Considerations About Induction Heating And The Effects Of Low Fre- quency Electric And Magnetic Fields

The following is a quotation from the General Conclusions Section of the U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Biological Effects of Power Frequency Electric & Magnetic Fields − Background Paper, OTA- BP-E-53 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, May 1989): “. . . there is now a very large volume of scientific findings based on experiments at the cellular level and from studies with animals and people which clearly establish that low frequency magnetic fields can in- teract with, and produce changes in, biological systems. While most of this work is of very high quality, the results are complex. Current scientif- ic understanding does not yet allow us to interpret the evidence in a single coherent framework. Even more frustrating, it does not yet allow

us to draw definite conclusions about questions of possible risk or to of- fer clear science-based advice on strategies to minimize or avoid potential risks.”

To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following proce- dures:

1.Arrange output cable to one side and away from the operator.

2.Do not coil or drape output cable around the body.

3.Keep power source and cable as far away from the operator as practical.

About Pacemakers:

Pacemaker wearers consult your doctor before welding or going near welding or induction heating operations. If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recommended.
