Safe operation

Mechanical hazards during operation
During standard operation, no mechanical hazards are caused by the low-pressure and high-
pressure stage, provided that it has been properly installed.
Low-pressure and high-pressure stages are not designed for sudden pressure loss that may
occur due to the piping system between the compressor or the turbine stages bursting.
Safety during commissioning and operation
Visually inspect your working environment before starting work.
u
Remove any obstacles and objects littering the workplace.
u
Check all pipes to and from the Power2 for damage and leaks before commissioning.
u
Check Power2 for recognisable damage or defects every 12 hours of operation or at least
u
once a day.
Report any damage and any alterations of operational characteristics to the responsible
u
department immediately.
In case of damage, take the Power2 out of operation immediately and safeguard against
u
accidental/unauthorised use.
When switching on operating energy supplies (hydraulics, pneumatics, electricity), pay at-
u
tention to the risks that may occur as a consequence of this energy input.
