Safety Precautions During Installation - BeaconMedaes dMED 7 Instruction Book

Instruction book
• Immediately upon completion of work, remove any contaminated clothing and wash hands (and, if
necessary, contaminated tools) in a 2% glutaraldehyde solution and rinse under running water.
• A checklist / logbook will be made wherein the installer will mark the adherence of the installation to
the commissioning chapter of the instruction book.
• A validation of the quality of the air at the outlet should be carried out before the unit is put into
operation.
5. If any of the following statements does not comply with the applicable legislation, the stricter of the two
shall apply.
6. Installation, operation, maintenance and repair work must only be performed by authorized, trained,
specialized personnel.
7. A compressor is not considered capable of producing air of breathing quality. To obtain air of breathing
quality, the compressed air must be adequately purified according to the applicable legislation and
standards.
8. Before any maintenance, repair work, adjustment or any other non-routine checks, stop the equipment,
press the emergency stop button, switch off the voltage and depressurize the equipment. In addition, the
power isolating switch must be opened and locked.
9. Never play with compressed air. Do not apply the air to your skin or direct an air stream at people. Never
use the air to clean dirt from your clothes. When using the air to clean equipment, do so with extreme
caution and wear eye protection.
10. The owner is responsible for maintaining the dryer in safe operating condition. Parts and accessories shall
be replaced if unsuitable for safe operation.
11. It is not allowed to walk or stand on the equipment or its components. Protect the equipment against falling
objects.

Safety precautions during installation

1. The equipment must only be lifted using suitable equipment and in accordance with the applicable safety
regulations. Loose or pivoting parts must be securely fastened before lifting. It is strictly forbidden to
dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted load. Lifting acceleration and deceleration must be kept within
safe limits. Wear a safety helmet when working in the area of overhead or lifting equipment.
2. Install the equipment where the ambient air is as cool and clean as possible and within the limitations for
operation. It shall be protected from rain, snow or other precipitation and the distances to walls shall be
respected. Make sure that the environment is not potentially explosive.
Make sure that the ambient condition limits specified in the limits for operation are not exceeded during
the course of the plant lifetime and that they comply with the protection class of the unit.
Care must be taken to minimize the entry of moisture or any other impurities (e.g. internal combustion
engine exhaust, vehicle parking, access areas, hospital waste and disposal systems, vacuum system
exhausts, vents from medical gas pipeline systems, anaesthetic gas scavenging systems, ventilation system
discharges, chimney outlets and other sources of contamination) at the inlet of the compressor.
3. Any blanking flanges, plugs, caps or desiccant bags must be removed before connecting the pipes.
4. Air hoses must be of correct size and suitable for the working pressure. Never use frayed, damaged or
worn hoses. Distribution pipes and connections must be of the correct size and suitable for the working
pressure.
5. The air, aspirated by the compressor, must be free of flammable fumes, vapours and particles (e.g. paint
solvents) that can lead to internal fire or explosion.
6. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the unit. They should be used no closer to
any part of the unit, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the
equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter (See EN 60601).
7. No external force may be exerted on the inlet and outlet piping. The connections must be free of strain.
8. If remote control is installed, the machine must bear a clear sign stating "Danger: This machine is remotely
controlled and may start without warning".
