Safety
Low Temperatures
Spontaneous Ignition and Explosion
Risk of Slippage
WARNING
Risk of injury due to low temperatures of liquids and metal parts.
Physical contact with extremely cold liquids and metal parts may cause serious
injuries. Contact with the skin may cause cold burns. Contact with the eyes may
cause blindness.
Thus:
• Always wear protective goggles, protective gloves and protective clothes while
handling with liquid cryogenic agents or metal parts in contact with liquid
cryogenic agents.
• Protect temperature sensitive components such as O-rings from contact with
liquid cryogenic agents.
WARNING
Risk of injury from spontaneous ignition and explosion caused by
liquid oxygen.
Pure oxygen condenses on extremely cold metal pieces. Together with oil it may
ignite spontaneously. In case of fire the pure oxygen may cause an explosion.
Thus:
• Do not smoke near the magnet system.
• Do not use open flames near the magnet system.
• Keep the environment around the magnet system clean.
• Do not leave oily rags near the magnet system.
WARNING
Risk of injury from slippage.
The accumulation of condensed water on the floor and ladders causes slippery
surfaces.
Thus:
• Always wear safety shoes with an anti-slip sole.
• Be careful using ladders.
• Clean floor and ladders regularly.
