8-3. California Proposition 65 Warnings
Welding or cutting equipment produces fumes or gases which contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects and, in some cases, cancer. (California Health & Safety Code Section 25249.5 et seq.)
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
For Gasoline Engines:
Engine exhaust contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproduc- tive harm.
For Diesel Engines:
Diesel engine exhaust and some of its constituents are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.
Considerations About Induction Heating And The Effects Of Low Fre- quency Electric And Magnetic Fields
Induction heating current, as it flows through induction heating cables, will cause electromagnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17 years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National Research Council concluded that: “The body of evidence, in the committee’s judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to
To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following procedures:
1.Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them, or using a cable cover.
2.Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator.
3.Do not coil or drape cables around your body.
4.Keep induction heating power source and cables as far away from operator as practical.
5.Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as possible.
About Implanted Medical Devices:
Implanted Medical Device wearers should consult their doctor and the device manufacturer before performing or going near arc welding, spot welding, gouging, plasma arc cutting, or induction heating operations. If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recom- mended.
