Safety 3

3.1 Basic safety instructions

Klein blowers are designed and produced in accordance with generally accepted technology, occupational and accident prevention practices and in accordance with the requirements of the directive 94/9/EC for machines and protective systems for the designated use in explosive environments, as well as the requirements of the Machine and Product Safety Act

[GPSG or equivalent other national regulations]. They correspond to the state of the art.

Nevertheless, blowers in operation can be the source of hazardous conditions, especially when hazardous conditions are created as a result of

 inappropriate use or

 non-designated use

.

For this reason, all instructions for the use of the blower must be adhered to.

Instruction!

The blower may only be placed into operation when in impeccable overall condition, only with an undamaged housing and impeller wheel, and only with a fully operational, safe electrical hook-up. Operating a defective machine is a danger to life and limb.

Easily ingested materials, such Styrofoam, fabric rags, or similar may not be located in the vicinity of the intake. Care must be taken that sufficient clearance is provided to the intake.

Take note of the air exhaust direction and area. The fragments from an impeller wheel failure must be prevented from damaging the downstream equipment to be cooled.

The electrical installation must correspond to the requirements of the machine into which the blowers are to be installed (i.e. motor cut-off switch).

The personnel must be familiar with all steps described in this operating manual that relate to the proper operation and use of this equipment.

In areas with dust build-up and dust load in the environment; the dust deposits must be held low enough to prevent the dust smoldering temperature from being reached;

Explosion-protected blowers may not be repaired by the customer. To maintain the explosion protection, blowers may only be repaired or maintained for preventive purposes by the manufacturer.

To avoid combustion hazards from dust deposits, cleaning intervals must be rigorously complied with. The cleaning operation must be performed with diligence.

The dust buildup must not exceed a thickness of 5mm.

3 Safety

3.2. Emissions

3.1.1 Dust

The incidence of hazardous emissions is dependent on the various media to be conveyed

3.1.2 Noise

The noise profile depends on the installation type, on the environmental conditions and the respective operating load on the blower.

The operating noise levels of the blower can reach high levels for certain installation types and usages. The values can range from 60 to 110 dB (A). Detailed acoustic pressure levels can be found in the KLEIN catalog.

If work must be performed in the vicinity, appropriate noise protection steps must be taken by the operating entity as part of its duties in accordance with the Operational Safety

Directive [BetrSichV or equivalent other national regulations], for instance hearing protection.

3.1.3 Vibrations

KLEIN blowers are designed to such a high balance quality grade that no dangerous vibrations will occur.

The vibrations resulting from the unavoidable residual imbalance can be reduced by installing the equipment with vibration dampers, thus preventing the vibration from being transferred to other components.

External vibrations or impacts must be prevented from being transferred to the blower. The blower must not be exposed to dynamic forces.

3.2 Overheating protection

To avoid potential overheating, the operating entity can request a thermal winding protector when placing the order.

Under all circumstances, the operating entity must avoid excessive dust buildup on the surface by timely cleaning. The dust buildup must not exceed a thickness of 5mm.

7 Maintenance, care and repair instructions

Maintenance, care and repair instructions

Instruction!

Depending on the intended use of the blower and the respective system concept, the operating entity may consider additional cleaning and/or maintenance intervals.

Unauthorized repair of damage or exchange of components are hazardous. This renders the explosion protection features ineffective.

7.1 Maintenance and care

When using condensation water drainage holes, or when the equipment is deployed in locations with dew buildup, causing condensation water to collect in the motor's interior, the collected condensation water must be drained in regular intervals via the condensation water drainage opening at the lowest point of the bearing enclosure; the drainage opening must be subsequently resealed.

The dust buildup on the equipment surface must not exceed a thickness of 5mm.

The blower wheel must be regularly inspected for contamination and cleaned to identify imbalances of the blower wheel early, and to prevent imbalances.

7.2 Inspect and exchange bearings

Inspect the unimpeded operation of bearings in regular intervals by monitoring the operating noises; replace as needed.

The ball bearings must be replaced by the manufacturer or an authorized repair shop after no more than 18,000 operating hours or 3 years.

7.3 Repair instructions and procedures

Do not perform customer repairs on defective, damaged or unevenly running blowers, but send the equipment to the manufacturer for repair.

The manufacturer will ensure that repairs are performed properly and that the equipment is properly balanced.

Only qualified and trained personnel should perform the disassembly of the blower.

Attention! Potential for damage to the equipment!

When balancing weight clips (1) are relocated or removed from the blower fins, an imbalance results.

Never perform repairs on the blower on your own. If the assembly is not performed properly, any subsequent use may create an explosion hazard.

7 Maintenance, care and repair instructions

Additional steps to be taken when deploying blowers in zone 21

Instruction!

Pursuant to DIN EC 14986, a permanent vibration monitoring system that is mounted directly to the blower has been mandatory since May 2007 on blowers operating in zone

21.

Blowers can be procured from Karl Klein with the corresponding devices installed. In this case, the customer will be provided with an installed vibration sensor and an optional, separate monitoring device.

The monitoring device must be installed outside of the explosive area. Please refer to the corresponding operating manuals.

When implementing a customer designed solution, the following issues need to be taken into consideration:

Only vibration sensors that are certified for zone 21 may be used.

The vibration sensor should preferably be installed on the A-side bearing enclosure of the drive motor, in a horizontal orientation to the installation orientation.

The nominal sensor signal must be transmitted to a control or monitoring device that is located outside of the explosive area. The control must shut the blower down if the blower reaches critical vibration levels.
