General Considerations
System Electrical Cabling
- Electrical power must be off
when connecting or disconnecting electrical cables.
Do Not Wear Loose Clothing or Jewelry
- They can
become caught in moving parts.
Stay Alert
- Watch what you are doing at all times. Use
common sense. Do not operate the press when you are tired
or distracted from the job at hand.
Do Not Operate the Equipment
- Your judgement or
reflexes could be impaired while taking prescription medica
-
tions. If so, do not operate the equipment. Be familiar with
warning labels and recommended activity restrictions that
accompany your prescription medications. If you have any
doubt, do not operate the equipment.
Plastics Health Notice
Certain plastic materials, when being processed, may emit
fumes and/or gases that may be hazardous to the operator’s
health. Proper ventilation of the work station should be pro-
vided where such materials are processed. Inquiries should
be made to the U.S. Department of Labor concerning OSHA
regulations for a particular plastic prior to processing with
Dukane ultrasonic equipment
.
Electrical Safety
The
iQ Series
generator
provides the operating power
and power returns. Make sure the generator is grounded
properly.
In addition to the safety considerations, proper grounding
is essential for the effective suppression of RFI (Radio
Frequency Interference). Every generator contains a RFI
filter which blocks noise on the AC power line from enter
-
ing the generator control circuitry. This filter also prevents
ultrasonic RFI from being fed back into the AC power line.
Always connect the included ground wire from the PE
ground of the generator to the nearest grounded metal pipe
or equivalent earth ground by means of a ground clamp.
CAUTION
When making cable connec-
tions to system equipment or
disconnecting cables from
system equipment, make
sure electrical power to the
system is turned off, and AC
power cords are removed
from their receptacles. After
the cables have been se-
curely connected and the
connections and cable rout-
ing checked a final time,
the power may be restored.
WARNING
Keep head, hands, limbs
and body at least six inch-
es (152 mm) away from an
operating press/thruster. A
vibrating, descending horn
can cause burns and/or
crushing injuries.
See TUV test report num-
ber 31370614.003 for more
detail on specific model
numbers and frequencies.
