Danger in connection with the operational environment in combination with a conductor rail

Danger as a result of
environmental
influences!
These characteristics of the conductor rail can cause danger if the conductor rail is installed in an operational
environment with:
 Electrical power
Sparking

 Dust due to abrasion
 Material composition of the insulating profiles, which releases toxic vapors if burned
The most important measure to protect against these hazards is to only install the conductor rail system where the appropriate
operating conditions prevail. See section 3.5.

 Before starting work, clean the conductor rail in accordance with requirements.
There is a special maintenance instruction for this task, see section 11.
 During cleaning operations, protect the surrounding area, for example by covering
or removing stored materials and blocking off areas in which dust could fall down
on persons.
 Do not blow out dust with compressed air, but rather vacuum it away. The vacuum
cleaner must be equipped with a Class H fine filter.
 Do not eat, drink or smoke during the work!
gases (HCL).
 The building must be evacuated immediately.
 Notify the fire department.
Due to environmental conditions such as flammable dusts / gases, chemical
substances, radiation, temperature and contaminants can damage components
and cause breakage and falling off. Flammable dusts can cause fires by
sparking.
 Check influences depending on temperature, time of action, concentration and
interactions.
 Use in chemical works, galvanizing plants, electroplating plants, composting
plants or in warehouses or installations where chemical substances (e.g.,
aromatics, benzene) are stored or processed must be checked in advance
through Conductix-Wampfler.
 Secure conductor rails against falling down at a height of 3 m in areas with
persons moving about (safety gear).
 Install and operate the system according to the environmental conditions within
the permissible operating conditions.
