Steps To Follow In Case Of Fire - ECOFOREST ecoSMART e-system Manual Usuario

The detailed instructions in this section cover important aspects for your safety; as such
they must be strictly complied with.
▪
All the installation and maintenance work must be performed by an authorised technician following
local regulations and according to the instructions described in the installation manual.
▪
Improper installation or use of the equipment could cause electrocution, short circuits, fire or other
personal injury and/or material damage.
▪
Keep the plastic bags included in the packaging out of the reach of children, as they could result in
injury through asphyxia.
▪
This equipment should not be handled by people with physical, sensory or psychological disabilities,
children and people with no suitable experience or knowledge, unless it is under the supervision or
direction of a person responsible for their safety.
▪
If equipment malfunction is detected, contact your technical service to solve any problems that may
have appeared.
▪
Do not touch any of the internal components during or immediately after operation. You must
DANGER!
completely disconnect the equipment and isolate it from all the electrical circuits before carrying
out any handling or maintenance work.
▪
Install a RCD (residual current device) on each electrical line in alternated current in output from
the storage system.
▪
The RCD or RCDs must be of quadripolar type, with maximum residual current equal to 300 mA,
class A.
▪
Take every precaution to avoid that the storage system turns on in an unauthorized way.
▪
In case it is mandatory that you perform any operation under tension, it is strictly forbidden to
execute without the proper PPE: electrocution gloves and safety shoes.
▪
Do not install or handle the e-system near flammable materials or in potentially flammable
atmospheres.

1.2. Steps to follow in case of fire

The electrical devices can originate a fire in the last term due to defects in the installation
or an inadequate use of the equipment. The measures to be taken must be aimed at
ensuring the safety of the people in the first place, as well as avoiding further material
damage. In case a fire starts inside the e-system or nearby to it, follow these instructions:
-Switch off and isolate the e-system from the grid switching-off the magnetothermal
from the general electric board downstream of your energy meter.
-The extinction of the fire must be carried out through conventional agents, as it is a
system considered low voltage, with output voltages lower than 600Vac.
-Only dry powder fire extinguishers can be used in case of fire in batteries. Liquid fire
extinguishers are prohibited.
