6. Personal protection
The operator must be dressed and protected in a
manner appropriate for the work being performed.
Precautions must be taken that no part of the body of
the operator or an assistant can come into contact with
workpieces or metal parts which might carry voltage
from the electrical system.
The operator must always wear individual insulating
protection.
The protective equipment worn by the operator and his
assistants (gloves, aprons, and safety shoes) must
provide additional protection against burns from hot
workpieces, spatter, and slag.
Protective equipment must be in good condition,
checked regularly, and replaced when worn or when no
longer serviceable.
7. The face and eyes
Every precaution must be taken to protect:
• The eyes against blinding glare from the welding arc.
(This includes visible light as well as infrared and
ultraviolet radiation).
• The hair and face against spatter and sparks.
The welding mask, whether or not it forms part of the
helmet, should always be fitted with a protective lens,
the DIN rating of which will depend on the intensity of
the welding arc current. See information:
"GUIDELINES FOR CHOOSING WELDING FILTERS
(conforming to EN 169 specifications)".
The colored filter may be protected from impact and
spatter by means of a transparent glass shield in front
of the mask.
When replacing the protective filter (tinted glass), care
must be taken to maintain the proper DIN rating (No of
opacity gradation).
Those in the vicinity of the operator, especially
assistants, must be protected by suitable screens or
protective goggles that block UV light, and if required,
by a mask equipped with a suitable protective filter.
1. Depending on the conditions of use, the next highest
or lowest category DIN number may be used.
2. The expression "heavy metals" covers steels,
alloyed steels, copper, and its alloys.
Note: The shaded areas represent applications
where the welding processes are not normally used
at present.
