Noise Emission Values; Danger From Toxic Gases And Vapours - Fronius TransPocket 4000 CEL Bedienungsanleitung

Keep all persons, especially children, out of the working area while any devices
are in operation or welding is in progress. If, however, there are people in the
vicinity:

Noise emission
The device generates a maximum sound power level of <80 dB(A) (ref. 1pW)
values when idling and in the cooling phase following operation at the maximum permis-
sible operating point under maximum rated load conditions according to EN
60974-1.
It is not possible to provide a workplace-related emission value during welding
(or cutting) as this is influenced by both the process and the environment. All
manner of different welding parameters come into play, including the welding
process (MIG/MAG, TIG welding), the type of power selected (DC or AC), the
power range, the type of weld metal, the resonance characteristics of the work-
piece, the workplace environment, etc.
Danger from to-
The fumes produced during welding contain harmful gases and vapours.
xic gases and va-
Welding fumes contain substances that cause cancer, as stated in Monograph
pours
118 of the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
Use at-source extraction and a room extraction system.
If necessary, use a welding torch with an integrated extraction device.
Keep your face away from welding fumes and gases.
Fumes and hazardous gases
-
-
Ensure an adequate supply of fresh air. Ensure that there is a ventilation rate of
at least 20 m³ per hour at all times.
Otherwise, a welding helmet with an air supply must be worn.
If there is any doubt about whether the extraction capacity is sufficient, the
measured toxic emission values should be compared with the permissible limit
values.
The following components are responsible, amongst other things, for the degree
of toxicity of welding fumes:
-
-
-
-
-
The relevant material safety data sheets and manufacturer's specifications for
the listed components should therefore be studied carefully.
Recommendations for trade fair scenarios, risk management measures and for
identifying working conditions can be found on the European Welding Associati-
on website under Health & Safety (https://european-welding.org).

Make them aware of all the dangers (risk of dazzling by the arc, injury from
flying sparks, harmful welding fumes, noise, possible risks from mains cur-
rent and welding current, etc.)
Provide suitable protective equipment
Alternatively, erect suitable safety screens/curtains.
