2.4 Personal Protection (continued)
WARNING the noise made by the arc spray gun is loud enough to cause the operator
discomfort and can cause hearing damage. Adequate protection should always be used.
The operator and other personnel close to the arc spray operation must be protected from
excessive noise. If possible, the spray operation should be isolated. Hearing protection
should be used. Do not rely on wads of cotton for hearing protection. They are
ineffective against high-intensity noise.
Noise level at any location depends on factors such as equipment operating parameters,
background noise, work area size, and wall, floor, and ceiling materials. To determine
the exact noise level, it is necessary to measure the sound level to determine the method
needed for adequate protection.
2.5 Eye Protection (Standard Welding Shields and Lens)
CAUTION
the hardened green (Shade 9) lens is within the shade range recommended
for arc spraying. However, the choice of lens shade may be based on visual sensitivity
and sharpness (acuity) and may vary widely from one individual to another. Check with
your Government Health Agency for current and complete shade number
recommendations.
Always wear proper eye protection when operating or watching the arc spray operation.
Inspect the lens and cover plates frequently. Lenses and cover plates that are scratched,
pitted, or damaged can impair vision and seriously reduce protection.
2.6 Environment
DANGER The Thermal Spraying operation can produce materials that are hazardous
for plants, animals, fish, or water quality. Precautions must be taken to prevent any
danger to the environment. Collect all residues from the metal spray operation and
dispose of as hazardous material or determine that it is safe to the environment prior to
disposal.
