4.4 EQUIPMENT’S TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The dimensions, the bulkheads, the connection dimensions and the weights of the different filters are reported on the component cards enclosed at the end of this handbook (page 22-23) Filters should operate only with: - aqueduct or ground water - seawater; - water mixed with sodium hypochlorite in compliance with the UNI 901:2002 rule in a solution of max 0,2 mg/l ( 2 ppm). The equipment can be submitted to the working pressure of: 1,5 bar (6-10-14-22 m3/h) 2,5 bar (35 m3/h) The fluid temperature used by the equipment should be included in the following range: Tmin: +5°C Tmax: +40°C

For its own conformation, for its structural prerogatives and for the work that should be accomplish, the equipment shows some not eliminable risks hereafter described.

In addition to the risks presciently underlined, it is possible to suppose that, although it has been indicated more than once how to behave properly to limit the risks, there could be situations of anomalous behaviour (incorrect use). The risks caused by an incorrect use and their prevention are summarized in the following table.

In this way, with the application of what mentioned and arranged, we have prepared a remedy for all kind of not eliminable risks, consequently, there should be no damages. Anyway, the operator should check the absence of people in the risk zone before doing any operation. The operator should take precautions by wearing the necessaries individual protection means (gloves, glass, anti-noise devices, accident prevention shoes). ATTENTION Before the installation check that the inlet system, connected to the filter, is provided with suitable devices which limit and prevent the overflow of the maximum pressure inside the filtration system (4 bar). ATTENTION If it is provided that if the fluid temperature can go below the freezing point, isolate the equipment from the inlet system connected to it and empty it, according to the conditions specified in the maintenance section.
