Safety notes

1.1

Basic safety information

Due  to  its  functionally  limited  electrical  and
mechanical  characteristics  with  regard  to  usage,
operation  and  maintenance,  if  the  equipment  is
not  able  to  work  according  to  its  appropriate  use
or  improper  interference  occurs,  it  may  cause
serious health and material damage. It is therefore
conditional  that  the  planning  and  implementation
of  all  installations,  transportation,  operation  and
maintenance will be carried out and supervised by
responsible, qualified persons.

When  operating  electrical  systems,  certain  parts
of  those  systems  will  always  carry  a  hazardous
electrical  voltage  or  be  exposed  to  a  mechanical
load.  Only  appropriately  qualified  personnel  may
carry  out  work  on  the  system.  They  must  be
thoroughly familiar  with the content of this  and all
other manuals. In order for this system to function
safely  and  without  any  problems,  transportation,
storage,  operation  and  maintenance  must  be
carried out properly and carefully. Instructions and
information on the systems must also be heeded.

1.2

Installation

General safety notes

In order to ensure that the system will function
properly,

the relevant

standards

and

the

manufacturer’s installation instructions are to be
heeded during the installation of the system!

Documents from the manufacturer relating to the
heating devices and components used are
available from HERZ on request.

1.3

Operation and maintenance

1.3.1

General notes

Don´t  open  the  boiler  doors  until
“HEATING  OFF”  is  displayed,
otherwise  a  risk  of  deflagration
(explosion) is given.

In order for the system to be
operated and maintained safely, it
must be operated and maintained
properly by qualified personnel
while heeding the warnings in this
documentation

and

the

instructions on the systems.

unfavourable

operating

conditions, the temperatures of
parts of the housing may exceed
80 °C.

If the door to the ash container is
opened  during  operation,  the  fuel
supply  will  be  shut  off  and  the
boiler  will  switch  to  the  burnout
phase.  Afterwards  the  boiler  will
switch  to  the  operating  mode
“HEATING OFF”.

Ambient conditions

Operating temperature:

+10 to +40 °C

Warehouse-/ transport
temperature:

-20 to +70 °C

Humidity:

operation

5 to 85 %

storage

5 to 95 %

1.3.2

Operation

Covers  which  prevent  contact
with hot or rotating parts or which
are  required  in  order  to  direct  the
flow  of  air  correctly  and  thus
ensure the effective functioning of
the  system  must  not  be  opened
during operation.

In  the  event  of  a  fault  or  unusual
operating  conditions  such  as  the
emission  of  smoke  or  flames,  the
system  is  to  be  switched  off
immediately  by  operating  the
emergency  stop  button.    Notify
the  HERZ  Customer  Service
department immediately.

◼

If the boiler room door main switch is operated
or if a power failure occurs, the system will  be
taken  out  of  operation  immediately.  The
remaining  quantity  of  residual  fuel  will  burn
independently  without  giving  off  any  toxic
gases,  if  the  chimney  draught  is  sufficiently.
Therefore, the chimney must be designed and
produced  in  accordance  with  DIN  4705  or  EN
13384.  When  the  boiler  is  switched  on  again,
the system has to be checked in order to make
sure  that  it  is  fully  functional  and  a  safe
operation  of  the  whole  system  must  be
guaranteed!

◼

The generated system noise during operation
does not present any danger to the operator´s
health.

◼

If  the  residual  flue  gas  oxygen  content  drops
below  the  required  minimum  of  5  %,  the  fuel
supply  will  be  stopped  automatically  and  will
not be activated again until the residual oxygen
content  has risen to more than 5 % (fault text:
MIN O2 [%] 5.0. see chapter maintenance
