating problems or malfunctions can occur at the hydrant
(e.g. risk caused by substances acting on the hydrant), the person
at risk – if necessary or specified by rules – must use suitable
personal protective equipment to avert hazards which may arise
due to the valve being pressured with up to 16 bar.
1.2.8 Presentation and explanation of the
danger symbols on the hydrant
The corresponding pictograms and explanations are included in
the relevant operating instructions specific to the product and/or
in the corresponding danger analysis.
1.2.9 Safety measures during normal
operation
When using the hydrant, observe the approved technical rules:
- European standards, and regulation in force. For areas which
must be supervised, observe the relevant laws and regulations,
e.g. trading regulations, regulations for prevention of accidents,
steam boiler regulations, regulations for gas mains under
high pressure, regulations for combustible liquids as well as
technical regulation works instructions, etc,
- Law on emissions, technical instructions for protection against
noise, disposal of working media according to Directive of the
Council 75/439/EEC,
- Regulations specific to the country concerning approval for
discharging substances hazardous to water into the collective
sewage water system,
- Water resources laws that are specific to the country,
- Rules for accident prevention that are specific to the country,
- Safety regulations for hydraulic hose pipes.
- European Construction Products Directive 89/106/CEE.

1.2.10 Dangers caused by electric energy
A potential danger may arise when the hydrant is installed close
to the electricity supply.
DANGER
Work at electric installations should
only be carried out by trained
electricians and only when the
current is switched off.
Danger from high electric voltage!
1.2.11 Particularly dangerous places
If the hydrant has been installed according to the instructions,
there will be no immediate danger.
However, vibration may cause damage to seals and screwed
connections. As a result, the flow medium may escape!
Depending where the hydrant has been installed, there may be a
risk of explosion caused by electric contact.
1.2.12 Safety instructions concerning
maintenance, repair, trouble shooting
WARNING
Before carrying out work on the
hydrant, the inspection valve must
be closed and the pipe section must
be depressurised.
1.2.13 Modification of hydrant design
Prior to any change to the design by the user, the manufacturer's
approval must be obtained. Otherwise, the warranty becomes
void.
1.2.14 Hydrant cleaning and waste disposal
for environmental protection (flow media and
lubricating agents)
The hydrant can be cleaned with water and soap at a max.
temperature of 40°C.
When using high-pressure cleaning devices, maintain a
minimum distance of 30 cm between the nozzle and the surface
to be cleaned at 100 bars.
For disposal of flow media and lubricating agents, see operating
instructions specific to the product.
1.2.15 Noise level at the hydrant
Unacceptable noise at the hydrant only occurs if the given
operating conditions are out of control (cavitation or water
hammer)
