Information sur les champs électromagnétiques

Données sur le soudage électrique et sur les effets, pour l’organisme,
des champs magnétiques basse fréquence

Le courant de soudage, pendant son passage dans les câbles de sou-
dage, causera des champs électromagnétiques. Il y a eu et il y a encore
un certain souci à propos de tels champs. Cependant, après avoir ex-
aminé plus de 500 études qui ont été faites pendant une période de
recherche de 17 ans, un comité spécial ruban bleu du National Re-
search Council a conclu: “L’accumulation de preuves, suivant le
jugement du comité, n’a pas démontré que l’exposition aux champs
magnétiques et champs électriques à haute fréquence représente un
risque à la santé humaine”. Toutefois, des études sont toujours en cours
et les preuves continuent à être examinées. En attendant que les con-
clusions finales de la recherche soient établies, il vous serait
souhaitable de réduire votre exposition aux champs électromagnéti-
ques pendant le soudage ou le coupage.

Afin de réduire les champs électromagnétiques dans l’environnement
de travail, respecter les consignes suivantes :

1

Garder les câbles ensembles en les torsadant ou en les
attachant avec du ruban adhésif.

2

Mettre tous les câbles du côté opposé de l’opérateur.

3

Ne pas courber pas et ne pas entourer pas les câbles autour de
votre corps.

4

Garder le poste de soudage et les câbles le plus loin possible de
vous.

5

Relier la pince de masse le plus près possible de la zone de
soudure.

Consignes relatives aux stimulateurs cardiaques :

Les personnes qui portent un stimulateur cardiaque doivent avant tout
consulter leur docteur. Si vous êtes déclaré apte par votre docteur, il est
alors recommandé de respecter les consignes ci–dessus.
