1.2 Safety precautions during installation
1. Install the equipment where the ambient air is cool and as clean as possible. Consult section
Reference conditions and limitations.
2. During installation or any other intervention on the equipment or one of the connected
machines, the machines must be stopped, de-energized and the isolating switch opened
and locked before any maintenance or repair. As a further safeguard, persons switching on
remotely controlled machines shall take adequate precautions to ensure that there is no one
checking or working on the machine. To this end, a suitable notice shall be affixed to the
start equipment.
3. Install the equipment in an area free of flammable fumes, vapours and particles, e.g. paint
solvents, that can lead to internal fire or explosion.
4. The electrical connections must correspond to the applicable codes. The equipment must be
earthed and protected against short circuits by fuses in all phases. A lockable power
isolating switch must be installed near the equipment.
5. For machines controlled by a central control system, a sign stating "This machine may start
without warning" must be affixed near the instrument panel.
6. In multiple compressor systems, manual valves must be installed to isolate each
compressor. Non-return valves (check valves) must not be relied upon for isolating pressure
systems.
7. Never remove or tamper with the safety devices.
8. If the maximum pressure of the compressor is higher than the design pressure of the
connected equipment (e.g. a nitrogen generator or an oxygen generator), a full flow safety
valve must be installed between the compressor and the connected equipment, in order to
be able to blow off the excessive pressure.
Also consult following safety precautions: Safety precautions during operation and
Safety precautions during maintenance or repair .
These precautions apply to electrical devices.
For precautions applying to the connected equipment consult the relevant instruction
book.
Some precautions are general and cover several machine types and equipment; hence
some statements may not apply to your device.
