• The operator is responsible for compliance with the relevant regulations on the safety and instruction of

personnel involved in the installation, installation, commissioning, operation, cleaning and decommis-

sioning as well as maintenance and repair of the chamber as well as environmental protection.

• The battery test chamber detects the beginnings of an EUCAR Hazard levels 4 to 6 event and provides

signals via a two-stage alarm, the evaluation of which serves the user to take safety or countermeasures.

• The operator must operate the battery test chamber in an environment that reduces all effects of a non-

containment event of EUCAR Hazard levels 4 to 6 to a safe level. Danger to persons or the environment

must be safely ruled out.

• The battery test chamber can be completely destroyed in the event of this event.

2.5 Medical devices

The chambers are not classified as medical devices as defined by the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC

and Regulation (EU) No 2017/745.

Due to the special demands of the Medical Device Directive (MDD), these chambers are not

qualified to perform sterilization of medical devices as defined by the directive 93/42/EWG.

2.6 Personnel Requirements

Only trained personnel with knowledge of the handling of hazardous substances and lithium-ion accumu-

lators as well as knowledge of the operating instructions may set up and install, commission, operate, clean

and decommission the chamber. Further technical requirements (e.g. electrical knowledge) and knowledge

of the service manual are required for maintenance and repairs. The requirements specified by the operator

for PPE (personal protective equipment) must be observed. Training on handling compressed gas cylinders

is required to replace the CO

compressed gas cylinder.

2.7 Installation site requirements and ambient conditions

The chambers are designed for setting up inside a building (indoor use).

The requirements described in the Operating Manual for installation site and ambient conditions (chap. 8.4)

must be met.

Dangerous gases must be safely prevented from spreading to the surroundings of the chamber. Active

extraction (technical ventilation in accordance with national regulations) must be connected to the exhaust

port on the chamber. Extraction must remain effective throughout operation of the chamber. If the extraction

fails, the chamber must be disconnected from the power supply.

We recommend the installation of a CO

alarm system at the place of installation.

It must be possible to switch the chamber off immediately in the event of an error.

The chamber must not be operated without continuous monitoring.
