3.4 Particular dangers associated with machines

Danger
Risk of electric shock.
Insufficient power quality could have
a strong effect on health & safety and
may constitute a risk to life and limb
of the user or third persons.
Remote-controlled units may start up
unexpectedly.
Noise, even when it is not very loud,
can make us nervous and irritated,
and after a longer period of time our
nervous system can suffer serious
damage.

Safety measure required
Electrical connections must meet the local regulations. Power units must be
connected to earth and protected from short-circuits by means of fuses.
Always check a correct power supply to the compressor before commissioning.
The voltage supply has to fulfill the requirements of EN60204-1/IEC60204-1 for
such kind of industrial equipment.
If a remote control is used, the system must carry a clearly visible sign with the
following note: Attention! This installation is operated by remote control and can
start up without prior warning!
As an additional safety measure, persons, who start remotely controlled systems,
have to take sufficient safety precautions in order to ensure that nobody is
checking the system or working on it. For this, a label with a corresponding
warning notice has to be attached to the remote control equipment.
We recommend a separate machine room in order to keep the noise of the
machine away from the workshop.
Where necessary, wear the personal hearing protection.
In order to consider all noise-relevant parameters and to adequately protect the
health of the operator, the European Regulation 2003/10/EC must be satisfied
completely by the user. In states outside the European Community, the
respective noise protection directives must be taken into consideration.
Shielding and doors must be closed during operation so that the efficiency of the
sound insulating is not reduced.
