If maintenance or repair of the CaviBlaster
®
is being
conducted out of the water, remember that the unit
generates a high pressure water jet stream. Never
direct the jet stream at a person or animal. Never direct
the jet stream toward power lines or other high voltage
equipment.
Ensure that there is a safe area to work while operating
or maintaining the CaviBlaster
®
2040-ROV.
Seek immediate medical attention if the operator suffers
an injury as the result of contact with the high-pressure
water stream.
Serious personal injury can result from
an untreated water injection wound.
3.2 Personal Protective Equipment
Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
when performing maintenance or calibration on this equipment.
Personnel operating or working in the vicinity of the power unit should wear
appropriate hearing protection when operating the CaviBlaster
®
during
maintenance or calibration procedures.
Personnel performing maintenance or calibration procedures on the CaviBlaster
®
2040-ROV system should always wear neoprene or heavy rubber gloves to
provide protection to the hands and, in particular, to the nails. The gloves will
absorb most of the energy produced by bursting cavitation bubbles and prevent
the cavitation bubbles from contact
ing the operators’ hands. The gloves will also
protect operators’ hands from the initial shockwave when the lance is activated.
Failure to wear appropriate PPE may result in personal
injury.
