Safety Instructions - Pressure Tech Swiss PT-1000 Operation Manual

• Make sure electrical power is disconnected before servicing the high pressure pump or
electrical cabinet.
• Do not move high pressure pump while it is powered on.
• For maintenance purposes, only use parts provided or recommended by PressureTech and
New England Tool Corporation.
• In case of emergency press the E-STOP (Emergency Stop) button on the CNC machine and
disconnect power by shutting OFF the main circuit breaker (CBI) on the high pressure pump.
• Allow only qualified personnel to handle and service your high pressure pump system.
• Make sure the high pressure pump is not making any erratic (unusual) noise during operation,
and inspect for any signs of leakage around pump area.
• lnspect hydraulic hoses for tightness and leaks. Make sure that the filter vessel cover is latched
and secure.
• Take extra precaution if you run the high pressure pump and machine unattended. A fire hazard
may exist during operation of the machine and pump. This is especially true if you are in the
process of machining materials such as Magnesium, Titanium, etc.
• We recommend installing a fire suppression system inside the machine, especially if the
machine is running unattended.
• Your high pressure pump system is not provided with a coolant flow switch. The system relies
on the machines coolant level alarm to ensure pump is not running dry without coolant oil or
fluid.
• Always ensure that there is enough oil in the machine, oil reservoir and high pressure pump
filter vessel. Refill the oil tank as necessary.
• Prevent oil or water from coming into contact with electrical equipment.
• Under no circumstances should you ever come into contact with high pressure coolant streams.
• Never install shut-off valves between the pump and discharge pressure regulator, or in the
regulator bypass line.
