1. Isolate From Main Supply

2. Remove Fuses

3. Lock Out

4. Test For Incoming Power

Only when absolutely necessary should any testing be

performed with the power on. Use extreme care !

Never work on a powered or running unit alone!

2 Electrical Safety Remove Fuses 

 As an extra safety measure,

remove fuses from the power supply to the compressor 

(and keep safely in your pocket).

Compressed Air Safety

2 Electrical Safety Lock Out…. 

Isolate the compressor’s power 

supply at the main board.

Cover and lock the isolation box

to prevent someone inadvertently

switching supply back on whilst

work is in progress or the unit is

unsafe to use.

It is advisable to use an Isolation Notice so people areaware that work is being carried out.

Compressed Air Safety

2 Electrical Safety 

Test for Incoming Power…. 

Double check that the main supply

terminals to the machine are not livebefore proceeding with any work.

You may be 100% sure that supply has

been isolated, but mistakes can occur 

from time to time. Get into the habit of double checking that the machine is

safe to work on as high voltages can

kill. It’s not worth the risk !!!

4 Safe Working Practices…. 

1. Use Correct Tools 

2. Calibrated Equipment 

3. Lifting Equipment  

7/29/2019 Safety Module [CompAir] (1)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/safety-module-compair-1 27/66

Compressed Air Safety

Always use correct tools for the job 

Using incorrect tools can damagecomponents and make further 

maintenance difficult and costly.

e.g.

 Always use correctly sized spanners,

never use grips or adjustable spanners.

4 Safe Working Practices…. 

7/29/2019 Safety Module [CompAir] (1)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/safety-module-compair-1 28/66

Compressed Air Safety

Always use equipment that has beencorrectly tested and calibrated. 

Using un-calibrated equipment may

give false readings which could give

rise to inaccurate fault diagnoses.

4 Safe Working Practices…. 

7/29/2019 Safety Module [CompAir] (1)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/safety-module-compair-1 29/66

Compressed Air Safety

Where required always use suitablelifting equipment 

Make sure that:-Items being lifted are well secured

The lifting equipment and tackle is in

good order and capable of lifting the

item.

Nobody, including yourself, stands too

close or beneath items that are lifted.
