1 Safety instructions

Risk of explosion (deflagration)!

Risk of flame exposure when opening the combustion chamber door!

In the event of faulty pre-ventilation or incomplete combustion, an explosive atmo-

sphere can occur in the combustion chamber due to the formation of carbon monoxide

(CO). This can ignite when the burner is repeatedly started, when the combustion cham-

ber or maintenance doors are opened and cause deflagration. This can result in death,

serious injury or damage to equipment.

Before lighting the fuel, close all maintenance doors. Lighting may only be performed

manually through the combustion chamber door.

Never open the combustion chamber door after lighting the fuel or during the automatic

lighting procedure.

It is prohibited to open the combustion chamber door during start-up and operation as

well as after shutdown for faster cooling.

The combustion chamber door and the maintenance doors may only be reopened after

pre-ventilation, especially after a power failure.

It is prohibited to bridge safety switches.

Obstruction of the respiratory tracts by dust!

Dust, ash and fly ash from the multi-cyclone or electrostatic precipitator can negatively

affect breathing.

In the event of high dust concentrations (especially from the ash from the multi-cyclone

or electrostatic precipitator), respiratory protection of class P3 or FFP3 must be worn.

Caution! Respirator masks for fine dust do not provide protection against hazardous or

suffocating gases and vapours.

Danger from heat and hot surfaces!

The combustion chamber, combustion chamber and maintenance doors, fuel supply

and flue gas pipes can be hot.

Do not touch during operation. Wear gloves and protective gear.
