in order to guarantee safety at
work and which precautionary
measures should be taken during
the actual cutting procedure.
z
Total of open circuit
voltages
When more than one plasma
power source is operated at the
same time, their open circuit
voltages may add up and lead
to an increased electrical
hazard. The plasma power
sources must be clearly marked
with their individual control units
and connections, in order to be
able to identify which device
belongs to which circuit.
z
Using shoulder straps
The plasma cutter must not be
used if the device is being
carried e.g. with a shoulder
strap.
This is intended to prevent:
The risk of losing your balance
if the lines or hoses which are
connected are pulled.
The increased risk of an
electric shock as the operator
comes into contact with the
earth if he/she is using a
Class I plasma cutter, the
housing of which is earthed
through its conductor.
z
Protective clothing
At work, the operator must
protect his/her whole body
by using appropriate clothing
and face protection against
radiations and burns.
The following steps must be
observed:
– Wear protective clothing
prior to cutting work.
– Wear gloves.
– Open windows to guarantee
air supply.
– Wear protective goggles.
Gauntlet gloves made of a
suitable material (leather)
must be worn on both hands.
They must be in perfect
condition.
A suitable apron must be
worn to protect clothing from
flying sparks and burns.
When specific work, e.g.
overhead cutting, is required,
a protective suit must be worn
and, if necessary, even head
protection.
