Question:

What is the need for personal protective equipment?

Our factory is shipbuilding, I am mainly responsible for ship welding, want to know the welding work, individuals need to wear what protective equipment? Is there a recommended brand?

Answer:

Welding process, the more common hazards are: arc radiation, toxic gases and soot, high temperature burns, strong noise and so on. Analysis of harmful factors, the following one by one listed welding needs personal protective equipment: ? 1. Eye protection: mainly arc radiation (welding radiation mainly ultraviolet, infrared and visible light) protection. Protective products are, welding protective goggles (3M welding protective goggles, Honeywell anti-fog welding goggles), automatic variable light welding masks (3M welding masks, Dela welding masks) ? 2. Respiratory protection: mainly for toxic gases and dust protection. Toxic gases are mainly carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen fluoride, ozone, etc .; toxic fumes are iron oxide, manganese oxide, silica and fluoride, toxic manganese poisoning. Protective products are, welding masks (3M welding masks), gas masks (3M dust poison combination, Meisi'an gas masks), long tube respirator (Macey long tube respirator, 3M long tube respirator), electric Wind respirator (3M electric air breathing apparatus) and so on.
5. Hearing protection: the main welding noise generated by plasma cutting and plasma spraying. You can use anti-noise earplugs (3M with line earplugs, Honeywell earplugs), ear caps (3M headband ear, Meisian electronic earmuffs) and other protection. ? 6. Foot protection: welding process of Mars and other high-temperature particles damage. Protective products are, safety shoes (Barco safety shoes, Honeywell safety shoes, Deli low to help safety shoes). ? There are many pollution factors in the welding environment, in addition to the personal welding protective equipment, but also from the pollution sources, transmission channels to improve the overall management.
3. Hand protection: mainly for high temperature burns protection. It is recommended to wear welded gloves (Pakistan solid welding gloves, Delta welding gloves), high temperature gloves (Pakistan high temperature gloves) and so on. ? 4. Body protection: mainly high temperature burns and arc damage. Protective products are, welding protective clothing (Lakeland fire-retardant clothing, Dilta fire-retardant clothing), welding apron and so on.
