Preparations for use
Good planning and preparation of machine applications are essential in terms of keeping
installation simple and avoiding errors, ensuring safe operation, and allowing access to the
machine for servicing and corrective maintenance.
This chapter outlines what you need to consider when configuring your plant in relation to this
machine and the preparations you need to make before the machine is delivered.
4.1
Safety-related aspects to consider when configuring the plant
A number of residual risks are associated with the machine. These are described in the chapter
titled "Safety information" (Page 15) and in related sections.
Take appropriate safety precautions (covers, barriers, markings, etc.) to ensure the machine
is operated safely within your plant.
4.2
Observing the operating mode
Observe the machine's operating mode. Use a suitable control system to prevent overspeeds,
thus protecting the machine from damage.
4.3
Ensuring cooling
Ensure that the machine and/or any mounted external fan unit is sufficiently cooled by the
cooling air flow at the installation site:
● The cooling air can flow in and out freely. The full air flow provided by the fan is only achieved
● Hot discharged air must not be drawn in again.
● On the vertical design with air intake from above, the air inlets must be protected against

Configuration of the cooling circuit and coolant supply
4.4.1
Material selection for the cooling circuit
For optimum durability of the cooling system, use a closed or half open cooling circuit in
stainless steel or acrylic butadiene styrene (ABS).
