DANGER
Danger of ignition in potentially explosive atmosphere due to potential differences!
When filling and emptying containers with fluids, when recirculating, stirring, mixing and
spraying fluids and also when measuring, sampling and cleaning, the fluids themselves or
the interior of the container could be charged in a dangerous manner.
Differences in potential (e.g. electrostatic charge) can cause igniting sparks or heat,
which can act as an ignition source.
There is a risk of death or severe physical injury.
Only clean electrically conductive containers.
Make sure that any electrostatic charge is prevented. Also make sure that all electrically
conductive parts on the device and the container are grounded for potential equalization
to the same potential using grounding cables with a sufficient diameter.
Grounding must always be carried out before start-up of the device.
Avoid grounding faults (e.g. subsequent grounding of already charged objects or
equipment).
Do not secure or seal mechanical connections with electrically insulating materials
(such as sealing tape, sealant, adhesive, etc.), if it impairs the grounding of the device
on the container.
WARNING
Risk of chemical burns and heat burns when opening the container!
The supply line is pressurized. The person could be hit by cleaning jets or come into
contact with residual fluid from the supply line and device. There may also be hot vapors
in the container.
There is a risk of death or severe physical injury.
Do NOT open the container during the cleaning process.
Before starting work, observe the work steps of the switch-off procedure (see
Section
Before opening the container, observe the cooling and draining time.
Wear personal protective equipment (e.g. protective gloves, safety shoes, safety goggles).
