9. Product information

9.1 Use for the Intended Purpose

The compressor is intended to be used for generating compressed air required for operating dental units
of, for similar dental applications and other applications where oil-free compressed air is required.
Installation in medical care facilities:
In designing and constructing the compressor, allowance has been made for the requirements of medical
products where applicable. Accordingly, the unit can be used for installation in medical care facilities. If the
unit is installed in medical care facilities, the requirements stipulated in Directive 93/42 EEC IEC 60601-1
as well as the relevant norms must be observed as applied to installation and assembly.
9.2 Use other than that for the Intended Purpose
The compressed air produced by the compressor is unsuitable for operating breathing equipment or simi-
lar facilities without additional filters required for the operating area.
•The compressors are designed to be operated in dry, ventilated rooms,ambient temperature +5 to +40 °C.
• The compressors are designed for non-continuous operation: the ratio of the ON cycle time to the ON +
OFF cycle (duty cycle) is 50% for the META Air 24/30 and 70% for the META Air and META CAM from
150 to 1300.
• Do not expose the compressor to rain. The machine must not be operated in a damp or wet environment.
Use is also prohibited in proximity to gases or combustible liquids.
• Prior to installing the compressor in medical facilities, it must be ensured that the available medium
complies with the requirements stipulated for the relevant purpose in each individual case. Observe the
particulars given in Appendix A "Compressors dimensions and technical datasheet ".
When installing, classification and conformity rating must be carried out by the manufacturer of the ultimate
product.
• When installed in medical care facilities, the electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding
EMC and needs to be installed according to EMC information
• The compressor should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment and if adjacent or
stacked use is necessary, the compressor should be observed to verify normal operations in the configu-
ration in which it will be used
• Please consider that mobile RF communications equipment can effect the compressor electrical equip-
ment
• Any other use or use beyond what is specified is deemed to be not for the intended purpose. The manu-
facturer accepts no liability for damage resulting there from. All risk is borne solely by the operator/user.

9.3 Product Description
