AND
TESTING
INFORMATION
4.1 SAFETY FOR INSTALLATION AND TESTING
All the installation stages must be an integral part of the general project.
Before starting these stages, the person authorized to carry out these
operations, apart from identifying the technical requirements, must
implement a “safety plan”, if necessary, to protect the personal safety of
the directly involved people and must strictly implement the safety
regulations, in particular any laws on mobile yards.
4.2 INSTALLATION
AREA
During the design stage, the area were the machine is to be installed
must be identified, taking into account a series of requirements, in
particular:
-
the area must be perfectly flat and must ensure stability over time
-
if installed on the floor of a building, this must be of adequate
capacity
-
its position must not disturb the peace
-
it must be easily accessible to all people who must interact with it
during its expected useful life
-
all maintenance and replacement jobs (either ordinary or
extraordinary) must be carried out easily and without any hazard to
people, according to the applicable industrial safety laws.
-
the volumetric spaces must be adequate to ensure the air inflow
necessary for the machine’s proper operation and ventilation.
-
if the passage of people and vehicles near the machine is expected,
install a suitable fence conforming to any applicable standard,
leaving the minimum space allowed for all jobs on the machine.
4.3 DIMENSIONS OF THE PERIMETRICAL AREA
This area must be designed according to the model, the number of units
and the characteristics of the installation site.
4.4 PRESETTING THE CONNECTIONS
Before installing the machine, make sure that the electrical connection
conforms to the design specifications and the data reported in the
identification plate.
WARNING - CAUTION
The power line must be provided with a main switch, so that the
machine can be insulated from the power source.
