with aggressive media. As a result, serious injury or
significant property damage may occur if this device is
operated incorrectly.
WARNING
Only qualified and authorized personnel are to be tasked
with the installation, electrical connection, commissioning
and maintenance of the KM26 series MLG. Qualified
personnel are those individuals who have experience in
the installation, electrical connection, commissioning and
operation of the KM26 series MLG or similar devices /
systems and hold the necessary qualifications. These
qualifications include but are not limited to:
• training or instruction – authorization to operate and
maintain devices or systems according to safety
engineering standards for electrical circuits, high
pressures and aggressive media
• training or instruction in accordance with safety
engineering standards regarding maintenance and
use of adequate safety systems.
For reasons of safety, ABB recommends that only
sufficiently insulated tools, conforming to IEC EN 60900,
be used. Since the MLG may form a link within a safety
chain, it is recommended that the device be replaced
immediately if defects are detected. In the event of use in
a hazardous area, only non-sparking tools are to be used.
CAUTION
In addition, the user must observe all relevant safety
regulations regarding the installation and operation of
