Safety Instructions

Section

Every year accidents in the work place maim, kill and injure people. Although it may

be impossible to prevent all accidents, with the right combination of training, operating

practices, safety devices, and operator vigilance, the number of accidents can be

significantly reduced. The purpose of this section is to educate equipment users

about hazards, unsafe practices, and recommended hazard avoidance techniques.

SAFETY WORDS AND SYMBOLS

It is very important that operators and maintenance personnel understand the words

and symbols that are used to communicate safety information. Safety words, their

meaning and format, have been standardized for U.S. manufacturers and published by

the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The European Community (E.C.)

has adopted a different format based on the International Standards Organization

(I.S.O.) and applicable machinery directives. Both formats are presented below.

Graphic symbols are not standardized, but most manufacturers will use some variation

of the ones seen in this manual.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not

avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

may result in minor or moderate injury and/or property damage.

Provides additional information that the operator needs to be

aware of to avoid a potentially hazardous situation.

Mandatory Lockout Power Symbol. Disconnect, lockout and

tagout electrical and other energy sources before inspecting,

cleaning or performing maintenance on this panel.

International Safety Alert Symbol. The exclamation point (!)

surrounded by a yellow triangle indicates that an injury hazard

exists. However, it does not indicate the seriousness of

potential injury. The exclamation point (!) is also used with the

DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION symbols so the potential

injury is indicated.

Electrocution Hazard Symbol. This symbol indicates that an

electrocution hazard exists. Serious injury or death could result

from contacting high voltage.

International Electrocution Hazard. This symbol indicates

that an electrocution hazard exists. Serious injury or death

could result from contacting high voltage.

Mandatory Read Manual Action Symbol. (I.S.O. format) This

symbol instructs personnel to read the Operators Manual before

servicing or operating the equipment.

Mandatory Read Manual Action Symbol. This symbol

instructs personnel to read the Operators Manual before

servicing or operating the equipment.

Notice is used to notify people of important installation,

operation or maintenance information which is not hazard

related.

LOCKOUT / TAGOUT PROCEDURES

Lockout/Tagout is the placement of a lock/tag on an energy isolating device in

accordance with an established procedure. When taking equipment out of service to

perform maintenance or repair work, always follow the lockout/tagout procedures as

outlined in ANSI Z344.1 and/or OSHA Standard 1910.147. This standard “requires

employers to establish a program and utilize procedures for affixing appropriate

lockout devices or tagout devices to energy isolating devices and to otherwise disable

machines or equipment to prevent unexpected energizing, start-up, or release of

stored energy in order to prevent injury to employees.”

CONTROLLED STOP

This is the stopping of machine motion by reducing the electrical command signal to

0 (zero) once the stop signal has been recognized.

HAZARD REVIEW

Electrocution Hazard

Electrocution accidents are most likely to occur during maintenance

of the electrical system or when working on or near exposed high

voltage wiring. This hazard does not exist when the electrical power

has been disconnected, properly locked, and tagged out.

Automatic Start Hazard

The Automated Pump Stand may be controlled by an automated

system and may start without warning. Failure to properly disconnect,

lockout, and tagout all energy sources of remotely controlled

equipment creates a very hazardous situation and could cause

injury or even death. PLEASE STAY CLEAR AND BE ALERT.
