3.1 Residual risk during transport and storage

WARNING! Risk of Cut!
Sharp edges or any not protected threaded parts 
entail the risk of getting cut.
Take necessary cautions to avoid injuries and 
use protective equipment (wear specific 
gloves).

WARNING! Risk of personal injury!

 

Do not stand or put members under the sus-
pended parts during handling and installation. 
Use clothing dedicated to protection against 
accidents (wear helmet and safety shoes).

 

WARNING! Risk of impact!
Be careful of prominent parts and parts at head 
level. Use clothing dedicated to protection 
against accidents.

DANGER! Risk of fall!
Prohibit access to wells or tanks, where pumps 
are installed. Wells must have closing cover.

WARNING! Risk of irritation!
During handling, avoid spillage of battery acid 
solution which could cause irritations or mate-
rial damages. Use special protections to avoid 
contact.

CAUTION! Risk of environmental pollution!
Avoid dumping of oil from the engine or diesel 
fuel from the tank. During handling, keep them 
flat. Use suitable protection and implement the 
necessary measures to prevent pollution of soil, 
water, etc.

4 Intended use

The fire extinguishing boosters are designed for a 
professional use. They are used when an increase 
or a maintaining under pressure of the fire net-
work is necessary. 

The system must be installed in a special room 
which is protected from frost and rain, fireproof 
and ventilated enough, with necessary spaces 
around pumps for movements and regular main-
tenance .The room must be in accordance with the 
EN 12845 standards. Airflow for ventilation and 
for cooling of engines, more specifically diesel 
engine -if present- has to be sufficient.
