First Aid measures
Below are some standard First Aid procedures which are implemented in the event of an accident caused by the use of the pump or
the machine/system where the pump is incorporated.
They can be helpful for operators in cases of emergency that occur during equipment use throughout the different stages of the
pump service life (transport, installation, operation, maintenance, adjustment, etc.) or otherwise occur to other operators who are
working in proximity of the machine.
3.9.1
Tasks of the First Aider
a)
To implement First Aid measures (emergency call).
b)
To evaluate the condition of the injured person and, where necessary, to support his/her vital functions.
c)
To stop external bleeding.
d)
To protect wounds and burns.
e)
To protect the injured person against further harm.
f)
To prevent useless or harmful actions such as to give drinks to the injured person or to move him/her, to reduce
dislocations and/or fractures, etc.
3.9.2
Emergency call
The success of a First Ad intervention also depends on how timely the rescuers manage to reach the place of the event.
This is why the first aider in charge of making the emergency call shall precisely specify:
-
the address of the place where the accident (or injury) occurred;
-
the number of injured (or sick) people;
-
the possible cause of the event;
-
the condition of the vital functions of the injured person, specifying whether the person is conscious and breathes
normally.
During the call it is appropriate:
•
to give your details, specifying a telephone number for further contacts;
•
to wait for the rescuers outside the company (e.g. at the reception).
The emergency call is the most important intervention. Follow the instructions of the Emergency Service people to make the first
aid intervention successful.
The plate* is located at the blind
plug in te top part of the pump.

The plate on the plug is the same
colour as the plug, which varies from
pump to pump.
