What are the safety measures of air compressor

air is compressible, and the air compressor does mechanical work to reduce its volume and increase its pressure is called compressed air. Compressed air is an important power source. However, if compressed air is used improperly, it will cause certain safety accidents. This paper mainly puts forward some preventive measures for the hidden dangers of the compressor in use.

Safety of air compressor

air is compressible, and the air compressor does mechanical work to reduce its volume and increase its pressure is called compressed air. Compressed air is an important power source. The compressed air pressure used by compressed air tools in the workplace is about 0.6 to 0.8Mpa, which is equivalent to 3 to 4 times the pressure of a fully inflated car tire.

It must be remembered that using compressed air to clean objects, machines, workbenches, clothes and other things is dangerous. Strong airflow or fine particles in compressed air can cause personal injury.

Hidden dangers of 1. compressed air

1. Compressed air relies on its pressure to wash away small particles of dust, but these dust may rush into people's eyes or scratch the skin. The extent of possible damage depends on the size, weight, shape, composition and speed of the blown particles. There have been reports of hearing damage caused by high decibel sounds in compressed air and airflow.

2. Compressed air can enter the bloodstream through skin wounds or open body tissues at the end of the day. In medicine, air bubbles in the bloodstream, like blood clots, form dangerous blood flow blockage.

3. Blowing dust and impurities into the air can also cause air pollution and respiratory system damage.

2. compressed air safety accident prevention measures

1. Before use, check whether the hose and the joint are correctly connected, check the air pipe frequently, repair or replace the damage immediately, do not use the method of kinking the air pipe to cut off the air, and be sure to know where the air valve in the workplace is.

2. Do not place the hose in a place that may cause tripping injury. If you want to cross the channel, hang the trachea at a high place or make sure it has safety measures.

3. Air compressor system parts should be checked regularly.

4. Do not use the trachea to face people, and pay attention to the people around you at any time not to be under high-pressure airflow.

5. wear appropriate protective equipment, frequent use of compressed air, good to wear protective glasses.
