Customer responsibility
Planning the site and printer environment
The company owner or EHS manager is responsible for all preparation of the physical site. The following tasks
must be completed before the installation:
●Prepare the site for unloading.
●Make sure the route from the unloading site to the installation site meets specications. See Unloading
route on page 8.
●Make sure you have the necessary equipment to handle the printer, as well as a specialist mover who is
familiar with your site and the information provided in this guide. Meet the requirements for second oor
installations (if necessary). See Moving equipment on page 9.
●Congure the building's electrical system used to power the printer to meet the printer's requirements and
the Electrical Code requirements of the local jurisdiction of the country where the equipment is installed. A
qualied electrician is required to power up the printer on the day of installation. See Printer electrical
conguration on page 17 and Processing station electrical conguration on page 30.
●Provide an adequate air supply for the processing station’s pneumatic circuit. See Compressed air
on page 33.
●Ensure that the room in which the system is installed meets local environmental, health, and safety (EHS)
guidelines and regulations. See Environmental specications on page 11 and Ventilation on page 12.
●For the 4210, HP recommends using the HP Jet Fusion 3D 4210 Material Unloading Kit to unload material
from a material loading tank. If a customized unloading station is used to unload material from the
material loading tank, it is the customer’s responsibility to assess the installation by reference to the EPD
(Explosion Protection Document), DHA (Dust Hazard Analysis), or any required document of the local
jurisdiction of the country where the equipment is installed, to avoid the risk of explosion.
●Supply all necessary emergency equipment.
●Make sure the equipment is located in a restricted-access area, for authorized personnel only.
●The equipment is not intended for hazardous locations or ATEX-classied zones: ordinary locations only.
●Keep the equipment separated from other equipment that could create a combustible dust cloud or
metallic dust during operation, and keep it away from eective ignition sources (open ames, sparks, heat,
and so on). Do not place the equipment close to CNC, milling, cutting machines, or polishers, which may
2 Chapter 1 Overview ENWW
cause a signicant risk of metallic dust in the air, electrical sparks that may cause ignition, or oil and dust in
suspension in the air.
●Material storage, handling, and disposal should be performed as per local laws. See the Safety Data Sheets
at http://www.hp.com/go/msds for adequate handling and storage. Follow your environmental, health, and
safety processes and procedures.
Post-processing of parts
After printing the parts and removing the material in the processing station, you must clean the parts to remove
the thin layer of material attached to the surface. To do this, you need a bead-blasting machine. HP recommends
a bead-blasting machine with the following specications:
●For PA materials:
–Manual or automatic operation
–Air pressure in the range 2–5 bar (29–72.5 psi)
–Glass beads of 70–110 µm diameter (0.00276–0.00433 in)
●For TPU material:
–Manual or automatic operation
–Air pressure in the range 4–6 bar
–Glass beads of 250-425 μm diameter
Fire-ghting equipment
You must provide two re extinguishers for the site. Make sure the extinguishers are placed where they are
easily accessible in case of re.
●A re extinguisher certied for electrical res must be in the print-production area.
●A re extinguisher must be placed in the materials storage area, due to the large amount of combustible
dust (material).
Emergency exits and rst-aid stations should also be considered.
Network and computer environment
You are responsible for all computer and networking requirements, and you must complete the following tasks:
●Have an adequate network and computer ready for the day of installation. See Plan your computer and
network environment on page 34

tank)
–Flexible hoses should be suitable to transport combustible dust. Follow manufacturer’s instructions
to earth the hoses to protect them from electrostatic charging.
–Internal diameter of piping: approximately 36 mm.
–Maximum length of pipe routing: 10 m.
–Keep the number of bends along the route to a minimum. Use as large a bending radius as possible.
Hoses should be free from torsion in their routing and connection in order to avoid damage.
–Use metallic, rigid pipes where possible; and they should be properly grounded. Use piping with low
roughness on its the internal surface.
–Joints between pipe sections must be constructed correctly so that material does not build up around
the joints; you should ensure a good seal.
●Bulk discharging system

Safety questions and answers
Read and follow the operating and safety instructions before turning on the equipment.
Can the printer and processing station operate in unattended mode? Can they be
unsupervised during operation?
The printer can operate in unattended mode in this sense: for operations that do not require any manual
interaction, such as during the printing process, there is no need to have a trained operator close to the printer.
However, the system requires its operation to be supervised at all times. The reason for this requirement is that
this equipment uses high power levels. Therefore, in order to protect the system and the customer’s
environment, in the unlikely event of unexpected environmental change, unexpected malfunction, anomaly, ESD
(ElectroStatic Discharge), or electromagnetic interference, as explained in the user guide, someone needs to
press the emergency stop button and disconnect the equipment. For this reason, operation should be
supervised in some way (periodic checks, security cameras, or equivalent). However, supervision can be done by
someone who is not trained to operate the system, such as a standard security service. This needs to be done
from the rst day of system installation.
Are there any requirements for the room in which the printer and processing station are
installed?
Both the printer and the processing station should be installed in ordinary locations only. An ordinary location is
a location that is not expected to have combustible dust clouds, and therefore it does not need any specic
protection against explosions. The opposite would be a hazardous location or ATEX-classied zone, in which you
can expect to nd combustible dust clouds, and which is therefore generally constructed to resist explosions
caused by an ignition source close to the dust clouds.
The equipment should be installed in ordinary locations for these reasons:
●The equipment does not create a hazard in the area in which it is installed:
–It has been designed to minimize material spillage, and we expect regular cleaning maintenance by
the operators, therefore any spillage is unlikely to reach a concentration causing a potentially
explosive atmosphere around the equipment.
–There are no eective ignition sources inside the equipment.
●The equipment is not designed to be used in explosive atmospheres, therefore it should not be installed in
a hazardous location or ATEX-classied zone.
Therefore, the printer and processing station do not require any specic setup in the room to make it safe
against potential explosions, as they do not create such a risk; but they should be protected against any risks
created by other equipment installed nearby.
