Maintenance
In the event of a fault, or if there is any doubt that the machine/system is not
completely ready for operation, it must be shut down immediately and inspected by
competent maintenance staff before operation continues.
5.1
Maintenance intervals
In order to ensure problem-free operation, we recommend complying with the following
maintenance intervals.
1 = Operating staff
2 = Maintenance staff
The recommended change cycles are based on empirical values for dosing applications.
The empirical values are based on different material properties, pressure conditions and
dosing settings. Depending on the material used, the required change cycles may differ
from the recommended cycles.
Ambient conditions, such as temperature and humidity, may affect the change cycles.
WARNING
Maintenance and cleaning work may only be carried out when the machine has been shut
down safely and secured against unauthorised restarting. Otherwise, serious injuries may
result.
