Ecolab DS1-RMT, Directions For Use Manual

Important instructions for operators/users/installers

Introduction:

This nozzle is developed according to up-to-date technology and meets the current national and international safety 

requirements. The nozzle has a high degree of operating safety as a result of our company’s long development 

experience and constant quality control.

By normal operation, the nozzle is safe.

Nonetheless, some potential sources of danger to people, material and optimal operation remain, especially when daily 

routine and technical faults coincide.

This operating manual therefore contains basic safety instructions, which must be observed when configuring, operating, 

fitting and removing the nozzle. They must be read by the operator/user/installer before commissioning, fitting or removing 

of the nozzle and must be available to the above-mentioned persons at all times.

General safety requirements:

The following rules must always be observed:

• 

 The nozzles must only be used as intended. Changes to the operating conditions must be clarified with the manufac-

turer.

•   Usage as intended includes observation of the various instructions in this safety technical data sheet and in the 

   operating and installation manual as well as observation of all trade association instructions.

•   The operating personnel must be made familiar with the function and handling of the nozzle.

• 

 Installation, configuration, commissioning, fitting or removal must only be carried out by qualified personnel.

• 

 The nozzle must only be operated by qualified/authorised users.

•   Adaptations and changes of the nozzle must only be carried out by authorised personnel in consultation with the 

manufacturer. All liability lapses in case of adaptations or changes carried out by other persons or adaptations or 

changes not agreed with the manufacturer.

Before any commissioning, the following must be carried out/observed:

•   Function test

•   Check that all nozzle connections are placed securely and tightly

•   Working safety 

The nozzles are exposed to the following kinds of wear:

•   chemical

•   thermal

•   mechanical

The nozzles must therefore regularly be tested and replaced as necessary. The nozzles must only be operated in 

technically faultless condition. 

•   Never point the liquid jet/spray at people or electrical equipment. There is a risk of injury by the addition of chemicals,  

   high temperatures or pressures, solids or electrical current. WARNING: With media such as gas, air or steam, the jet  

   is barely visible.

•   There is a danger of inhalation of the jet. Especially by atomisation of chemicals or other materials representing a  

   danger to health, remedial action must be taken with appropriate measures 

   (e.g. suction, suitable breathing protection). 

• 

 The work area must be spacious and marked with appropriate warning symbols.

•   During the spraying, the nozzle assumes the temperature of the medium/media being sprayed. 

• 

 There is a danger of burning or freezing – remedial action must be taken with suitable protective clothing.

•   If materials representing a danger to health are sprayed, suitable protective clothing must be worn when fitting or  

   removing the nozzle. 

The nozzle must only be adjusted, fitted or removed with appropriate tools. WARNING: When adjusting, fitting or removing 

the nozzle, all hoses must be unpressurised and empty.

 Connections must be cleaned before fitting.

Any warranty lapses if the nozzle is used incorrectly or with the wrong materials.
