applications.
Information
The compressors 2MME-07 .. 6PME-40K and
2NSL-05K .. 4NSL.F4K are exclusively intended
for use in subcritical applications with CO
2
as
the refrigerant.
Specific application ranges see chapter Applica-
tion ranges, page 22.
These refrigeration compressors are intended for incor-
poration into refrigeration systems in accordance with
the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. They may
only be put into operation if they have been installed in
the machines according to these Mounting/Operating
Instructions and if the overall system complies with the
applicable legal provisions (applied standards: see de-
claration of incorporation).
The compressors have been built in accordance with
state-of-the-art methods and current regulations. Partic-
ular importance has been placed on user safety.
These Operating Instructions and the enclosed Operat-
ing Instructions KB-104 must be kept available next to
the refrigeration system during the whole service life of
the compressor.

Safety
2.1
Authorized staff
All work on CO
2
compressors and CO
2
refrigeration
systems requires a specific training and expertise in
handling CO
2
as a refrigerant and shall only be per-
formed by qualified staff who have been trained and in-
structed accordingly. The qualification and expert
knowledge of the personnel must correspond to the
local regulations and guidelines.
2.2
Residual risks
The compressor may present unavoidable residual
risks. That is why any person working on this device
must carefully read these Operating Instructions!
The following regulations shall apply:
• relevant safety regulations and standards (e.g.
EN378, EN60204 and EN60335),
• generally accepted safety rules,
• EU directives,
• national regulations.
2.3
Safety references
