Safety
Series 505G2 SilentFlo Hydraulic Power Unit 23
learn and identify hazards so that you can establish appropriate training and operating procedures and
acquire appropriate safety equipment (such as gloves, goggles, and hearing protection).
Each test system operates within a unique environment which includes the following known variables:
l Facility variables (facility variables include the structure, atmosphere, and utilities)
l Unauthorized customer modifications to the equipment
l Operator experience and specialization
l Test specimens
Because of these variables (and the possibility of others), your system can operate under unforeseen
circumstances that can result in an operating environment with unknown hazards.
Improper installation, operation, or maintenance of your system can result in hazardous conditions that
can cause death, personal injury, or damage to the equipment or to the specimen. Common sense and
a thorough knowledge of the system’s operating capabilities can help to determine an appropriate and
safe approach to its operation.
Read all manuals
Study the contents of this manual and the other manuals provided with your system before attempting
to perform any system function for the first time. Procedures that seem relatively simple or intuitively
obvious may require a complete understanding of system operation to avoid unsafe or dangerous
situations.
Locate and read hazard placards/labels
Find, read, and follow the hazard placard instructions located on the equipment. These placards are
placed strategically on the equipment to call attention to areas such as known crush points, electrical
voltage, and high pressure hazards.
Specimen temperature changes
During environmental testing, the specimen temperature can become hot enough to cause burns.
Wear personal protection equipment (gloves) when handling specimens.
Know facility safe procedures
Most facilities have internal procedures and rules regarding safe practices within the facility. Be aware
of these safe practices and incorporate them into your daily operation of the system.
Know controls
Before you operate the system for the first time, make a trial run through the operating procedures with
the power off. Locate all hardware and software controls and know what their functions are and what
adjustments they require. If any control function or operating adjustment is not clear, review the
applicable information until you understand it thoroughly.
