Equipment safety
Introduction
All equipment is designed and manufactured to Internationally Recognized
Safety Standards to ensure that the health and safety of the operator is
protected at all times. This is conditional to equipment being installed
correctly by qualified personnel and operating instructions are strictly
adhered to.
Everyone who is required to work with the drying equipment in any way, i.e.
Installers, Operators, Service Engineers etc., must be made familiar with
these safety instructions.
The equipment is designed for the accelerated drying of UV inks and
coatings. No attempt should be made to dry alternative materials unless
these have been cleared by the supplier for this drying technique.
This equipment is not designed for use in hazardous areas or hazardous
environments (i.e. it is not flameproof).
High temperatures
UV reflector systems generally run at extremely high temperatures. It is
therefore necessary to check that any exposed parts which may be touched
by an operator or personnel are kept below a temperature of 60° C,
dependent on the material type.
If you find that any surface is above 60° C please contact the Nordson UV
service department.
High voltage
The UV curing equipment works at high voltages. It is therefore essential
that should any fault develop, the operator is made aware that he should:
Switch the equipment off immediately, make no attempt to service the
equipment himself, but call a qualified electrician, trained to service this type
of equipment.
NOTE: This applies to the changing of lamps, where a possible lamp fault
has occurred.
