2.3. Intended use
The device is intended for commercial use. If the device is made publicly accessible, it must never be
operated unsupervised by authorized personnel, authorized by the operator.
The filter unit is intended as suction and pre-filtration unit of fumes that result from lasers jobs.
WARNING
Improper use can damage parts and be a danger to life and limb!
The device must not be used for the extraction of oil-laden welding fume, explosive dust
and gases, hybrid mixtures, glowing or burning substances, gases, water, etc. The
device must not be operated in explosive zones.
Dangers arising from fire.
If the sucked medium is combustible fume or dust, the operator must determine
beforehand which fire protection measures are to be taken.
2.4. Residual risk
CAUTION
Danger due to possible hazardous materials in the exhaust air flow.
Because the unit does not monitor the quality of the air in the exhaust air flow, we
recommend that you always guide the exhaust air flow exiting our unit to areas (e.g. to the
outside into the open air) in which there is no danger to any living being. To do this, it is
necessary to fit a suitable exhaust air line at the filter unit.
