Indications for minimizing specific hazards
2.2.1
General indications
An improperly performed maintenance can pose a security risk!
Risk of thin sheets, when working on AHU
During work on AHU (or on parts), there is a substantial risk of cutting with thin
sheets as e.g. roof sheets, fins of heat exchangers, corners and edges - Use per-
sonal protective equipment: wear protective helmet, gloves, safety shoes and long
protective clothing.
Lighting
For work on AHU (maintenance and inspection work) make sure there is adequate lighting.
Firefighting in case of fire
In general, the local fire protection regulations must be observed.
-
If the AHU is part of the smoke extraction concept, then the specifications
of this concept have to be observed.
-
Otherwise, the power supply of the AHU must be interrupted immediately
at all conductors. In addition, the dampers must be closed to consequently
prevent oxygen supply and fire spread.
Exposure to harmful substances in case of fire
In case of fire, some materials can produce harmful substances. In addition,
harmful vapors can escape from the AHU. Therefore, severe respiratory protec-
tive equipment is required and the danger zone has to be avoided.
Exposure to rotating parts / hot surfaces / electrocution
When working on and/or in the AHU note the following risks:
Indentation of body parts in moving parts (belt drive, fan impeller, external damper
gear wheels ...).
Burns and scalds on hot AHU components such as heat registers, heat exchang-
ers, ...
Electrocution on current-carrying parts such as electric motors, frequency convert-
ers, electric heaters, control cabinets, interior lighting etc.
Therefore, it must be ensured that prior to working on and/or in the AHU, that
…
-
all current-carrying parts, such as cable plug connections, fan motors, valves, motors and elec-
tric heaters are disconnected from the power supply by using the main switch (emergency
stop) and that the switch is locked in position 'off' in order to effectively prevent a re-activation
