What is the harm of red and ultraviolet rays generated during welding?

What are the hazards of red and ultraviolet rays generated during the welding process? Wenzhou Schindler Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. specializes in the production of automatic dimming welding masks (welding masks, welding masks, welding caps).

According to the size of the welding current, the appropriate mask goggles filter should be selected in due course, and other personnel cooperating with the welder should wear colored protective glasses during welding. Canvas overalls must be worn for welding operations to prevent arc burns to the skin. It is forbidden to directly observe arc light without welding mask or colored glasses. Reduce skin exposure as much as possible. It is forbidden to wear shorts and short jacket for welding in summer. If conditions permit, ultraviolet protective cream can be applied to exposed skin.

2. Anti-electric shock measures

(1) Improve the insulation performance of welding equipment and lines. The welding equipment and power cables used must be qualified products, and their electrical insulation performance must match the voltage level, surrounding environment and operating conditions used.

(2) The shell of the welding equipment must be zero or grounded, and should be checked frequently to ensure its reliability. When the welding machine is installed with the power supply, the leakage protector is installed to ensure that the power will be cut off automatically once the person gets an electric shock. The wiring, fault repair and inspection of welding equipment shall be carried out by electricians, and welders shall not disassemble and repair by themselves.

(3) When the welding machine fails to repair, move the work place, change the joint or replace the safety device, the power supply must be cut off before operation. In case of sudden power failure during welding, the power supply should be cut off immediately.

(4) Strengthen the education of electricity safety knowledge and self-protection awareness of operators, and require welders to wear insulating shoes and special insulating gloves during operation, and avoid body contact with weldments. It is forbidden to weld in the open air on rainy days, and to weld in particularly humid places. People must stand on dry boards or rubber insulating sheets.
