Obligation of the operator to exercise due care
The LMFI was designed and constructed taking into consideration a hazard analysis having
carefully adhering to the harmonised safety standards as well as further technical specifications.
Thus, the LMFI conforms to the state of the art technology and ensures a maximum of safety.
In practical operation, this safety can, however, be achieved only if all necessary measures are
taken. The obligation of the plant operator to exercise due care includes planning these measures
and supervising their execution.
Especially, the operator has to ensure that
• The LMFI will be used only in accordance with the intended purpose.
• The LMFI will be operated in a flawless, functionally efficient condition and that, in particular,
the functional efficiency of the safety devices will be checked at regular intervals.
• No modifications will be made to the component except by a Dynisco service person.
• The necessary personal protective equipment for the operation, maintenance, and service will
be available and used by any personnel performing these functions.
• The operating instructions are always available completely and fully legible at the installation
location of the LMFI. It must be guaranteed that all persons who work with the LMFI can
consult the operating instructions at any time.
• Only sufficiently qualified and authorized personnel will operate, maintain, and repair the LMFI.
• All safety and warning labels, attached to the LMFI, must not be removed and must remain
fully legible.
• Additional instructions, in accordance with facility, local, state and federal industrial safety
regulations and their corresponding, related ordinances for the use of work materials, will have
to be made available as a supplement to the operating instructions.
