All personnel shall be equipped with appropriate PPE (personal protective equipment)
such as clothing, footwear, hard-hats, gloves, ear protection, eye protection, and safety
harness.
All personnel involved in any stage of the process shall have been trained for the
tasks in which they will be involved and at all times shall be under the direct supervision of
experienced supervisors and managers.
All personnel shall be equipped with appropriate tools and equipment to safely and
efficiently complete their task.
Adequate lighting shall be supplied at all times while work is being conducted.
A work perimeter shall be set up to define the limits of the area within which the work
will be conducted and outside which there will be no threat to the safety of personnel or
plant. The perimeter shall be taped-off and marked appropriately to prevent accidental
ingress of uninvolved personnel or equipment. When the work area impedes into existing
access ways or traffic routes for which no practical alternative is available, barriers, wardens
and flaggers shall be employed to safely control crossing traffic and personnel.
At any time only those personnel directly involved in completing the task at hand
shall be allowed within the work perimeter.
2.3 Dust explosions
Dust explosions constitute a serious industrial hazard and may result in death, serious
injury, and/or devastating property damage. It is the responsibility of the user to identify
the nature of the dust and whether or not it poses an explosive hazard and to properly
mitigate this hazard. Except as otherwise expressly provided in writing, AAF makes no
representation or warranty in connection with explosion hazard equipment, including, but
not limited to, the necessity or effectiveness of explosion hazard equipment or to the design,
installation, operation, and performance of such equipment. The basic standard for dealing
with explosive dust applications is the National Fire Protection Agency (“NFPA”), NFPA 69:
Standard on Explosion Prevention Systems. This standard applies to the design, installation,
operation, maintenance, and testing of systems for the prevention of explosions by means
of various methods. The user shall be fully conversant with the provisions of NFPA and shall
comply in full with all of its requirements.
By its very nature AAF equipment is intended to be used to capture airborne
particulate matter, otherwise known as dust. There are various methods for dealing with a
dust explosion in a dust collector. These can include, but are not limited to, the use of
properly designed explosion vents, explosion suppression systems, or flameless vents. The
