5 Preparing the Gas Analysis System for Use
WARNING
This is a complex measuring and control system. Incorrectly performed installation, electrical
installation, initial operation, or maintenance can lead to hazards and possibly even to death due
to electric shock or risk of explosion. The respective work on the gas analysis system may therefore
only be performed by trained professional personnel. The specialist personnel must have read and
understood the Instruction Manual and follow its instructions.
5.1
Transport and Storage
This gas analysis system must be protected against impermissible loads or damages by, for
example, humidity, vibration or shock. In the event of mechanical defects with electrical or electronic
components, the gas analysis system must not be put into operation. The same environmental
conditions as those for the operation apply to a possible storage of the gas analysis system before
installation and commissioning.
5.2
Installation
The installation must be performed only by qualified personnel. They must be well familiar
with the contents of this manual and any other provided manuals and repair instructions as well
as with the safety instructions and specifications on the devices. In addition, the applicable
national, local and system-specific regulations and provisions must be considered. An over-
voltage protector must also be provided for by the operator.
The dimensioning of the gas analysis system can be found
the device casing have to be leak-proofed and closing elements have to be screwed in tightly. The
device must not be installed in unvented shafts or poorly ventilated rooms. There must be enough
space around the device so that the door of the casing can be opened and the device can be operated
and controlled easily. For devices with a cooler, there has to be enough space for the circulation of air
around the heat sink (at least 30cm).
CAUTION
In the event of a malfunction, the device can be brought into a safe state by de-energizing it. The
device therefore has to be installed in such a way that the main switch operation is not impeded.
