Safety - NetterVibration NTP Series Operating Instructions Manual

4 Safety

NTP vibrators operate using compressed
air at a pressure of up to 6 bar. All
hoses must therefore be securely
connected. If a pressurized hose
becomes loose it can cause injury. The
compressed air must therefore be shut
off before performing installation work.

Vibrators and parts of the construction
may become loose, due to vibration.
Falling parts can cause material
damage or injury. Screw locks and/or
Loctite or equivalent must therefore be
used.
Screwed connections should be
checked after 1 hour of operation and
then at regular intervals (generally once
per month) and tightened, if necessary.
In critical installation situations, it is
necessary to secure the vibrator with a
steel safety rope.
Silencer:
Operation without a silencer should be avoided, so that the environment
is not subject to unnecessarily high noise levels.
Modifications:
Modifications to the device can alter the characteristics of the NTP or
destroy the device, and result in the rejection of all warranty claims.
Failure to comply with the operating instructions will also result in the
rejection of all warranty claims.
NTP B+C vibrators may only be operated in timed mode
(e.g. duty time 5 s, pause time 25 s).
NTP vibrators may also be operated in dusty or wet environments – even
under water, if the exhaust air is dissipated.
