2 Safety instructions
2.1 Danger Due to Unloading and/or Transportation
Severe personal injury due to falling:
· Secure the AFS device against tipping and falling.
· Avoid standing under floating loads.
· Secure the assembly area.
2.2 Danger from Doors and Inspection Doors
Low pressure prevails when AFS devices are in operation.
Danger of hand crushing due to pressure from doors and inspection doors on the low-pressure side:
· Open doors only after the ventilator has stopped.
If AFS air purification devices are operated in conjunction with multiple devices, then all of the
devices must be turned off before a door or maintenance door is opened.
2.3 Danger Due to Electrical Power
Danger of electric shock – potentially fatal – from contact with live components:
· Always ensure that there is no electrical power before working.
Danger of electric shock – potentially fatal. Some electric circuits such as the electronics in the
ventilator may be charged for a few minutes after the electrical supply has been interrupted:
· After turning off the electricity, wait at least three minutes before beginning to work
on or near electrical components.
Danger of electric shock due to static charge in the housing:
· Ground the device (see Chapter 5.5).
Danger of electric shock due to short circuit upon contact between electrical components:
· All cables must be examined for assembly damage or
insulation damage before operation.
Danger of electric shock due to wet cleaning the device:
· Always clean without electrical currents.
2.4 Danger Due to Ventilators
After electrical tension has been interrupted, the ventilator can be started up again automatically.
Fatal or severe injury from ventilator rotor:
· Keep persons and objects away from the ventilator rotor.
· For all work on the AFS device, switch off power to the system and wait for the ventilator to
stop running.
