Personal protection - protection of hands and feet

Hand as a carrier tool for personnel work is directly related to the effectiveness of operations and the safety of the human body.

One, hands and feet vulnerable to injury

1, mechanical damage.

2, stabbed.

3, burn, burns.

4, frostbite.

5, chemical damage.

6, electric shock injury.

7, vibration damage and so on.

Second, the role of protective gloves

New fire gloves

Prevent fire and high temperature, low temperature damage.

Prevent electromagnetic and ionizing radiation damage.

Prevent electricity and chemical damage.

Prevents impact, cutting, abrasions, microbes and infections.

The protective tools of the hand are mainly gloves. Different protective gloves may be used according to different working environments and types of work.

Cotton gloves: used for general job protection.

Leather gloves: Used for protection of general operations and welding operations.

Rubber gloves: It is resistant, oil-resistant, solvent-resistant, and electrical work.

Special gloves: shockproof, heat-resistant, cut-proof, cold-proof and other special operations

Wear gloves precautions :

Insulating gloves should be regularly tested for electrical insulation performance and cannot be used if they do not meet the regulations.

Rubber, plastic and other protective gloves should be washed clean, dry, avoid high temperatures when stored, and sprinkle talcum powder on the products to prevent adhesion.

Operate the rotary machine to prohibit wearing gloves.

Third, the foot of protective equipment

Insulation shoes: Suitable for auxiliary safety equipment and labor protection products when working on AC 50 Hz , 1000V and below or DC 1500V and below power equipment.

Steel baotou shoes: Can withstand the impact of falling objects and items to protect the toes.

Anti-puncture shoes: used to prevent the bottom of the rubber from being punctured.

Acid and alkali resistant shoes: used for acid and alkali pollution.

High-temperature protective shoes: used to prevent foot burns or burns.

Anti-static and conductive shoes: used to prevent burning and explosion caused by static electricity

The role of protective shoes :

Prevent object bruises or cut damage. Such as falling objects and nails, sharp objects scattered on the ground at high places, it may cause bruises or stab wounds.

Prevent high and low temperature damage. In the metallurgical and other industries, not only high ambient temperatures, but also strong radiant heat, burning foot, burning material splashed into the foot or fall into the shoes cause burns. On the other hand, frostbite may occur during winter construction work outdoors.

Insulation shoes (boots) and precautions :

The insulation shoes shall be correctly selected according to the voltage level of the workplace. Low-voltage insulation shoes shall not be used as safety aids on high-voltage electrical equipment. High-voltage insulation shoes (boots) may be used as auxiliary safety devices on high-voltage and low-voltage electrical equipment. However, no matter if you wear low-voltage or high-voltage insulated shoes (boots), do not touch the electrical equipment with your hands.

Cloth insulated shoes can only be used in a dry environment to avoid moisture on the fabric.

When wearing insulated boots, the trousers should be slipped into the boot. When wearing insulating shoes, the length of the trousers should not be long and the height of the outer edge of the sole, but not the length and the ground, to keep the cloth dry.

Non-resistance to acid and alkali oils should not come into contact with acid-base oils and should prevent sharp objects from being stabbed. Low-voltage insulating shoes can't be used as insulating shoes if the bottom pattern is polished to expose the interior color.

In the purchase of insulating shoes (boots), should check whether there are permanent insulation marks on the shoes, such as the red lightning symbol, the end of the voltage of the shoe with a number of V, etc.; shoes have no certificate, safety appraisal, production license number and so on.

Use of acid-resistant shoes (boots) and precautions :

Acid and alkali shoes can only be used in the general concentration of low-acid workplaces, can not be immersed in acid and alkali for a longer period of time in order to prevent the acid and alkali solution from infiltrating into the leather shoes to cause corrosion damage.

Acid and alkali-resistant plastic boots and rubber boots should avoid contact with high temperature, damage to the boot or boots caused by leakage, affect protection.

After the acid and alkali-resistant plastic boots and rubber boots are worn, the acid-alkali liquid on the boots is washed with water and then dried to avoid direct sunlight, so as to prevent the plastic and rubber from aging and embrittling and affect the service life.

Anti-static shoes, conductive shoes Note :

In use, the insulated wool socks and insulated insole should not be worn at the same time.

The place where anti-static shoes are used should be an anti-static floor, and the place where conductive shoes are used should be a conductive floor.

Do not use anti-static shoes when using insulating shoes.

Anti-static shoes should be used with anti-static clothing.

During the wear process, the resistance test shall be carried out according to the regulations. Only when it is in compliance with the regulations can it be used.
