1.1 Important Safety Instructions
1.1.1 Do not remove, repair or replace any item on vessel while it is under pressure.
1.1.1 Do not operate if there is a leak in the vessel. Immediately take vessel out of service
and call your certifying authority.
1.1.3 Do not operate above maximum allowable working pressure (bar) at maximum oper-
ating temperature (°C) shown on CE nameplate.
1.1.4 Do not weld, grind or sand vessel. It will not be safe to operate.
1.1.5 Do not operate if the vessel has been damaged by fire. Take out of service immedi-
ately and notify your certifying authority.
1.1.6 Any damage to vessel can make it unsafe. Inspect outside and inside of vessel regu-
larly for corrosion or damage (i.e. dents, gouges or bulges). If damaged, take out of service
immediately and notify your certifying authority.
1.2 Recommended Safe Procedures
1.2.1 Never attempt to perform maintenance while the unit is under pressure or is even
capable of being pressurized. This means at a minimum the inlet ball valve should be
closed and ideally the air source be shut off or disconnected. Anytime if the manual blow-
down valve is closed it should be assumed that the unit is under pressure.
1.2.2 This machine contains high pressure air which can cause severe injury or death
from flying parts. Always relieve pressure before removing couplings, plugs, connections or
other parts from the pressurized air system.
1.2.3 Periodically check all hoses to see that they are in good condition. Repair any cou-
plings or hoses that show any signs of wear or leakage.
1.2.4 All air hose couplings are provided with holes which must be safety pinned or wired
to prevent accidental disconnections.
1.2.5 The interior condition of the vessel should be inspected regularly for corrosion.
