1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 BEFORE INITIA OPERATION MANDATORY REGU ATIONS
Be sure to read before using for the
rst time!
Warning:
ife-threatening re hazard!
Warning:
ife-threatening explosion hazard!
Warning:
Fatal electic shock!
Warning: Danger to life or injury of
people and considerable risk of da-
mage of device and plant!
Before initial operation, the operator must read
and understand these operating instructions
completely in order to avoid damage to life and
property. Operation of the device without under-
standing the operating instructions is never per-
mitted. The device is designed exclusively for
industrial use by personnel trained exclusively in
all technical matters.
Extensive knowledge of the device, the testing
technology, the safety instructions and the indu-
strial eld of application is absolutely necessary
for both a damage-free operation of the device
and not endangering the personnel and the wor-
king environment.
The device must never be connected to electrical
mains if you have not understood these instruc-
tions including safety warnings or if you cannot
or do not want to use the device according to the
regulations.
viZaar®is never liable for the consequences of
faulty test results, the loss of inspection data and
unforeseen remains of equipment parts in the in-
vestigated plant.

10
1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This device is used to examine and observe the
interior of machines, devices, materials and other
objects without damaging the object in question.
Do OT use in areas where explosive gases may
form. The corresponding ambient conditions (see
page 16 ff.) must be observed.
OTHER APPLICATIO S ARE OT ALLOWED!
The devices are not medical devices as dened
within the EU directive 93/42/EEC.
Intended use also includes following the instruc-
tions in this operating manual and observing the
maintenance instructions (chapter 6, page 73).
The VUCAM®units are OT explosion proof and
should OT be used in areas where there is a risk
of explosion.
The examined object must not contain any corro-
sive substances that could attack the compo-
nents of the device. These include acids in
particular. viZaar®accepts no liability for any cor-
rosion damage caused by such substances.
Important information for correct
use.
Useful information for correct use.
1.2 INTENDED USE

1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The device may not be used under any circum-
stances in potentially explosive or incendiary en-
vironments. The device is not equipped with
protective devices or approvals for operation in
potentially explosive or incendiary environ-
ments.
11
1.3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The device or parts of it may not be introduced
under any circumstances human or animal
body orices or used for (veterinary) medical ex-
aminations.
When operating the probe in the vicinity of ra-
dioactive energy sources as well as in areas with
(radioactive) contamination risks, the correspon-
ding occupational health and safety regulations
must be observed. Continuous exposure or
short-term exposure to/with radioactive sub-
stances can affect the lifetime and performance
parameters of the video probe and the device
depending on the dose rate.
Never insert the probe into plant components
that are unknown or unfamiliar!
Never use the probe with corrosive (acidic or al-
kaline) materials. Risk of destruction and injury
while operating the probe! Never bring the
probe into contact with liquids containing sol-
vents! Risk of destruction! Risk of injury when
pulling out the probe due to adhering product
residues!

1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
Do not insert the probe into a ammable gas or
liquid (e.g. a tank).
The video probe may not be operated in or in
the vicinity of apparatus or equipment that is
partially or fully live under electrical voltage of
any kind (e.g. transformers, motors, generators,
control panels, etc.). The metallic braiding of the
probe is electrically conductive and will always
transmit dangerous voltages on contact or even
trigger short circuits in the system!
Never insert the probe into system components
when welding or cutting work is being carried
out or will be carried out any time soon. The
probe must never be inserted if other test me-
thods such as eddy current or radiographic te-
sting are made on the same part of the plant.
Never insert the probe into plant areas that are
not completely switched off (e.g. danger by ro-
tating plant components) or cooled down.
Never leave the unit in operation unattended.
Switching off during work breaks is necessary
for safety reasons.
The device must be allowed to acclimatise to
ambient conditions before operating. This ap-
plies in particular to devices that are cooled
down in which condensate deposits during hea-
ting can cause accidents and destruction due to
unintentional electrical voltage ashover.

1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The use of excessively long mains extension ca-
bles is life-threatening and prohibited (maxi-
mum 25 metres for a 3 x 1.5mm² copper supply
cable).
Only original viZaar®accessories or spare parts
described in this manual may be used in con-
junction with the device.
13
The device must never be opened by the user.
Hazardous electrical voltages are used or gene-
rated in the device. The device may never be
operated under any circumstances with the
housing open. The device may not be operated
if there are audibly loose parts in the device.
The device may only be transported in the trans-
port container designed for this purpose. The
device and its accessories may only be stored in
the transport container in accordance with
these instructions.
The unit may only be operated within the opera-
ting conditions specied in these instructions or
stowed away under the specied storage conditi-
ons.
Avoid extended exposure to UV and solar radia-
tion.
Never carry or pull the VUCAM®by the probe
section as this can cause damage to the unit!

1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The device must not be operated with a dama-
ged video probe. There is a risk of injury due to
the metallic protective braid of the probe (re-
commendation: always wear work gloves as a
preventive measure). There is also a danger that
unintentional penetration of liquids in the probe
could permanently impair its function or cause
a life-threatening electric shock for the operator.
The operation of a slightly damaged probe can
lead to a total destruction of the head of the
probe. The operation of a damaged probe is not
permitted, as conformity with the regulations on
the emission of electromagnetic radiation can
no longer be complied with certainty.
14
The device must be checked at least once a year
by the manufacturer or an authorised third
party specialist in order to guarantee the elec-
trical safety regulations at the place of use. The
device must not be connected to the electrical
supply network or operated in any other way
after a defect or a change deviating from the de-
livered condition has been detected. This ap-
plies in particular if the device has fallen down
or fallen over or been exposed to a liquid.
Avoid tight windings and knots in the probe. Do
not step on the probe or the head of the probe.
Do not throw the probe head and the associa-
ted optics on the ground and avoid any other
blows to the probe. Possible irreparable da-
mage to your probe!

1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15
Please do not return any equipment without
rst arranging for it to be returned via tele-
phone/fax.
The probe must not be articulated in the sto-
rage position (lying in the case), otherwise the
probe will be damaged!
If operating the device outside its permissible
operating conditions or if the device is dama-
ged, the operation deviates from the instructi-
ons, the operating instructions are not
observed, non-original spare parts and acces-
sories are used or if the device is opened impro-
perly, the warranty obligation or promise of
guarantee of the supplier or manufacturer ex-
pires.
Replace batteries exclusively with original batteries
by viZaar®. To use unapproved or untested batte-
ries carries an inherent risk of damage, re or ex-
plosion to the unit and will invalidate the OEM
warranty.
