In order to keep the tank cleaning machine servicing as an efficient tool in the tank cleaning operations, it is essential to
maintain its high performance by following a simple preventive maintenance programme, which will help keep the tank cleaning
machine in good condition
Good maintenance is careful and regular attention!
6.1
Service and repair of ATEX/IECEx certified machines
All service and repair of ATEX/IECEx certified machines can be performed by Alfa Laval Kolding A/S, Denmark,
or by an Alfa Laval service center approved by Alfa Laval Kolding A/S.
Changes to the machine are not allowed without approval by the person responsible for the ATEX/IECEx
certification at Alfa Laval. If changes are made – or spare parts other than Alfa Laval original spare parts are used
- the EC Type Examination certification (the ATEX/IECEx Directive) is no longer valid.
In order to ensure compliance with the ATEX/IECEx regulations and keep the machine ATEX/IECEx certification
valid, the service or repair must be performed by an authorized person with knowledge of the ATEX/IECEx
requirements and regulations. All spare parts must be original Alfa Laval spare parts and the repair or service
must be done according to the instructions in this manual.
Warning:
If a customer wishes to carry out service or repair himself, it is the responsibility of the repair shop to ensure that
the ATEX/IECEx requirements are met in any way possible. After performing service or repair, the repair shop
thus carries the full responsibility for traceability of all relevant documents in order to ensuring the retention of the
ATEX/IECEx certification of the machine.
6.2
Service and repair of machines ordered with Alfa Laval Q-doc
In order to ensure full traceability and to obtain full test documentation (FAT: Factory Acceptance Test), it is necessary to order
a new Rotary Spray Head machine with Alfa Laval Q-doc. The new Rotary Spray Head machine will be manufactured and
tested (FAT) and shipped to the customer with new Alfa Laval Q-doc for further qualification (SAT: Site Acceptance Test) and
validation (PV: Process Validation).
