Information and safety instructions for the responsible body
eNGLISH
2.7.2 Prick injury through pointed electrode
ATTeNTION!
Danger of being pricked by the electrode for the operator as well as for third parties while
taking hold of the orbital weld head.
X
Do not
take hold of the orbital weld head at the position of the electrode.
X
Before placing the orbital weld head in the transport case: Dismantle the electrode.
2.7.3 Danger of crushing through rotating rotor
ATTeNTION!
Danger of crushing!
Danger of crushing exists in the following situations:
• The rotor starts up unintentionally during setting up. Hands and fingers are crushed.
• The rotor is moved to the home position after setting up. Hair and clothing is pulled into the housing through the toothing.
X
Wear tight-fitting clothes.
X
Do not
wear open hair, jewelry or other accessories that can be drawn in easily.
X
Before connecting the orbital weld head and before mounting the electrode: Switch off the controller of the orbital welding
system.
2.7.4 Danger of crushing through being caught in by moving parts
ATTeNTION!
Hands and fingers can be caught in and crushed when setting up the tube-to-tube-sheet
orbital weld head or when inserting the arbor (in particular if the pneumatic system is
operated in an uncontrolled manner during the setup).
X
Before inserting the arbor: Place the tube-to-tube-sheet orbital weld head flat on the base.
X
Do not
pressurize the pneumatic connection until after the arbor has been inserted.
2.7.5 Burns and danger of fire through high temperatures
ATTeNTION!
The orbital weld head is hot after welding. Very high temperatures arise in particular after
several consecutive welding processes. There is a danger of burns or damage to the points
of contact when working on the orbital weld head (e.g. changing of the arbor or mounting/
dismantling of the electrode). Materials without thermal resistance (for example foam inlay
of the transport case) can be damaged when coming into contact with the hot orbital weld
head.
X
Wear safety gloves.
X
Wait until the surfaces have cooled down to below 50 °C before working on the orbital weld head or before packing into the
transport case.
