Thermal radiation or other phenomena such as
ejection of molten particles, and chemical effects from
short-circuits, overloads; etc.
External influences on electrical equipment
Inherently safe machinery design
and construction:
Refer to Refer to EN 60204-1:1997
and EN1870-1:1999
Thermal hazards resulting in :
Burns an scalds, by a possible contact of persons, by
flames or explosions and also by the radiation of heat
sources
Health-damaging effects by hot or cold work
environment
Hazards generated by noise, resulting in :
Hearing losses (deafness).other physiological
disorders (e.g. loss of balance, loss of awareness)
Inform users of the residual risks:
The warning label “The operator must
wear ear protection device during the
operation” is found on the machinery
and manual
Interferences with speech communication, acoustic
signals, etc.
Hazards generated by vibration, (resulting in a variety
of neurological and vascular disorders)
Hazards generated by radiation, especially by :
ionizing radiation sources
Machines marking use of high frequency
electromagnetic fields
Hazards generated by materials and substances
processed, used or exhausted by machinery for
example:
Hazards resulting form contact with or inhalation of
harmful fluids, gases, mists, fumes and dusts
Inherently safe machinery design
and construction:
An extraction outlet on the guard and
other below the table can ensure that
the chips and dust extracted from the
point of origin are conveyed to the
collection system
Inherently safe machinery design
and construction:
Overload protection device is
provided.
Biological and microbiological (viral or bacterial)
hazards
Hazards generated by neglecting ergonomic principles
in machine design, mismatch of machinery with human
characteristics and abilities caused for example by:
