6.3 Switch-on Procedure In accordance with the type of device activation and how it is integrated (e.g. manual or automatic) on the cleaning plant, the switch-on procedure must be integrated and the following instructions must be observed when switching on. WARNING Risk from sudden, unforeseeable or unauthorized activation of the device (e.g. triggering of a start command as a result of incorrect operation of a start-up control device) ! There is a risk of death or severe physical injury. During start-up of the device, it is essential to perform the following work steps in the specified order. Switch-on procedure 1. Firmly close all of the openings on the container (e.g. inspection openings). 2. Empty and depressurize the container. 3. Switch on the compressed air supply for possible dry blowing of the device. • Check that the compressed air supply is NOT interrupted and that the air pressure is applied to the switching valve, if compressed air is used. • Take suitable measures to secure the compressed air supply to prevent it from switching off suddenly, unexpectedly or without authorization. 4. Switch on the cleaning medium supply (e.g. slowly open the shut-off valve or ball cock). • Check that the supply of cleaning medium is NOT interrupted and the media pressure is established at the device. • Take suitable measures to secure the supply of cleaning medium to prevent it from being switched off suddenly, unexpectedly or without authorization.

NOTE

Risk of breakage due to material overload! Pressure surges when switching the cleaning medium on or off, in particular pressure surges which exceed the operating pressure, and gas components in the cleaning medium may cause hammering in the cleaning device. There is a risk of material damage or destruction of plant parts, e.g. leakage in the pipe system or on connected devices. • Prevent pressure surges (“water hammers”) and gas components in the cleaning medium, e.g. caused by: – installing a water hammer arrester or pressure relief valve in the supply line, – slowly starting/stopping the pump and – opening/closing the shut-off fitting slowly (e.g. valve or ball cock).
