Procedures in the event of hazards and accidents
Hazardous electrical incident:
• Switch the mains switch off in order to interrupt the power supply
completely.
Fire:
• A fire in the electrical control system must be extinguished with a CO
2
fire extinguisher!
• Burning oil must be extinguished with a CO
2
fire extinguisher or powder
fire extinguisher!
Unconsciousness/paralysis due to nitrogen or refrigerant:
• While ensuring your
own safety
(e.g. self-contained breathing
apparatus) remove the affected persons to fresh air. Keep them warm
and calm.
Get medical attention immediately!
In case of respiratory
arrest, give artificial respiration.
Electric shock:
• While ensuring your
own safety
, interrupt the circuit as quickly as
possible (mains switch at the right side of the freeze-dryer). Keep the
affected persons warm and calm.
Get medical attention immediately!
Check consciousness and breathing continuously. In the case of
unconsciousness of lack of normal breathing, perform cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR).
Burns:
• Cool small-area burns (e.g. finger) immediately with cold water for
approximately 2 minutes.
• Do not cool if larger areas of the body surface are burnt since there is a
risk of hypothermia.
• Cover the burns loosely and in a sterile manner (e.g. with sterile
dressing).
• Keep the affected persons warm and calm.
Chemical burns:
• Eyes:
Rinse the eyes thoroughly with plenty of water with the lid gap wide
open for at least 15 minutes (eyewash bottle).
Consult an ophthal-
mologist immediately
even if there are no immediate symptoms. If
possible, continue rinsing the eyes during the transport to the ophthal-
mologist.
• Respiratory tract:
While using a
suitable breathing apparatus
, remove the affected
persons to fresh air. Keep them warm and calm.
Get medical attention
immediately!
In case of irregular breathing or respiratory arrest, give
artificial respiration.
