TANKO® RF_IOM_Rev0

Mini retractor system TANKO-RF

WARNING

Danger resulting from negative pressure/vacuum in the container! A cold cleaning process in hot, closed containers can generate negative pressure, which may result in damage to the container. There is a risk of death or severe physical injury. • Take precautions to allow gases or vapors to escape during operation (e.g. install devices for ventilation).

As a result of the variety of practical applications and uses for the cleaning device, AWH CANNOT specify a noise level for the device under load, i.e. installed in the container and operating with cleaning fluid. For this reason, AWH can only offer the owner, as a precautionary measure, a few points of reference and notes to be observed and to be integrated into the owner's hazard and risk assessments.

CAUTION

Risk of hearing damage due to increased noise level! The device emits a noise pressure level of L pA < 70 dB(A).

When the device is operated in a container, the noise level may exceed the maximum permitted exposure value of L EX,8h = 85 dB(A) and varies depending on the properties of the container in the plant and the existing operating conditions of the device. Hearing damage could be the result. • The plant noise level must always be measured and documented by the owner. • Keep the plant noise level within the legal range: – Take noise reduction measures (e.g. sound insulation). – Delimit and mark the noise area (e.g. with mandatory sign "Wear hearing protection"). – Use effective hearing protection (e.g. ear muffs or ear plugs). Comply with the technical health and safety rules relating to noise and vibration protection (called TRLV Lärm in Germany). State-of-the-art technology must be used to implement the measures to provide protection from exposure to noise based on the hazard assessment. In this case, noise emissions must be prevented at their source, or reduced as far as possible. CAUTION Insufficient lighting in the work environment! The device is NOT equipped with any lighting. Insufficient lighting when working on the device can cause accidents. There is a risk of minor or moderate injuries. • Make sure that there is sufficient and even lighting in all areas of the plant in which the device is used when work is performed on the device. • In Germany, the technical rules for workplaces apply - ASR A3.4. A luminance intensity of 300 lx (lux) is recommended (maintenance value).
