ATTENTION
GASES AND FUMES
Using MIG / MAG techniques produces harmful gases and fumes containing ozone and hydro
-
gen as well as oxides or metal particles. Therefore, the welding work station should
be fitted with very good ventilation (dust and smoke extraction or airy location) Metal surfaces
intended for welding should be free from chemical contamination, especially degreasers (so
-
lvents) that
decompose during welding process and produce toxic gases. Welding of galvanized, cadmium-
-coated or chromium-plated parts is permitted only when a suction and filtering device is fitted,
and with introduction of fresh air to the welding work station.
RADIATION
Ultraviolet radiation emitted during welding is harmful to eyesight and skin. Therefore a welding
mask with protective filters is required. Welding work station should meet certain requirements,
including:
• adequate lighting system,
• fixed or movable protection screens, governing bystanders against radiation effects
(depending on requirements),
• placed in a room with appropriate wall colour (absorption of UV radiation)
FIRE PROTECTION
Welding work station should be located at a safe distance from flammable materials placed
especially on the floor or walls. All flammable materials need fire protection against hot metal
drops. It is recommended to fit the work station with fire blankets and fire extinguishers.
PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK
It is unacceptable to connect the device to an improper installation or to an installation with
unverified zeroing efficiency. It is prohibited to use of device with shields removed or remove
the external shields while the device is connected to electric network. It is not allowed to work
on a suspended device (e.g. using a crane or a gantry). Only authorized persons should per
-
form maintenance and repair works keeping it in compliance with the safety conditions applica-
ble to renovation equipment.
- the device needs to be located in a place with free clean air circulation (to and from the fan
without obstacles). When connected to electrical network the device must not be covered (with,
for example, paper or cloth)
- minimize the amount of dirt and dust that could get inside the device,
- device has an IP23S protection rating for housing and may be
- do not use the device for welding tanks previously used for flammable substances storing.
