The I/H converter is a hydraulic unit. Any improper use may lead to the leakage of
operating medium under pressure, posing a risk to the health and life of the operating
staff. Prior to performing any work on the I/H converter, switch off the hydraulic auxiliary
energy.
During operation, the outer surfaces of the I/H converter and the hydraulic connecting
lines may become hot due to the operating medium. Any contact may cause injuries by
burning. Prior to performing any work on the I/H converter, let the I/H converter cool
down.
On commissioning or operation of the I/H converter, the end of the piston rod directly or
indirectly driven by the I/H converter may move uncontrolled in case of failure of the
hydraulic or electric energy, due to malfunctions in the master control or on the I/H
converter. This movement may pose a risk to both individuals and property. Prior to
performing any work on the I/H converter, switch off the hydraulic and electric auxiliary
energy.
Electric components are integrated in the I/H converter which may be destroyed, e.g.
during electric welding near the I/H converter. Prior to performing electric welding near
the I/H converter, remove all electric connecting lines.
Environmental protection
On assembly, disassembly or improper use of the I/H converter, operating medium may
leak out. Operating oil getting into the sewage system or open soil causes severe
environmental damages. Collect leaking operating medium and dispose of it in
accordance with the national statutory provisions.
Painting
In case of repaints or mendings of the paint on a device, please ensure that the
maximal permissible total film thickness will not be exceeded. For devices of Gas
Groups IIA and IIB, it is 2 mm and for devices of Gas Group IIC it is 0.2 mm.
Instruction Manual
The instruction manual contains important information regarding proper handling of the
I/H converter. Prior to installation and commissioning of the I/H converter, carefully read
the entire instruction manual and make sure you fully understood its content.
Keep the instruction manual in a place constantly accessible to the operating staff.
In addition to this instruction manual, have the rules governing accident prevention and
environmental protection available and observe the same.
Please keep for later reference.
Staff qualification
Only trained and instructed personnel are allowed to work on the I/H converter. These
personnel must be sufficiently trained, instructed and authorized to properly mount,
operate and maintain the I/H converter in accordance with the safety standards.
Installation, commissioning and operation have to be performed by a certified electrician
with experience and knowledge in the field of explosion protection.
Constructional modification
Mounting work and structural modifications are not permitted.
The screw fitting of the cable entry on the control magnet (VRM) is secured against
distortion. Do not distort or slacken the screw fitting.
