Once it has been removed from the pallet and the packaging, the unit must be transferred by pulling it over
suitable surfaces. Use methods that prevent uncontrolled falling, sliding or tipping over. The liing lugs on the
pump unit are designed so the unit can be lied vertically. They may not be subjected to any lateral force.
The goods may also be warehoused in their packaging. Once it has been removed from its packaging, the
equipment must be put in position, observing standard safety procedures. Do not stack the equipment.
Use only permitted liing gear and safe tools and wear the required personal protective equipment.
4.8 Operations room
Definition: room which meets the applicable European regulations, European and harmonised standards
and relevant technical rules and guidelines of the professional associations for this field of application. For
the use of the expansion automat as prescribed in this manual these rooms generally contain equipment for
thermal generation and distribution, water heating/cooling and top-up, power source and distribution, such as
measuring, control engineering, control technology and IT.
Access for unqualified and untrained persons must be restricted or forbidden.
The set-up location of the expansion automat must ensure that operation, service, maintenance, inspection,
repair, installation and dismantling can be carried out unhindered and without danger. The floor of the set-up
location for the expansion automat must be such that stability is guaranteed and maintained. Bear in mind that
the maximum possible forces can be exerted from the net mass including the water volume. If stability cannot be
guaranteed, there is a danger that the vessel will tip over or move and, as a consequence in addition to functional
defects may lead to personal injury.
The ambient atmosphere must be free from conductive gases, high concentrations of dust and aggressive
vapours. There is the risk of explosion if any combustible gases are present.
In case of function-driven opening of the drain valve on the backflow preventer (optional top-up) or triggering of
the relief valve to prevent overloading of the vessel, as well as for potential overflow at the connection in a case
of vessel diaphragm damage to compensate for atmospheric pressure, the top-up or process water is drained.
Depending on the process, the water temperature can rise to 70 °C and, in the case of improper operation exceed
70 °C. This presents a danger of personal injury through burns and/or scalding.
It is important to ensure that this water can be drained safely, and - to prevent water damage - that there is a
safe drain or water collector in the immediate vicinity of the appropriate equipment (groundwater protection:
observe additives!).
Flooded equipment must not be operated. If electrical equipment short circuits, persons or other beings in the
water will be electrocuted. Furthermore, there is a danger of malfunction and partial or irreparable damage to
individual components due to water saturation and corrosion.
