7.1 Maintenance Schedule
The maintenance intervals depend very much on the individual operating conditions.
The intervals given below are considered as starting values which should be
shortened or extended as appropriate. Particularly harsh applications or heavy duty
operation, such as high dust loads in the environment or in the process gas, other
contamination or ingress of process material, can make it necessary to shorten the
maintenance intervals significantly.
