1.1 General safety
Warning!
Vacuum force
Warning!
Exhaust
Warning!
Unrestricted exhaust
The correct use of pneumatic equipment
within a system is the responsibility of the
system designer or the person who
determines its technical specifications.
The use of safety guards is recommended to
minimize the risk of injury to persons; pay
close attention to the fact that compressed
air may lead to explosion of closed
containers, and vacuum may lead to the
implosion of closed containers.
In the event that, contrary to indications,
dusts, oil mists, fumes, etc. are suctioned,
these will be mixed with the discharge air of
the vacuum generator and expelled via the
discharge conduit; use suitable, approved
air filters to avoid possible intoxications.
Ensure that the components are properly
secured; regularly check that connections
are in good working order, as high cycles or
vibrations may cause them to loosen.
1.2 Safe usage
The product described in this manual is
designed for implementation in industrial
systems; therefore, it must not be used with
