2.3 Residual risks
In order to avoid the possible dangers in operating or maintaining the unit, necessary protections have been
foreseen. However, there are still some residual risks that all personnel working with the unit must be aware
of:
The handling of fluids in refrigerating, heating or cooling circuits can be dangerous. Study the information
relevant for each type of fluid to avoid dangers.
Hot or cold surfaces can cause injuries. Before intervening, wait until temperatures become normal or use
protective clothing.
When working inside the unit, pay attention to the possible ergonomic dangers from inadequate work
positions or heavy lifts.
Unit sections can be high. Use secure scaffolding to access the upper level.
Unit panels can be heavy. Do not handle alone.
Sharp steel edges on boxes or coils can cause cuts. Use protective gloves, particularly during disassembly
or assembly.
When working with or near fans, be aware that remaining air flow through the unit can cause spontaneous
rotation of the fans and thereby causing personal injury.
Doors for overpressure compartments can be equipped with additional safety locks against accidental
opening. Ensure that such locks are closed before starting the unit.
The fire and/or smoke detection is not a safety function in relation to the EN ISO 13849-1.
When working with filters or in a dusty area: To protect the user from dust, wear a suitable CE marked face
mask selected and fitted in accordance with the applicable safety standards.
Use hearing protection according to applicable safety standards when working in a noisy environment to
avoid hearing impairment.
Dampers open and close automatically. Keep hands clear of the dampers when they are moving.
