atmospheric pressure must be protected by a pressure-relieving device or devices as
required.
14. Piping or other parts with a temperature in excess of 176°F (80°C) and which may be
accidentally touched by personnel in normal operation must be guarded or insulated.
Other high-temperature piping must be clearly marked.
15. For water-cooled machines, the cooling water system installed outside the machine has to
be protected by a safety device with set pressure according to the maximum cooling
water inlet pressure.
16. If the ground is not level or can be subject to variable inclination, consult the
manufacturer.
17. Make sure that all piping is installed stress-free.
If the maximum pressure of the compressor is higher than the design pressure of the dryer, a full
flow safety valve must be installed between the compressor and the dryer in order to blow-off the
excessive pressure in case the safety valve of the dryer should be out of order or blocked
Also consult following safety precautions: Safety precautions during
operation and Safety precautions during maintenance.
These precautions apply to machinery processing or consuming air
or inert gas. Processing of any other gas requires additional safety
precautions typical to the application which are not included herein.
Some precautions are general and cover several machine types
and equipment; hence some statements may not apply to your
machine.
1.4 Safety Precautions During Operation
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from neglecting these
precautions, or non-observance of the normal caution and care required
for installation, operation, maintenance and repair, even if not expressly
stated, will be disclaimed by the manufacturer.
Precautions during operation
1. Never touch any piping or components of the compressor during operation.
2. Use only the correct type and size of hose end fittings and connections. When blowing
through a hose or air line, ensure that the open end is held securely. A free end will whip
and may cause injury. Make sure that a hose is fully depressurized before disconnecting
it.
3. 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
