How to Protect Yourself from Welding Work

In the welding process, the common hazard factors are: arc radiation, toxic gas and smoke, high temperature scald, strong noise and so on. Analyze harmful factors and introduce welding protection products:

1. Eye and face protection: mainly protection from arc radiation (welding radiation mainly includes ultraviolet, infrared and visible light). Protective products include welding protective eye mask (e.g. 3M 10197 welding protective eye mask, honeywell 1008111 anti-fogging welding goggles) and automatic light changing welding mask (e.g. 3M Speedglas 9002D welding mask).

2. Respiratory protection: mainly for the protection of toxic gases and smoke. Toxic gases include carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen fluoride, ozone etc. Toxic dust has iron oxide, manganese oxide, silicon dioxide and fluoride, the number of strong toxicity of manganese poisoning. Protection products, welding masks (8515 welding mask, such as 3 m 3 m 8514 welding respirator), gas mask (3200 ChenDu combinations, such as 3 m 3 m 6200 ChenDu combination, v-gard gas mask), long tube respirator (such as dehsm long tube respirators, 3 m S series of long tube breathing apparatus), electric supply air breathing apparatus, such as 3 m Jupiter electric supply air breathing apparatus), etc.

3. Hand protection: mainly protection against hot burns. It is recommended to wear welding gloves (e.g., bagu 2012847 welding gloves, delta 205515 welding gloves) and heat resistant gloves (e.g., baru 2280673 heat resistant gloves).

4. Body protection: mainly heat burns and arc injuries. Protective products include welding protective clothing (such as regland Fyrban flame retardant clothing, delta 405336 flame retardant clothing), welding apron, etc.

5. Hearing protection: the noise generated by welding mainly includes plasma cutting and plasma spraying, etc. The earplug can be used for noise protection (such as 3M 1110 earplug, 3M 1270 earplug), earcover (3M H7A headband earplug, 3M H10A headband earplug), etc.

Foot protection: damage caused by high-temperature particulate matter such as Mars during welding. Protective products are safety shoes (BC0919701 safety shoes, honeywell SP2012201 safety shoes, delta 301102 safety shoes).

There are many pollution factors in the welding environment. In addition to the provision of personal welding protective equipment, it is also necessary to comprehensively improve the management of pollution sources and communication channels. Enterprises need to establish and improve management and monitoring mechanism based on their actual production demand and production characteristics, so as to truly protect the safety of operators.
