on the rating plate for the complete unit, particularly
the data from the ATEX identification.
O Only use the product in normal industrial atmospheres.
O As the pressure medium, use compressed air
generated and prepared outside the explosive area.
O As the pressure medium, use only compressed air that
does not corrode the valve system and its sealing
materials.

Improper use

Any use other than that described under Intended use is
improper and is not permitted.
If unsuitable products are installed or used in safety-
relevant applications, this may result in unintended
system operating states that may lead to injuries and/or
equipment damage. Therefore, only use a product in
safety-relevant applications if such use is specifically
stated and permitted in the product documentation. For
example, in areas with explosion protection or in safety-
related components of control systems (functional safety).
AVENTICS GmbH is not liable for any damages resulting
from improper use. The user alone bears the risks of
improper use of the product.
Improper use of the product includes:
W
use in firedamp protection areas,
W
use of a valve system in explosive areas in a valve
system without ATEX certification,
W
if the valve system is mounted on rails in explosive areas,
W
use of the product for any application not stated in this
documentation or
W
use of the product under operating conditions that
deviate from those described in this documentation.

Personnel qualifications

Assembly and commissioning require basic electrical and
pneumatic knowledge, as well as knowledge of the
