4.1.2 A SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT
Danger due to dust formation!
Severe or fatal injuries due to explosion danger or inhalation, swallowing or contact with
the skin or eyes.
The floor in the working area must be electrostatically conductive (measurements
according to EN 1081 and EN 61340-4-1).
In the spray booth, coating may only be performed with correctly designed and
locked technical ventilation.
Make sure that the ground connection and potential equalization of all system parts
are reliable and continuous and can withstand the expected stress (e.g., mechanical
stress, corrosion).
Ensure that personal protective equipment (see chapter 4.2.1) is available and is used.
Make sure that all people within the work area wear static dissipative shoes.
Footwear must comply with EN 20344. The measured insulation resistance must not
exceed 100 MΩ.
Protective clothing, including gloves, must comply with EN 1149-5. The measured
insulation resistance must not exceed 100 MΩ.
Ensure that there are no ignition sources such as naked flames, sparks, glowing wires,
or hot surfaces in the vicinity. Do not smoke.
A suitable system for suppressing fire and explosion must be installed.
The powder release must be electrically interlocked with the connected technical
ventilation of the spray system.
Excess coating product (overspray) must be collected up safely.
Accumulations of powder in the spray booth are to be avoided. Set the parameters
of the floor cleaning and manually clean the spray booth as needed.
The operating company must ensure that an average concentration of powder
lacquer in the air does not exceed 50% of the lower explosion limit (LEL = max.
permitted concentration of powder to air). If no reliable LEL value is available, the
average concentration must not exceed 20 g/m³.
Ensure that maintenance and safety checks are performed regularly.
In case of defects, immediately shut down and repair the device or system before
switching it back on. Accumulations of powder are to be removed before switching
the system back on.
4.1.3 PERSONNEL QUALIFICATIONS
