Chapter 2 Safety
2.3 General safety instructions
The basic prerequisite for safe handling and trouble-free operation of the mobile
dedusting device is knowledge of the basic safety instructions and occupational safety
regulations.
These operating instructions contain all important information for safe operation of
the mobile dust extractor.
Although the use of the dedusting unit is mobile thanks to the caster rollers, the
device must nevertheless be assigned a fixed destination and possibly also protected
depending on local conditions (e.g. forklift traffic). The intake and exhaust grilles must
be kept clear.
The on-site work safety regulations must be observed.
DANGER
Danger of explosion if used in dust explosive areas of zones 21 and 22.
Do not use the devices under any circumstances in dust explosive areas (zones
21 and 22 in accordance with Directive 1999/92/EC) or underground!
DANGER Danger to life from touching parts that have become live in the event of a fault.
All work on the electrical control system must be carried out in accordance
with the statutory regulations and those of the employers' liability insurance
association.
NOTE
Corrosion, failure of machine parts, material damage.
Only operate the mobile dust collector in closed, dry rooms.
Only dry and non-explosive substances may be filtered.
Operation in damp or explosive areas is not permitted.
NOTE
The operation of the mobile dedusting device without safety systems is
negligent action! Operating the mobile dedusting device without safe
ty systems does
not qualify as "foreseeable misuse"!
For this reason, these operating instructions do not explicitly draw attention to
dangers that may arise from operating the mobile dedusting device without safety
systems.

Chapter 2 Safety
Residual hazards
NOTE
Residual hazards are hazards which, despite a safe design and technical protective
devices, represent an unavoidable, non-obvious risk due to the use of the product.
All safety instructions in this operating manual must be observed in order to avert
residual hazards.
All work on the mobile dedusting device must comply with the statutory and
employers' liability insurance association regulations.
Unauthorized changes
Unauthorized modifications can cause dangers for the mobile dust removal unit.
Modifications, additions or conversions that may compromise safety must not be
made to the mobile dust collector.
2.4 General protective measures
Everyone who works on the mobile dedusting device must make sure that there is
never any danger to people. This is especially important if there are several people
in the vicinity of the mobile dust collector.
Safety devices, protective devices and protective equipment must be used and
maintained appropriately. Misuse, unauthorized removal and damage are prohibited.
Children must always be denied access to the equipment. In case of disregard aeropur
GmbH cannot be held liable.
The measures taken against unauthorised starting and unauthorised operation
of the mobile dedusting device must not be bypassed.
Repairs to working machines during operation as well as the cleaning of running
parts are prohibited.
The following accident prevention regulations have been complied with for the
mobile dedusting device.
General regulations DGUV V1 (former BGV A1 or VBG 1)

3Functional description
3.1 Intended Use
The mobile dedusting device of aeropur GmbH is designed for the improvement of
breathing air quality in closed rooms. It works according to the recirculation process,
which means that the different air layers are circulated with simultaneous filtering of
the air particles.
The unit is designed exclusively for conveying and filtering of air.
Any other use or use beyond that is considered improper and constitutes misuse of
the equipment.
Customer equipment must be able to withstand the mechanical and thermal stresses
that may be caused by this equipment.
Intended use also includes:
•Use the device only in networks earthed to the outer conductor.
•Connect the unit to a residual current circuit breaker (RCD).
•Use the device at an ambient air pressure of 750 mbar to 1050 mbar.
•Use the device according to the permissible ambient temperature (see chapter
3.8 Safety systems).
•Only operate the device with all protective systems.
•Observe the operating instructions.
3.2 Reasonably foreseeable misuse
Any use other than that described above may result in hazards and damage and is not
intended. This includes in particular:
•Conveying air without filters or guards
•Operation with fully or partially dismantled or manipulated protective
devices
•The conveyance of air which has a highly corrosive effect, e.g. salt spray
•Operation in the vicinity of flammable substances or components
•The operation of the device in an explosive atmosphere
•The use of the device as a safety-related component or for the assumption of
safety-relevant functions

•The use of non-tested air filters
•The use of air filters of a class other than the specified one
•Operation, maintenance and servicing by untrained personnel
•All other application possibilities not mentioned in the intended use
3.3 Subsequently installed components
•For subsequently installed components and conversions, the operator must
carry out a corresponding assessment of the hazards.

13779.
The air filters used are certified in accordance with DIN EN 779:2012.
For the filtration of hazardous substances, suspended matter filters such as Hepa or
ULPA filters are required. Further information on hazardous substances can be found
in TRGS900 (Technical Rules for Hazardous Substances).

4Storage, transport and installation
4.1 General information on storage, transport and installation
•During storage, completely protect the product against the effects of weather,
humidity, temperature fluctuations and other influences that may cause damage.
•To protect against soiling, cover the product with a protective film for storage.
•The permissible ambient temperature for transport and storage is
-40 to +80 degrees.
When setting up the machine, the following safety instructions must be observed -
this will prevent fatal injuries, machine damage and other material damage.
WARNING Risk of impact and crushing during loading.
If the machine as an entire unit falls during loading, severe injuries may occur if
someone is standing under the machine.
When lifting by crane, use sufficiently dimensioned hoisting and slinging gear.
When lifting with a forklift, ensure horizontal transport.
Nobody must be standing under a lifted load.
Wear PPE: head protection, gloves, foot protection.
Before first use, remove all packaging material (disposal of packaging material: see
chapter 9.1).
When unpacking, check whether the dedusting device has been damaged during
transport.
To prevent personal and material damage, place the unit on a firm surface so that it
cannot tip over.
Observe the regulations of the statutory accident prevention regulations.
Make sure at all times that the air supply to the air intake panel is not covered or
otherwise interrupted. In this case, the device no longer provides any power and a
device defect cannot be ruled out.
Please also read the chapter "General safety instructions".
