2.1 Intended use
The intended use comprises:
● Formation of the combustion space rotating in the longitudinal axis. The said
combustion space is for the burning of powdery, small-sized or sludgy feed
material
The rotary kiln is not a machine that is ready for use.
The rotary kiln is intended for use in conjunction with other components to form a
rotary kiln plant.
The rotary kiln may only be used if the requirements specified in the section
Technical data are complied with.
The intended use also includes compliance with all instructions in this operating
manual. Any use other than for the specified intended use shall be deemed
misuse.
Time limits
The rotary kiln is designed for a five-year service life, provided that maintenance
work is carried out as stipulated. However, based on product-monitoring results, a
longer service life has been observed with proper performance of maintenance
and a general overhaul on expiry of the specified period of use, including
replacement of all safety components.
Spatial boundaries
The rotary kiln begins at the rotary kiln inlet (2.9) and ends after the kiln hood
(11.0).

10 Troubleshooting
10.1 Safety instructions
WARNING
Improper troubleshooting
Improper performance of fault-elimination work may lead to severe injuries
and damage to property.
I. Before commencing the work, ensure that there is adequate space
to carry it out.
II. Keep the work area clean and tidy. Components or tools that are
loosely lying on top of each other or lying around on the floor are
potential causes of accidents.
III. If components have been removed, make sure that assembly is
carried out properly. Remount all fastening elements and be sure to
comply with the specified tightening torques.
IV. Perform and complete fault-elimination work in accordance with the
instructions in the technical documentation.
V. If, for the purpose of eliminating faults, work has to be performed in
the danger area, switch off the machine and secure it against
restarting.
VI. Never deactivate protection devices during operation.
VII. Depending on the type of fault, only permit appropriately qualified
personnel to perform fault elimination.
Tables with detailed information about other faults, their causes and their
elimination are contained in the separate operating manuals for the individual
subassemblies. For the numbers of the operating manuals, see the section
Technical data (see page 3-1).
