The compressor is only classed as being used for
its intended purpose if the following points are also
observed:
The compressor is used according to these op-
erating instructions.
The working steps and standard operating pro-
cedures of the operator are followed.
Any other use or use beyond this is defined as
non-intended use. The manufacturer is not liable
for any resulting damage. The user alone bears
the risk.
Intended use also includes observation of the op-
erating instructions and adherence to the inspec-
tion and maintenance instructions.
Other conditions
Danger to life and limb of the user or third parties
can arise from use of the compressor; likewise
damage to the compressor or other material can
arise if the compressor:
Is not used as intended.
Is not operated by trained personnel.
Is changed or modified.
The safety instructions are not observed.
Alongside these operating instructions, the follow-
ing apply:
Relevant accident prevention regulation
Generally recognised safety rules
Country-specific conditions
Installation location / installation altitude
The compressor is intended for installation in a
suitable compressor room. The compressor is not
suitable for open-air installation!
The permissible installation altitude of the com-
pressor is limited dependent on the operating
pressure, ambient humidity and ambient tempera-
ture at which it is operated. The permissible instal-
lation altitude is specified for each individual case
by consultation between the customer and Gard-
ner Denver.
Working environment
The illumination in the region of the compressor
must be ≥ 200 lx during normal operation.
The illumination for inspection and repair work
must be ≥ 500 lx.
Ambient temperature for operation: see "Technical
data".
Pressure equipment
For pressure equipment/systems a pressure re-
lief device (safety valve or similar) dimensioned to
match the weakest pressure carrying component
and conforming to the relevant regulations must
be installed in the compressed air network.
1.4
Intentional misuse
Incorrect use and misuse
The following typical reasonably foreseeable mis-
uses (incorrect uses) are classed as contrary to
the intended use:
Compression of gases other than atmospheric
air.
Operation outside the permissible operating
limits, even if the exceeding of the limits is only
temporary or not immediately identifiable.
Operation outside the permissible ambient tem-
peratures.
Extraction of non-atmospheric air (overpres-
sure or vacuum pressure).
Use as a breathing air compressor.
Manipulation of sensor signals.
Signal modification of sensors.
Operation without protection and safety equip-
ment.
Operation with defective, deactivated or ma-
nipulated protection and safety equipment or
safety valves, or operation with other such
safety relevant defects.
Use by private users or users without technical
training.
Operation outside industrial environments.
Non-adherence to maintenance intervals.
Omission of maintenance and repair work.
Incorrect execution of maintenance and repair
work.
Limitations on use
Operation of the compressor is not permitted
outside the permissible ambient temperatures.
above the permitted altitude of the installation
location.
on an insufficiently load-bearing substrate.
in areas with an explosive atmosphere.
