General safety notes

Activities such as installation, connection and
commissioning may only be carried out by qualified
personnel.
Qualified personnel are persons whose technical
training, knowledge and experience as well as knowledge
of the relevant regulations allow them to assess the work
assigned to them, recognize possible hazards and take
appropriate safety measures.
The operator is responsible for ensuring that local safety
regulations are observed.
In particular, the operator must take steps to ensure that a
defect in the product will not result in hazards to persons
or equipment.
The product must not be opened, modified or changed. If
defects and unresolvable faults occur in the product, take
it out of service and secure against unauthorized use.
The BNI modules generally have good chemical and oil
resistance. When used in aggressive media (e.g.
chemicals, oils, lubricants and coolants) in high
concentrations (e.g. due to low water content), the material
resistance must be checked in advance for the specific
application. In the event of failure or damage to the BNI
modules due to these kinds of aggressive media, claims
for defects are ruled out.
