1.02 Important Safety Precautions
WARNINGS
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OFPLASMA ARC EQUIPMENT CAN BE DAN-GEROUS AND HAZARDOUS TO YOURHEALTH.
Plasma arc cutting produces intense electric andmagnetic emissions that may interfere with theproper function of cardiac pacemakers, hearing aids,or other electronic health equipment. Persons whowork near plasma arc cutting applications shouldconsult their medical health professional and themanufacturer of the health equipment to determinewhether a hazard exists.
To prevent possible injury, read, understand andfollow all warnings, safety precautions and instruc-tions before using the equipment. Call 1-603-298-5711 or your local distributor if you have any ques-tions.
GASES AND FUMES
Gases and fumes produced during the plasma cuttingprocess can be dangerous and hazardous to your health.
• Keep all fumes and gases from the breathing area.Keep your head out of the welding fume plume.
• Use an air-supplied respirator if ventilation is notadequate to remove all fumes and gases.
• The kinds of fumes and gases from the plasma arcdepend on the kind of metal being used, coatingson the metal, and the different processes. You mustbe very careful when cutting or welding any met-als which may contain one or more of the follow-ing:
Antimony Chromium MercuryArsenic Cobalt NickelBarium Copper SeleniumBeryllium Lead SilverCadmium Manganese Vanadium
• Always read the Material Safety Data Sheets(MSDS) that should be supplied with the materialyou are using. These MSDSs will give you the in-formation regarding the kind and amount of fumesand gases that may be dangerous to your health.
• For information on how to test for fumes and gasesin your workplace, refer to item 1 in Subsection 1.03,Publications in this manual.
• Use special equipment, such as water or down draftcutting tables, to capture fumes and gases.
• Do not use the plasma torch in an area where com-bustible or explosive gases or materials are located.
• Phosgene, a toxic gas, is generated from the vaporsof chlorinated solvents and cleansers. Remove allsources of these vapors.
• This product, when used for welding or cutting, pro-duces fumes or gases which contain chemicalsknown to the State of California to cause birth de-fects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health& Safety Code Sec. 25249.5 et seq.)
ELECTRIC SHOCK
Electric Shock can injure or kill. The plasma arc processuses and produces high voltage electrical energy. Thiselectric energy can cause severe or fatal shock to the op-erator or others in the workplace.
• Never touch any parts that are electrically “live” or“hot.”
GENERAL INFORMATION 1-2 May 14, 2002
• Wear dry gloves and clothing. Insulate yourselffrom the work piece or other parts of the weldingcircuit.
• Repair or replace all worn or damaged parts.
• Extra care must be taken when the workplace ismoist or damp.
• Install and maintain equipment according to NECcode, refer to item 9 in Subsection 1.03, Publications.
• Disconnect power source before performing any ser-vice or repairs.
• Read and follow all the instructions in the Operat-ing Manual.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION
Fire and explosion can be caused by hot slag, sparks, orthe plasma arc.
• Be sure there is no combustible or flammable mate-rial in the workplace. Any material that cannot beremoved must be protected.
• Ventilate all flammable or explosive vapors fromthe workplace.
• Do not cut or weld on containers that may have heldcombustibles.
• Provide a fire watch when working in an area wherefire hazards may exist.
• Hydrogen gas may be formed and trapped underaluminum workpieces when they are cut underwa-ter or while using a water table. DO NOT cut alu-minum alloys underwater or on a water table un-less the hydrogen gas can be eliminated ordissipated. Trapped hydrogen gas that is ignitedwill cause an explosion.
NOISE
Noise can cause permanent hearing loss. Plasma arc pro-cesses can cause noise levels to exceed safe limits. Youmust protect your ears from loud noise to prevent per-manent loss of hearing.
• To protect your hearing from loud noise, wear pro-tective ear plugs and/or ear muffs. Protect othersin the workplace.
• Noise levels should be measured to be sure the deci-bels (sound) do not exceed safe levels.
• For information on how to test for noise, see item 1in Subsection 1.03, Publications, in this manual.
PLASMA ARC RAYS
Plasma Arc Rays can injure your eyes and burn your skin.The plasma arc process produces very bright ultra violetand infra red light. These arc rays will damage your eyesand burn your skin if you are not properly protected.
• To protect your eyes, always wear a welding hel-met or shield. Also always wear safety glasses withside shields, goggles or other protective eye wear.
• Wear welding gloves and suitable clothing to pro-tect your skin from the arc rays and sparks.
• Keep helmet and safety glasses in good condition.Replace lenses when cracked, chipped or dirty.
• Protect others in the work area from the arc rays.Use protective booths, screens or shields.
• Use the shade of lens as suggested in the followingper ANSI/ASC Z49.1:
Minimum Protective SuggestedArc Current Shade No. Shade No.
Less Than 300* 8 9
300 - 400* 9 12
400 - 800* 10 14
* These values apply where the actual arc is clearlyseen. Experience has shown that lighter filters maybe used when the arc is hidden by the workpiece.
