Safety
2.7 How to respond in an emergency
2.7.1 Shutting down and de-pressurising the machine
In an emergency, bring the machine to an immediate standstill and relieve the
pressure.
1.
Close the compressed air shut-off valve.
2.
Actuate the one-hand lever on the mixing unit again briefly so that no
material pressure is present and the machine is completely free of
pressure.
This process is not suitable for decommissioning. The machine is not
flushed. The material inside the machine can harden and clog the machine.
➤
For controlled decommissioning, please see chap. 5.9 on page 30.
➤
After remedying the emergency situation, the machine must be flushed
Observe the pot life of the materials used.
2.7.2 Leakage
WARNING
In case of leakage, material may escape under very high pressure and
cause serious physical injuries and property damage.
➤
Bring the machine to an immediate standstill and relieve the pressure.
➤
Tighten threaded connections and replace defective parts (must be
performed by trained personnel).
➤
Do not seal leakage at connections and on high pressure hoses with the
hand or by wrapping.
➤
Do not patch material hoses!
➤
Check hoses and threaded connections for leak-tightness when starting
the machine up again.
2.7.3 Injuries
If case of injuries caused by processing material or solvents, always have
the manufacturer's safety data sheet ready to show the doctor (supplier or
manufacturer address, their telephone number, material designation and
material number).
