Safety
4.1 Intended use
The inline liquid filter is designed for installation into pressurised pipe lines working at up to 6 bar. All
pipeline connections are to be installed accurately and sealed to prevent the loss of pressure/product.
The lid seal is to be maintained in a good condition.
To ensure that the supplied magnets maintain their high level of performance, attention must be paid
to the following conditions:
1. NO temperatures above the specific operating temperature
2. NO oscillating vibrations
3. NO impacts
4. NO strong external flux fields
5. Pay attention to the cleaning and maintenance of the system
4.2 General preventive measures
The rod is constructed with strong magnets. The handling of ferrous tools (e.g. with maintenance or
cleaning) etc. can cause risk of injury for the personnel due to the magnetic attraction.
Special measures regarding the presence of ferrous items have to be considered when handling
magnetic material.
4.3 Dangers during neglect of the safety notes
Using this equipment in a manner not intended can present safety hazards.
4.4 Safety notes for operation and maintenance
Maintenance work is to be executed only by qualified personnel.
With work on pneumatic, hydraulic, pressurised or electrical services the supply lines are
to be isolated prior to any cleaning or maintenance actions.
Prior to any maintenance work being carried out, the process, equipment used and personnel must be
risk assessed and deemed suitable to conduct that task. All work is to be carried out in accordance
with local and legislative regulations
.
WARNING! This system incorporates strong permanent magnetic materials. Please pay attention to
the safety notes in order to avoid personal injury or material-damage:
Operators fitted with heart pace-
maker’s shall not come within 1m of the equipment.
Oppositional poles of magnets attract each other with high clamping forces.
Do not use steel/iron tools or other ferrous parts in the flux field of the system.
Data carriers, credit cards, computer drives etc can be erased by the influence of the magnetic
field. Keep electronic and sensitive mechanical units (i. e. watches) away from the magnet.
Please contact our service department before welding or drilling works on the unit.
