Residual Risks; Foreseen Use - FPZ MOR Series Instructions Manual

Danger due to rotating parts: cutting or shearing
The rotating impeller (where foreseen) can be accessed via the openings of the body and/or cover of the machine, once the manifolds,
silencer housings or blind flanges (where foreseen) are removed.
Never put hands or anything through these openings.
Danger due to rotating parts: cutting or shearing
The transmission coupling can be accessed once the covers are removed.
Never put hands or anything through these openings.
Danger due to electricity
Improper behaviour can cause serious accidents.
Work on the electrical equipment must only be carried out by qualified and authorised electricians.
Before starting work on the unit or system, take the following precautions:
- disconnect the mains power;
- take steps to prevent the power from being reconnected;
- open the terminal box only after making sure the power is disconnected.

RESIDUAL RISKS

When designing the machines or systems on which the blower is to be installed, the following residual risks must be considered.
Danger due to hot surfaces!
In operation, the unit may overheat, exposing the operator to contact with hot surfaces
Indicate the danger
-
Use protection devices to prevent contact
-
Danger due to noise from the unit!
Some machines can produce high noise levels, even exceeding 80 dB(A).
The reference values are given in the "SPECIFICATIONS" and do not consider environmental reverberation.
Protection measures:
Check the actual sound pressure of the machine in the place, and if necessary:
- Report the foreseen noise risk
- Arrange the use of PPE
- Insulate the place
Danger due to rotating parts: electric motor cooling fan.
Although designed to reduce any danger, the machine has residual risks linked to the rotation of the fan.
Protection measures:
- Do not wear loose fitting clothes
- Do not go near the machine with long and loose hair

10 FORESEEN USE

FPZ side channel blowers / exhausters are designed to generate vacuum and overpressure and for conveying non-explosive, non-
flammable, non-toxic and non-aggressive gases and air in continuous duty in a non-explosive environment.
FPZ side channel blowers / exhausters are designed and built for industrial use and are equipped with three-phase or single-phase
asynchronous bipolar electric motors in compliance with IEC 60034-1.
