SAFEX tries hard to approach its goal to produce the best and safest flame-effect-device. For inspira- tion and improvement-suggestions we are always grateful.

Page 7: Operation Using The Dmx Control System
Instruction manual SAFEX- 7/35 LAME ETTT Textversion 3.52 The apparatus itself has different settings permitting easy pre-programming of attractive fire ef- fect sequences using the keys and the display. The effect programme that has been set is then easily started or stopped using a remote control and the length and type of flame, as well as the interludes, are fully automatic. -
Page 8: Setting/Programming The Apparatus
Instruction manual SAFEX- 8/35 LAME ETTT Textversion 3.52 Finally the display shows the chosen remote control sockets: In case of a connected remote control which is different to the selected remote control system an error message occurs instead: The apparatus then checks the internal pressure, (even with an empty or no aerosol cartridge the sys- tem can still have pressure!). -
Page 9: Setting The Display Language
The device is factory set for the use with DMX remote control; that is for the use of the standard- compliant 5-pole sockets on the left side at the operating side. ® User witch want to operate the SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT with low voltage- (LV) remote control e. g. with ®... -

Instruction manual SAFEX- 13/35 LAME ETTT Textversion 3.52 Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Several turns are required to screw the cartridge in and while it should be hand-tightened, it must be screwed in to the point where there is substantial resistance. As a rule, no fuel/gas mixture es- capes during this procedure. -

It will be available in the second half of 2008, prospectively.) The apparatus can then use this information to gauge the approximate level or consumption of the fuel mixture and this is indicated continuously on the display. -

Page 21: Operation In Conjunction With Ground Fog
SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT -Cartridges 4S13.xx represents an inappropriate and highly negligent behav- iour. Simple gas cartridges not only result in useless effects, but also represent a hazard, as the SAFEX- ® FLAMEJETTT cartridge release valves are constructed in a technically different manner. The SAFEX- ®... -
Page 22: Safety Check List
® 1. The apparatus is used with the permitted fuel supply, the SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT -CARTRIDGE (aerosol cartridge). (Gas cartridges produced by other manufacturers are unsuitable and represent inappropriate and hazardous use). -
Page 23: Cleaning The Ignition Chamber And The Igniting Electrodes
If the ducts inside is severely corroded and not sufficient reflective, there must be af- fixed a reflective metallic foil which can be requested free of costs from SAFEX. (Alternatively can be ordered the sensor protective housing with the duct made from stainless steel as a spare part, completely in- and outside metallic blank). -

Make the apparatus operational (power connection and remote control) and select the manual safety test on the apparatus using the programming mode (press ESC and O.K. keys for 3 sec.). At a safe distance, start the manual safety test by arming the apparatus within 2 minutes and then 7 seconds later through a continuous firing impulse of 3 seconds in duration, ensuring that no unau- thorized persons enter into the danger area around the apparatus. -

Page 27: Failure Indications
Instruction manual SAFEX- 27/35 LAME ETTT Textversion 3.52 An error report can be deleted after maintenance or repair or after net interruption by pressing the O.K. key each time after the following queries. If the error report is annulled with an actually present malfunction, however without the problem being remedied, of course the error report will be shown again, if the device notices the error again after re- newed putting into operation. - Page 28 Instruction manual SAFEX- 28/35 LAME ETTT Textversion 3.52 Temporary shutdown if the apparatus falls over or is no longer firmly placed on a base. The ap- paratus is fitted with a switching facility that immediately switches it off if it threatens to fall over or is not properly fixed to a base.

-Logo)*. ® In a certain scope slanted flames can be produced as an original effect with the SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT in that the device is inclined side-ways. This is made possible now due to the improved igniting elec- trodes. The possibility of the slanting position is, however, limited by physical qualities of aerosol-cans also of the flames itself. -

Mounting on Trusses or Operation in an elevated Position. ® The SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT can basically also be operated in an elevated position so long as the safety distance above it is adhered to. A mounting plate with suitable tube clamps is required for mounting of the apparatus on a truss. The apparatus can be screwed onto the panel using the attachment plates. -

CHANGING NOZZLES ® The SAFEX-FLAMEJETTT is fitted with a replaceable nozzle. Nozzle no. 3 (manufacturer's standard) is best suited to standard operation with the SAFEX-FLAME- ® ® JETTT -Cartridge type 4S13.xx. However, SAFEX can supply changeable nozzles with a smaller di- ameter (number 1) if flame height is to be reduced or restricted. -
