Persons with pacemakers must seek advice from their doctor before staying in the imme-
diate vicinity of where the welding work is taking place.
Supporting measures to avoid EMC problems:
a) Grid power supply
- If electromagnetic interference occurs despite a grid connection that complies
with regulations, take additional measures (e.g., use a suitable grid filter).
a) Welding power-leads
- Keep them as short as possible
- Route them close together (also to avoid EMC problems)
- Route them far from other lines
a) Equipotential bonding
b) Workpiece grounding
- If necessary, establish grounding using suitable capacitors
a) Shield, if necessary
- Shield other devices in the vicinity
- Shield the entire welding installation
Particular Hazard
Areas Laser beam poses a risk of injury to the eyes. In addition to using the protective shield
with a regulation-compliant UV filter insert, eyes should be protected from laser beams
using regulation-compliant safety glasses for lasers. It must still be ensured, however,
that no one can accidentally look into the laser beam.
If the workpiece surface is especially bright or highly reflective, reflected laser-scattering
radiation poses a further risk. Take suitable precautions so that persons present have
adequate protection from laser-scattering radiation also.
Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools away from moving parts, such as:
-
Ventilators
- Gear wheels
- Rollers
- Shafts
- Wirespools and welding wires
Do not insert body parts into rotating gear wheels on the wire drive or into rotating drive
parts.
Covers and side parts must only be opened/removed during maintenance and repair
work.
During operation:
-
Ensure that all covers are closed and all side parts have been mounted properly.
- Keep all covers and side parts closed.
Welding wire from the welding torch poses a high risk of injury (cuts to the hand, injuries
to the face and eyes, etc.).
For this reason, always hold the welding torch away from your body (devices with
wirefeeder) and wear suitable protective goggles.
Do not touch workpieces during or after welding – risk of burns.
Slag may fly off from workpieces that are cooling down. For this reason, be sure to wear
regulation-compliant protective equipment and ensure that other people are sufficiently
protected even when reworking workpieces.
Leave the welding torch and other parts with a high operating temperature to cool before
working on them.
