Before starting cleaning or any other manual work, the high-voltage in the spray area
must be shut down and locked to prevent it from being switched back on.
Lock the supply of compressed air and decompress the system.
Secure the device against being switched back on without authorization.
Use only electrically conducting and grounded containers for cleaning fl uids.
Preference should be given to non-fl ammable cleaning fl uids.
Flammable cleaning fl uids may only be used if, once the high-voltage has been
switched off and all parts carrying high-voltage are discharged to a discharge energy
of less than 0.24 mJ before they can be reached.
Most
fl ammable solvents have a fi ring power of around 24 mJ or 60 nC.
The cleaning agent's fl ash point must be at least 15 K above the ambient temperature.
Only mobile industrial vacuum cleaners of design 1 (see EN 60335-2) may be used to
remove dust deposits.
