2.4 SAFETY INSPECTIONS
BEFORE INSTALLING AND/OR INTERFERING WITH THE HYDROMECHANIC COUPLING:
2.4.1
Verify that are fulfilled all the requirements for installation as provided for in section
1.10 REQUIREMENTS FOR STANDARD and/or ATEX INSTALLATION
2.4.2
Make sure that the ATEX marking complies with the zone classification for
installation in hazardous atmospheres.
2.4.3
Make sure that no alarm conditions have arisen and/or no signals have been
released as a consequence of the activation of a safety and overheating control
device.
2.4.4
Verify that the drive part and the moving components are stopped.
2.4.5
Make sure that power supply at the drive end is disconnected and the relevant
switch is blocked with an adequate safety padlock and report the event under
way.
2.4.6
Wait for cooling - max 40°C - before starting any operation.
2.4.7
Make sure that no oil overflow or leakage have occurred. If so:
- promptly remove and dry up the coupling, before handling it,
- detect the origin of the transmission oil leakage and make the necessary
arrangements before going on using the hydromechanic coupling.
2.4.8
Check up on integrity of the safety and overheating control devices and the
correct positioning of the electric detectors (microswitch for TE or a sensor for
T09); in case the device has triggered or has been damaged, replace it with an
original spare part calibrated for the same trigger temperature.
2.4.9
If necessary, verify the filling of the fluid coupling based on the operation and/
or any traces or transmission oil leakage (see section 7.2 OIL LEVEL CHECK
AND TOP-UP).
BEFORE RESTARTING THE HYDROMECHANIC COUPLING:
2.4.10
Make sure that in the installation room or on the coupling there are no tools,
foreign bodies or cloths and if so, remove them.
2.4.11
Close in safety position the guards in the room, where the hydromechanic
coupling is installed.
