PH-2 SERVICE MANUAL
2. SAFETY AND HANDLING
WARNING! The design and configuration of the PH Series
Proportioner does not allow its use in potentially explosive atmo-
spheres or the pressure and temperature limits described in the
technical specifications of this manual to be exceeded.
Always use liquids and solvents that are compatible with the unit. If in doubt,
consult your authorized PMC distributor.
When working with the PH Series Proportioner, it is recommended that the operator
wear suitable clothing and elements of personal protection, including, without limitation,
gloves, protective goggles, safety footwear and face masks. Use breathing equipment when
working with the PH Series Proportioner in enclosed spaces or in areas with insufficient
ventilation. The introduction and follow-up of safety measures must not be limited to those
described in this manual. Before starting up the PH Series Proportioner, a comprehensive
analysis must be made of the risks derived from the products to be dispensed, the type of
application, and the working environment.
To prevent possible injury caused by incorrect handling of the
raw materials and solvents used in the process, carefully read the
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provided by your supplier.
Deal with the waste caused according to current regulations.
To avoid damage caused by the impact of pressurized fluids, do
not open any connection or perform maintenance work on com-
ponents subject to pressure until the pressure has been completely
eliminated.
Use suitable protection when operating, maintaining or being
present in the area where the equipment is functioning. This in-
cludes, but is not limited to, the use of protective goggles, gloves,
shoes and safety clothing and breathing equipment.
The equipment includes components that reach high temperatures
and can cause burns. Hot parts of the equipment must not be
handled or touched until they have cooled completely.
To prevent serious injury through crushing or amputation, do
not work with the equipment without the safety guards installed
on the moving parts. Make sure that all the safety guards are
correctly reinstalled at the end of the repair or maintenance work
of the equipment.
