2.6 Hazards
The following section gives you an overview of the basic hazards that arise when
working with the product.
2.6.1 Notes on safety
To eliminate risks, observe the following instructions:
Danger of death due to explosions
Impermissible ambient conditions, materials or missing feeds and discharges
increase the danger of explosion!
In the following, observe all specifications marked with "Explosion protec-
u
tion".
High danger of injury or death
Non-compliance is very likely to result in serious injury or death.
In the following, observe all specifications marked with "accident preven-
u
tion".
Minor injury, material damage
Non-compliance can lead to minor injury or material damage.
In the following, observe all specifications marked with "injury prevention,
u
material protection".
Material damage
Non-compliance can lead to material damage and malfunctions.
In the following, observe all specifications marked with "material protec-
u
tion".
2.6.2 Danger of explosion when working in an explosive
atmosphere
If the system in which the product is to be installed is located in an explosive at-
mosphere, it may ignite during operation.
• Always observe the local installation regulations.
• Carry out tasks in non-explosive atmospheres only with a fire permit for these
tasks. Use only non-sparking tools if you still need to deal with the presence of
an explosive atmosphere.
2.6.3 Danger of explosion due to formation of sparks
Formation of sparks due to electrostatic charging
Electrostatic charging on the product can cause sparks to form and presents an
explosion hazard in explosion protection zones. Electrostatic charging is avoided
using the following measures:
• Grounding the product.
• Only clean the product with damp cloths. This avoids the formation of sparks
due to electrostatic charging (explosion protection).
Formation of sparks due to mechanical loads
Mechanical loads lead to the formation of sparks and present an explosion haz-
ard.
• Never twist or bend the product, or mount it when it is under tension.
• To avoid short circuits and interruptions, make sure that connection cables
and strands are not bent (material protection, explosion protection).
• Never expose the product to impacts during transportation, assembly, or op-
eration.
• Install the product so that it is protected from the energy of external impacts
to the housing that can occur during operation.
• Avoid vibrations, e.g. install the system on a cushioned base.
