7. OPERATION
The safety information from section 2 “Safety” must be observed.
DANGER!
Danger – strong magnetic field!
The exposure zone of the magnetic field poses a risk of injury and death
for persons with pacemakers, electronic medical device implants, active
implants or ferromagnetic foreign bodies.
■
Minimum distance 2 m!
■
Whether persons with pacemakers, active implants or ferromagnetic
foreign bodies can work on machines with magnet devices has to be
decided in each individual case and upon consultation with a physician.
Measurements may have to be carried out.
■
In any case, the hazard zone has to be limited in such a way that the
basic limit of 0.5 mT is not reached.
■
The applicable limits in the exposure zone of the magnetic field as per
BGV B11 (Regulation issued by the German Social Accident Insurance
Institutions), Annex 2, are not exceeded.
– Peak values for head or torso: 2.000 T
– Mean value for 8 h full-body exposure: 0.212 T
– Peak value for extremities: 5.000 T
– As the magnetic saturation for St 37 is 1.6 – 1.9 T and the magnetic
field is concentrated in the area near the pole surface, the limits stated
above are not exceeded in the range > 10 cm.
– According the Bavarian Environment Agency (LfU) and the German
Federal Occupational Health and Safety Regulation (EMFV) of
15/11/2016, constant magnetic fields < 2 T have no adverse effect on
health.
DANGER!
Danger – strong magnetic field!
Electronic devices such as computers or control units can be damaged if
they are located near the strong magnets. Failure of these devices can result
in other hazards.
■
If failure of these devices would create a hazard, these must be posi-
tioned outside of the exposure zone.
CAUTION!
Damage!
Electronic devices such as computers or control units can be damaged if
they are located near the strong magnets.
■
Position devices outside of the exposure zone.
