Safety instructions for
maintenance and repair
of the compressor
1. Ensure that maintenance work is only carried out by appropriately trained
persons.
2. Ensure that setting work, malfunction rectification and repair is only carried
out by specialists or appropriately trained persons.
3. Prior to maintenance or repair work:
–
Switch off the main switch.
–
Secure main switch against unintentional switch-on.
–
Check to ensure that all parts are currentless.
–
Disconnect the compressor from the compressed air network (relieve
or block pressurized lines).
4. Exercise extreme caution during repair or maintenance work requiring the
compressor to be operational.
Ensure that persons keep out of reach of the hazardous area.
5. Ensure that work on the electrical equipment is only executed by qualified
electricians.
6. Work on parts and devices under current is prohibited. Exceptions are
governed by the appropriate regulations.
7. The operator is responsible to check the compressor daily for externally
visible damage and defects, and to immediately report any changes
(including operational behaviour).
8. When the automatic restart (Auto-Restart) is activated, the compressor will
start automatically following a voltage loss.
Prerequisite: The net pressure is lower than the set switch-on pressure.
Accident prevention
regulations
The owner of a compressor plant is required to ensure that it is properly in-
stalled, operated and maintained.
For operation of the compressor plant, the accident prevention regulations of
the owner country must be observed in addition to the data contained in these
operating instructions.
Caution!
Only use original spare parts, compressor oils and operating materials re-
leased by BOGE during repair or maintenance!
Attention: High voltage!
When working on the electrical system there is a constant danger of getting
into contact with live parts!
To avoid such dangers the mains connection must be equipped with a dis-
connecting device!
