2.3 Safety devices
In the process of designing and building the fan, the manufacturer adopted the necessary technical solutions to ensure
compliance with fundamental safety requirements: the object of the risk reduction process was to ensure that the operator
can use the fan in safety. The machine is provided with protection devices of fixed type and is fitted with an actuator for
the emergency stop function.
Fixed guards
The fixed guards are solidly fixed to the structure of the machine and cannot easily be eluded: the guards are fixed with
systems which require the use of tools for dismantling.
WARNING
Do not start the fan with fixed guards removed: the guards can only be removed with special tools,
by specialized and trained personnel and with the system stationary (emergency system activated and electricity
and hydraulic fluid isolated). At the end of maintenance operations, the guards which were removed must be
replaced correctly.
