1Safety
This device is built according to corresponding international standards. Like with every
technical product incorrect or not intended use can however be dangerous.
Follow the instructions in this operating manual in addition to the general safety regulations.
Caution - Danger!
When working with the device, please note and observe the safety instructions and
requirements in these operating instructions because non-compliance may result in
serious or fatal injury.
1.1 Residual risks
This device has been manufactured in accordance with the current state of the art.
However, it is impossible to eliminate residual risks.
Always adhere to the following safety instructions:
Caution –Electrical voltage!
Only use the external power plug provided.
Danger from mains voltage. If the external power plug is visibly damaged:
- Do not use the damaged part.
- Have the damaged parts repaired by a qualified person or replace them.
Danger from sparks on the piezo element and the substrate to be treated:
- Do not reach into the area of the plasma discharge.
- Electrically conductive substrates must be grounded or protected against touching.
Attention –Emissions!
Dangerous amounts of the reaction gas ozone (O3) may be produced during device
operation.
- Volumes of ozone in excess of 0.2 mg/m³ may be produced.
- Note that national health and safety measures must be observed when operating
the device.
- Only use the device in well ventilated areas or in conjunction with a suitable
extraction device.
- Do not leave the device running unattended.
- Do not point the device at people when in operation.

Attention –Damage to device!
Under no circumstances may the fan cover on the rear side of the device be closed. This
would interrupt the supply of cooling medium required in operation.
Never touch the piezo element at the front of the device with sharp-edged objects. This
component may be damaged by improper handling.
Protect the device from falls or other hard impacts which may damage the electronics or
piezo element.
Caution –hot surface!
The exchange modules can become hot during operation. Do not touch them until they
have cooled down and take care not to damage thermally sensitive surfaces when working
with the exchange modules.
The workpiece to be treated can also heat up during the plasma process, depending on the
process parameters. If necessary, allow the workpiece to cool down before touching it.
Attention! Device for use in industrial environment
Due to the presence of both conducted and radiated interference, this device may have
difficulty in ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments.
