5.2 Installation

The safety notes in section 5.1 Safety Instructions for Installation must be adhered to before installation of the device in the container.

CAUTION

Risk of a fault as a result of soiling, foreign objects or damage to the device! There is a risk of minor or moderate injuries. The following measures must be observed before installing the device for the first time, and also when installing it after retooling work on the plant in which the device is installed.  All supply and return lines for the cleaning agent must be flushed with clear water in order to remove any contamination, foreign objects or residue in the supply line (e.g. scale, chippings, welding particles etc.).  Take suitable measures to prevent soiling and foreign objects from entering via the interfaces of the device. Install a filter upstream of the media connection [MA] in the supply line for the cleaning agent (see section 3.4 Cleaning Agents).  Only fixed pipe installation is permitted. Do not install with a hose. Installation with a hose can cause the installed cleaning device to thump/whip.  When selecting the installation position of the device, make sure that a safe distance from the inner wall of the container and from surrounding components is maintained, so as to prevent scraping or knocking during vibration.  It is imperative to prevent collisions while the cleaning head and surrounding components (e.g. agitators) are moving simultaneously.  Longer line lengths can cause vibration in certain operating statuses. In case of heavy vibrations on the plant, the pipe connection to the device may come loose.  In case of vibrations, take additional measures to prevent the connection from coming loose, such as spot welding or gluing (e.g. Loctite).

 Install the device free of mechanical strain.

 Paint must not be applied to the surface of the device.

 The installation dimensions are to be taken from the dimensional drawings in the AWH catalog. Make sure sufficient space is available for operation and maintenance.

The installation position of the cleaner can be freely selected.

Observe the prescribed installation method (welded, screwed or with locking pin (clip-on)).

The operating company is solely responsible for fastening the device to the container. The vessel connector must be securely sealed. The use of Teflon tape or other similar material is NOT permitted.
