3 General Safety Instructions

These safety instructions do not take any

• Incidents and occurrences into account which may occur during assembly, operation and

maintenance of the devices.

• Local safety regulations where the operating party is responsible for its compliance, also in

regard to the installation staff.

DANGER!

Danger from electrical voltage

Reaching into the system presents an acute risk of injury.

Always switch off the power before beginning with the work activities and secure it against being
switched back on inadvertently! Obey the applicable accident prevention and safety regulations for
electrical devices!

WARNING!

Inadvertent operation or impermissible restrictions may cause general danger situations
through the downstream actuators, including physical injuries.

Take proper precautions to prevent accidental actuation or inadmissible impeding.

Dangerous situations may develop during installation and repair activities. This type of work may only
be carried out by authorized technical personnel and with suitable tools!

After an interruption of the electric supply, ensure a defined and controlled restart of the processes!

WARNING!

Personal injuries and damage to the system may occur following a system interruption or after
manual operation through unwanted operation of output devices.

Before changing the mode of operation (Manual or Automatic), appropriate measures must be
taken to prevent harm to personnel and the system due to unwanted actuation of an output device
(e.g. biocide pump).

CAUTION!

The general engineering rules apply to the deployment planning and operation of the device!

Disregarding these rules may result in injuries and/or damages to the device and possibly its
environment.

Follow the general rules of engineering!

CAUTION!

Electrostatically endangered components/modules

The device contains electronic components which may react sensitively against electrostatic
discharges (ESD). Touching electrostatically charged persons or objects puts these components at
risk. In the worst case, they will be destroyed or fail after startup.

Follow the requirements according to DIN EN 61340-5 to minimize or prevent the possibility of
damage due to sudden electrostatic discharge!

Make also sure not to touch the electronic components if supply voltage is supplied!
