SAFETY

RULES

FOR

OPERATION

OF

ARC

WELDING

POWER

SOURCE

1-1.

INTRODUCTION

We

learn

by

experience.

Learning

safety

through

per

sonal

experience,

like

a

child

touching

a

hot

stove

is

harmful,

wasteful,

and

unwise.

Let

the

experience

of

others

teach

you.

Safe

practices

developed

from

experience

in

the

use

of

welding

and

cutting

are

described

in

this

manual.

Re

search,

development,

and

field

experience

have

evolved

reliable

equipment

and

safe

installation,

opera

tion,

and

servicing

practices.

Accidents

occur

when

equipment

is

improperly

used

or

maintained.

The

rea

son

for

the

safe

practices

may

not

always

be

given.

Some

are

based

on

common

sense,

others

may

require

technical

volumes

to

explain.

It

is

wiser

to

follow

the

rules.

Read

and

understand

these

safe

practices

before

at

tempting

to

install,

operate,

or

service

the

equipment.

Comply

with

these

procedures

as

applicable

to

the

par

ticular

equipment

used

and

their

instruction

manuals,

for

personal

safety

and

for

the

safety

of

others.

Failure

to

observe

these

safe

practices

may

cause

seri

ous

injury

or

death.

When

safety

becomes

a

habit,

the

equipment

can

be

used

with

confidence.

These

safe

practices

are

divided

into

two

Sections:

C. Fire

and

Explosion

Prevention

Causes

of

fire

and

explosion

are:

combustibles

reached

by

the

arc,

flame,

flying

sparks,

hot

slag

or

heated

mate

rial;

misuse

of

compressed

gases

and

cylinders;

and

short

circuits.

BE

AWARE

THAT

flying

sparks

or

falling

slag

can

pass

through

cracks,

along

pipes,

through

windows

or

doors,

and

through

wall

or

floor

openings,

out

of

sight

of

the

goggled

operator.

Sparks

and

slag

can

fly

35

feet.

To

prevent

fires

and

explosion:

Keep

equipment

clean

and

operable,

free

of

oil,

grease,

and

(in

electrical

parts)

of

metallic

particles

that

can

cause

short

circuits.

If

combustibles

are

in

area,

do

NOT

weld

or

cut.

Move

the

work

if

practicable,

to

an

area

free

of

combustibles.

Avoid

paint

spray

rooms,

dip

tanks,

storage

areas,

venti

lators.

If

the

work

cannot

be

moved,

move

combustibles

at

least

35

feet

away

out

of

reach

of

sparks

and

heat;

or

protect

against

ignition

with

suitable

and

snug-fitting,

fire-resistant

covers

or

a.

appreciable

combustibles

(including

building

construction)

are

within

35

feet

b.

appreciable

combustibles

are

further

is

free

of

sparks,

glowing

embers,

and

flames.

An

empty

container

that

held

combustibles,

or

that

can

produce

flammable

or

toxic

vapors

when

heated,

must

never

be

welded

in

Standards

Index.

This

includes:

a

thorough

steam

or

caustic

cleaning

(or

a

solvent

or

water

washing,

depending

on

the

combusti

bles

solubility)

followed

by

purging

and

inerting

with

ni

trogen

or

carbon

dioxide,

and

using

protective

equip

ment

as

recommended

in

A6.O.

Waterfilling

just

below

working

level

may

substitute

for

inerting.

A

container

with

unknown

contents

should

be

cleaned

(see

preceding

paragraph).

Do

NOT

depend

on

sense

of

smell

or

sight

to

determine

if

it

is

safe

to

weld

or

cut.

Hollow

castings

or

containers

must

be

vented

before

welding

or

cutting.

They

can

explode.

Explosive

atmospheres.
