SAFETY

SEGURIDADSÉCURITÉ

CYLINDER may explode if damaged.

7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders containing the correct shielding gas for the process used and properly operat- ing regulators designed for the gas and pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for the application and maintained in good condition.

7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely chained to an undercarriage or fixed support.

7.c. Cylinders should be located:

Away from areas where they may be struck or sub- jected to physical damage.

A safe distance from arc welding or cutting opera- tions and any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.

7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.

7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet when opening the cylinder valve.

7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand tight except when the cylinder is in use or con- nected for use.

7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publica- tion P-l, “Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in Cylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

La BOTELLA de gas puede explotar si está dañada.

7.a. Emplear únicamente botellas que contengan el gas de protección adecuado para el proceso utilizado, y reguladores

en buenas condiciones de funcionamiento diseñados para el tipo de gas y la presión utilizados. Todas las mangueras, rácores, etc. deben ser adecuados para la aplicación y estar en buenas condiciones.

7.b. Mantener siempre las botellas en posición vertical sujetas firmemente con una cadena a la parte inferior del carro o a un soporte fijo.

7.c. Las botellas de gas deben estar ubicadas:

Lejos de las áreas donde puedan ser golpeados o estén sujetos a daño físico.

A una distancia segura de las operaciones de corte o soldadura por arco y de cualquier fuente de calor, chispas o llamas.

7.d. Nunca permitir que el electrodo, portaelectrodo o cualquier otra pieza con tensión toque la botella de gas.

7.e. Mantener la cabeza y la cara lejos de la salida de la válvula de la botella de gas cuando se abra.

7.f. Los capuchones de protección de la válvula siempre deben estar colocados y apretados a mano, excepto cuando la botella está en uso o conectada para uso.

7.g. Leer y seguir las instrucciones de manipulación en las botellas de gas y el equipamiento asociado, y la publicación P-I de CGA, “Precauciones para un Manejo Seguro de los Gases Comprimidos en los Cilindros“, publicado por Compressed Gas Association 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

LES BOUTEILLES peuvent exploser si elles sont endommagées.

7.a. N'utiliser que des bouteilles de gaz com- primé contenant le gaz de protection con- venant pour le procédé utilisé ainsi que des détendeurs en bon état conçus pour les gaz et la pression utilisés. Choisir les tuyaux souples, raccords, etc. en fonction de l'application et les tenir en bon état.

7.b. Toujours tenir les bouteilles droites, bien fixées par une chaîne à un chariot ou à support fixe.

7.c. On doit placer les bouteilles :

Loin des endroits où elles peuvent être frappées ou endommagées.

À une distance de sécurité des opérations de soudage à l'arc ou de coupage et de toute autre source de chaleur, d'étincelles ou de flammes.

7.d. Ne jamais laisser l'électrode, le porte-électrode ou toute autre pièce sous tension toucher une bouteille.

7.e. Éloigner la tête et le visage de la sortie du robinet de la bouteille quand on l'ouvre.

7.f. Les bouchons de protection des robinets doivent toujours être en place et serrés à la main sauf quand la bouteille est utilisée ou raccordée en vue de son utilisation.

7.g. Lire et suivre les instructions sur les bouteilles de gaz comprimé, et le matériel associé, ainsi que la publication P-1 de la CGA que l'on peut se procurer auprès de la Compressed Gas Association, 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA22202.
