2.1 System owner's responsibility
System owner
The system owner is a natural or legal person who for
commercial or business purposes owns or manages the
air handling unit or allows third parties to use or operate
it, but continues to bear legal responsibility for the safety
of users, staff or third parties while the product is in use.
System owner's obligations
The unit is intended for commercial use. The system
owner is therefore subject to the legal obligations of
occupational health and safety regulations.
In addition to the safety notes in this manual, the appli-

environmental protection must also be complied with.
In particular:
The system owner must establish on site a coherent
fire protection strategy and include the air handling
unit in this strategy.

dling unit in this strategy.
The system owner must name responsible persons
for transport, storage, assembly, installation, com-
missioning, transfer, disassembly and removal of the
unit.
The system owner must commission a skilled quali-
fied electrician to create equipotential bonding.
The system owner has to ensure that all individuals
who handle or use the air handling unit have read
and understood this manual.
The system owner must provide the employees with
the required personal protective equipment.
The system owner must have all safeguards tested
regularly to ensure that they are functional and com-
plete.
The system owner must ensure compliance with the
national legal provisions.
The system owner must have technical and hygiene
tests carried out and documented before commis-
sioning the air handling unit for the first time. The
