Danger of injury due to hazardous flow media!
If hazardous media (explosion-hazardous, flammable, caustic, toxic, high
pressure, very hot or very cold) flow through the K°Bloc, you may get seri-
ously injured.
Check the safety accessories fitted on the K°Bloc, see chapter „5.5.1

question!
Wear your personal protective equipment during all work!
WARNING
Hazard due to deactivated safety equipment!
When deactivating safety equipment for installation, maintenance or
commissioning work, you or other persons may be seriously injured and you
have to ensure that this produces no hazard to persons and material assets.
Make sure at all times that no persons can be injured due to safety
equipment that has been put out of operation!
Always inform all persons involved when you put safety equipment out of
operation!
When using environmentally hazardous media, ensure that these can be
reliably collected in case of a K°Bloc leak and cannot pollute the environ-
ment!
Observe the locally applicable instruction manual of the plant where the
K°Bloc is integrated.
