Safety conditions / Intended use 

2.1.

 

General safty conditions 

 

•

 

For safety reasons, under no circumstances may the machine be commissioned if there is 
visible damage.  
In this event, please contact Palas® (Tel.: 0721/96 213-0). 

•

 

The dilution system has been set by the manufacturer to be used with a maximum pre-
pressure of P

max

 8 bar for the compressed air supply. Please make sure that the 

maximum pre-pressure of Pmax 8 bar specified on the type plate agrees with the 
provided compressed air line where the machine is to be used. 

•

 

Only use original spare parts! Please contact the manufacturer whenever necessary. 

•

 

Please only use dry, particle- and oil-free compressed air supply. 
 

2.2.

 

Intended use 

 

•

 

The dilution system of the series VKL was designed to dilute a high concentrated aerosol 
by the ejector principle with dry, oil- and particle free compressed air.

 

•

 

The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage, which arease due to incorrect 
operation, cleaning, error in operation or the measurement of aerosols which gas 
conditions or compound the instrument is not specified for.

 

•

 

The machine may only be operated in dry rooms, under atmospheric ambient pressure 
and at room temperature.  
Operating under other ambient conditions such as in corrosive or explosive 
environments, in strong electric or electromagnetic fields, in areas with ionising radiation 
as well as in areas subject to impact and vibration is not covered by any functional 
guarantee by the manufacturer

 

 

2.3.

 

Responsibility of the operator 

 

•

 

The device was designed and built in consideration of the standards to be adhered to. It 
therefore represents state-of-the-art technology and allows a high degree of safety in 
operation. 

•

 

Please only operate the dilution systems of the VKL series after reading carefully the 
manual. 

•

 

Shall be operated by trained personal only. 

•

 

Be sure that the machine shall not be used by unauthorised personnel. 

•

 

Caution: Depending on the type, aerosols can pose a health hazard. They should 
therefore not be inhaled. When working with or when around hazardous materials, care 
must also be taken to wear appropriate protective clothing (respirator mask). Please 
follow all applicable guidelines and accident prevention regulations.
