Every person working with the Condair CP3 D must have read and understood the Technical Docu-
mentation before carrying out any work.
Knowing and understanding the contents of the Technical Documentation is a basic requirement for
protecting the personnel against any kind of danger, to prevent faulty operation, and to operate the
unit safely and correctly.
All ideograms, signs and markings applied to the unit must be observed and kept in readable
state.
Qualification of personnel
All actions described in the present Technical Documentation (installation, operation, maintenance,
etc.) must be carried out only by well trained and sufficiently qualified personnel authorised by
the owner.
For safety and warranty reasons any action beyond the scope of this manuals must be carried out
only by qualified personnel authorised by the manufacturer.
It is assumed that all persons working with the Condair CP3 D are familiar and comply with the ap-
propriate regulations on work safety and the prevention of accidents.
Intended use
The steam generator Condair CP3 D is intended exclusively for generation of steam for a steam
bath within the specified operating conditions (see chapter 10 “Product specifications”). Any
other type of application without the express written consent of the manufacturer is considered as not
conforming with the intended purpose and may lead to the Condair CP3 D becoming dangerous.
Operation of the equipment in the intended manner requires that all the information in these
instructions is observed (in particular the safety instructions).

Danger that may arise from the unit
– The Condair CP3 D is mains powered.
WARNING!
One may get in touch with live parts when the unit is open. Touching live
parts may cause severe injury or danger to life.
Prevention: Before carrying out any work set the Condair CP3 D out of operation as de-
scribed in chapter 6.3 (switch off the unit, disconnect it from the mains and
stop the water supply) and secure the unit against inadvertent power-up.
– The Condair CP3 D produces steam.When producing steam, the steam cylinder inside the
steam generator gets very hot (up to 100 °C).
WARNING!
If the unit is opened immediately after having produced steam there is danger
of burning when touching the steam cylinder.
Prevention: Before carrying out any work set the Condair CP3 D out of operation as de-
scribed in chapter 6.3, then wait until the evaporation unit has cooled down
sufficiently thus preventing danger of burning.
Behaviour in case of danger
If it is suspected that safe operation is no longer possible, then the Condair CP3 D should imme-
diately be shut down and secured against accidental power-up according to chapter 6.3. This
can be the case under the following circumstances:
– if the Condair CP3 D or its mains cable is damaged
– if the Condair CP3 D is no longer operating correctly
– if connections and/or piping are not sealed
All persons working with the Condair CP3 D must report any alterations to the unit that may affect
safety to the owner without delay.
Prohibited modifications to the unit
No modifications must be undertaken on the Condair CP3 D without the express written consent
of the manufacturer.
For the replacement of defective components use exclusively original accessories and spare parts
available from your Condair supplier.
