Simultaneous operation of the system by two or more persons is not recommended as this may
cause hazards based on misconduct or mutual misunderstanding. In case of the system being
operated by two or more persons, operation should be conducted in such a way as to ensure
each individual’s respective task does not influence other tasks in any way.
Safety covers, panels, panes, windows or doors may not be removed at any time, unless there
is a need for service. The system may not be opened (i.e. antechambers, etc.) during
processing or power failures. In the case of any safety deficiencies, the system must be
decommissioned and the service personnel informed accordingly. During decommissioning
compliance with all local health, safety and environmental guidelines must be followed.
2.7 Safety – Electrical
This system operates under high voltage. Risk of injury caused by high voltages exists anytime
the system is connected to the power supply, this includes when the system is powered off.
Capacitors within the system may be charged when the system is switched off and
disconnected from main power supply.
Interchange of current bearing wires can result in electrical hazards
such as shock, involuntary muscle reaction, muscle paralysis, burnt
tissues and organs, or death.
Connection to the main power supply must be performed by a qualified electrician according to
local area guidelines. All neutral and ground wires must be connected accordingly.
Opening the system or removing parts when the system is powered on, may result in exposure
to live electrical connectors. Extreme caution should be taken to avoid directly or indirectly
touching live connectors to avoid possible electric shock.
Prior to performing any electrical service work on the system,
ensure the system is powered off and disconnected from the power
supply.
Service required while the system is in operation should only be performed only by qualified
personnel trained in the knowledge and prevention of all potentially dangerous and hazardous
situations.
The system must be grounded/earthed at all times. Do not remove or cut off any ground wire for
the system or its components. In case of insufficient grounding or damaged ground conductor
ensure the system will be inoperable and secure it against unauthorized or unintentional
operation.
Insufficient grounding can cause electrostatic charging of plastic
parts, hoses or pipes, wiring and/or the system as a whole, which
could cause solvents and process chemicals to ignite.
Replacement of fuses should be of the same type and current rating.
Makeshift fuses and/or short circuit fuse holders should never be
used in the operation of the system.
