For further instructions for the licensing process and the testing of filling stations
before commissioning, refer to the information sheet (can be obtained from
BAUER KOMPRESSOREN).
The test certificates and documents supplied with the compressor are important
and must be included in the application documents as part of the licensing proc-
ess. The documents that relate to recurrent tests also have an important role to
play and must, therefore, be stored carefully.
In accordance with the German Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health (Betr-
SichV), compressor units used as filling stations must be subjected to an accept-
ance test by the relevant monitoring authority (TÜV in the Federal Republic of Ger-
many) prior to commissioning.
If the compressor is going to be used for filling pressurised gas containers (cylin-
ders) which are intended for others, the unit must be licensed by the relevant au-
thority before the acceptance test (Trade Supervisory Board in the Federal Repub-
lic of Germany).
Tests governed by accident prevention regulations are carried out by the manufac-
turer or a specialist.
