Constricted and wet areas
Caution!
When working in constricted, wet or hot areas,
use insulating supports and intermediate layers
as well as slip-on gloves made of leather or other
non-conductive materials to insulate your body
against the fl oor, walls, conductive parts of the
equipment and the like.
If you use small welding transformers for wel-
ding in places with an increase electrical risk,
for example in constricted areas with conductive
walls, (tanks, pipes, etc.), in wet areas (which
make work clothes wet) and in hot areas (pers-
piration on work clothes), the output voltage of
the welding set when idling must not exceed 42
V (effective value). Therefore, the equipment may
not be used for these purposes because its output
voltage is higher than this.
Safety clothing
Caution!
•
While working, the welder must protect his
entire body from radiation and burns by wea-
ring suitable clothing and a face guard.
•
Slip-on gloves made of a suitable material
(leather) must be worn on both hands. They
must be in perfect condition.
•
Suitable aprons must be worn to protect
clothing from sparks and burns. A safety suit
and, if necessary, head protection must be
worn if required by the type of work in questi-
on, e.g. overhead welding.
•
The safety clothing used as well as all acces-
sories must comply with the directive on “per-
sonal safety equipment”.
Protection from radiation and burns
Caution!
•
Provide information about the risk to eyes at
the working site in the form of a poster with
the wording “Caution – do not look at the
flames”. Workplaces are to be screened off
wherever possible so that personnel in the
vicinity are protected. Unauthorized persons
are to be kept away from the welding work.
•
The walls in the immediate vicinity of stationa-
ry workplaces may not have a light color or a
sheen. Windows up to head height are to be
protected against radiation passing through
them or reflecting off them, for example by
coating them with a suitable paint.
