EMC measures In certain cases, even though a device complies with the standard limit values for emis-
sions, it may affect the application area for which it was designed (e.g. when there is
sensitive equipment at the same location, or if the site where the device is installed is
close to either radio or television receivers).
If this is the case, then the operator is obliged to take appropriate action to rectify the
situation.
Check for possible problems, and check and evaluate neighbouring devices' resistance
to interference according to national and international requirements:
-
Safety devices
- Power, signal and data transfer lines
- IT and telecommunications devices
- Measuring and calibrating devices
Supporting measures for avoidance of EMC problems:
1.
Mains supply
-
If electromagnetic interference arises despite correct mains connection, addi-
tional measures are necessary (e.g. use a suitable line filter).
2. Control lines
-
must be kept as short as possible
- must run close together (to avoid EMF problems)
- must be kept well apart from other leads
3. Equipotential bonding
4. Shield, if necessary
-
Shield off other nearby devices
- Shield off entire welding installation
EMF measures Electromagnetic fields may pose as yet unknown risks to health:
-
effects on the health of others in the vicinity, e.g. wearers of pacemakers and hear-
ing aids
- wearers of pacemakers must seek advice from their doctor before approaching the
device or any welding that is in progress
- for safety reasons, keep distances between the welding cables and the welder's
head/torso as large as possible
- do not carry welding cables and hosepacks over the shoulders or wind them around
any part of the body
Safety measures
at the installation
location and dur-
ing transport A device toppling over could easily kill someone. Place the device horizontally on a level,
firm and solid surface and anchor it securely to prevent it toppling over.
Special regulations apply in rooms at risk of fire or explosion
-
Observe relevant national and international regulations.
Use internal directives and checks to ensure that the workplace environment is always
clean and clearly laid out.
When transporting the device, observe the relevant national and local guidelines and
accident prevention regulations. This applies especially to guidelines regarding the risks
arising during transport.
After transporting the device, it must be visually inspected for damage before commis-
sioning. Any damage must be repaired by trained service technicians before commis-
sioning the device.
