SAFETY CHECKLIST
1.
Before operating the compressor, ensure the vessel to
which the compressor is connected is certified to with-
stand the pressure and /or vacuum produced.
2.
Verify adequately sized relief valves (if necessary, CE
approved) have been fitted to protect the vessel.
3.
Gas/air mixtures which are potentially volatile/explosive
must not be introduced or allowed to be introduced into
the compressor.
4.
All pressure vessel and piping connected to the compres-
sor must be isolated and in a safe operating condition.
5.
Operators should wear ear protection when operating
truck mounted compressors.
6.
There are components within the compressor of sufficient
weight to cause injury if mishandled. Use proper lifting
devices as necessary.
7.
Where necessary, this equipment should be grounded to
control static electricity.
8.
The temperature of the air leaving the compressor is ele-
vated above ambient due to air compression. Check that
the elevated temperatures do not adversely affect the
product and any material used in design of the system.
Attach clearly marked warning signs to warn of potential-
ly hot surfaces on the compressor, piping and accessories
which will burn if touched.
9.
Mounting of the compressor must be correctly engineered
and the compressor must be properly secured. Refer to
the Compressor Mounting section of this manual. In par-
ticular, the installation shall be done in such a way that no
rotary part may be touched by the operator in normal
operation.
