2 Safety Instructions
Disintegration hazards
• When power cables are connected, always
check direction of motor rotation. If incorrect,
vital rotating parts could unscrew.
• If excessive vibration occurs, stop separator and
keep bowl filled with liquid during rundown.
• Use the separator only for the purpose and
parameter range specified by Alfa Laval.
• Check that the gear/pulley ratio is correct for
power frequency used. If incorrect, subsequent
overspeed may result in a serious break down.
• Welding or heating of parts that rotate can
seriously affect material strength.
• Inspect regularly for corrosion and erosion
damage. Inspect frequently if process or
cleaning liquid is corrosive or erosive.
Entrapment hazards
• Make sure that rotating parts have come to a
complete standstill before accessing par
ts
inside the machine or starting any disman
tling
work.
• To avoid accidental start, switch off and lock
power supply before starting any dismantling
work. Assemble the machine completely
before start. All covers, connections and guards
must be in place.
