  22. Health & Safety FIRE

  23. Health & Safety The Fire Triangle Fire Safety, at its most basic, is based upon the principle of keeping fuel sources and ignition sources separate.

  24. Health & Safety Fuel Classifications Class A: Wood, paper, cloth, trash, plastics—solids that are not metals. Class B: Flammable liquids—gasoline, oil, grease, acetone. Includes flammable gases. Class C: Electrical—energized electrical equipment. As long as it’s “plugged in.” Class D: Metals—potassium, sodium, aluminum, magnesium. Requires Metal-X, foam, and other special extinguishing agents.

  25. Health & Safety Fuel Classifications Most fire extinguishers will have a pictograph label telling you which types of fire the extinguisher is designed to fight. For example, a simple water extinguisher might have a label like this… …which means it should only be used on Class A fires.

  26. Health & Safety How to Use a Fire Extinguisher It’s easy to remember how to use a fire extinguisher if you remember the acronym PASS: • Pull • Aim • Squeeze • Sweep

  27. Health & Safety How to Use a Fire Extinguisher Pull the pin… This will allow you to discharge the extinguisher

  28. Health & Safety How to Use a Fire Extinguisher Aim at the base of the fire… Hit the fuel! If you aim at the flames... … the extinguishing agent will fly right through and do no good.

  29. Health & Safety How to Use a Fire Extinguisher Squeeze the top handle… This depresses a button that releases the pressurized extinguishing agent.

  30. Health & Safety How to Use a Fire Extinguisher Sweep from side to side… .. until the fire is completely out. Start using the extinguisher from a safe distance away, then slowly move forward. Once the fire is out, keep an eye on the area in case it re-ignites.

  31. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires Fires can be very dangerous and you should always be certain that you will not endanger yourself or others when attempting to put out a fire. For this reason, when a fire is discovered… • Assist any person in immediate danger to safety, if it can be accomplished without risk to yourself. • Call 911 or activate the building fire alarm. The fire alarm will notify the fire department and other building occupants and shut off the air handling system to prevent the spread of smoke. If the fire is small (and Only after having done these 2 things), you may attempt to use an extinguisher to put it out. However . . . .

  32. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires . . . before deciding to fight the fire, keep these things in mind: • Know what is burning. If you don’t know what’s burning, you won’t know what kind of extinguisher to use. • Even if you have an ABC fire extinguisher, there may be something in the fire that is going to explode or produce toxic fumes. Chances are you will know what’s burning, or at least have a pretty good idea, but if you don’t, let the fire department handle it.

  33. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires Do not fight the fire if: • You don’t have adequate or appropriate equipment. If you don’t have the correct type or large enough extinguisher, it is best not to try fighting the fire. • You might inhale toxic smoke. When synthetic materials such as the nylon in carpeting or foam padding in a sofa burn, they can produce hydrogen cyanide, acrolein, and ammonia in addition to carbon monoxide. These gases can be fatal in very small amounts. • Your instincts tell you not to. If you are uncomfortable with the situation for any reason, just let the fire department do their job.

  34. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires The final rule is to always position yourself with an exit or means of escape at your back before you attempt to use an extinguisher to put out a fire. In case the extinguisher malfunctions, or something unexpected happens, you need to be able to get out quickly. You don’t want to become trapped.

  35. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires • Remember to keep an exit to your back • Only fight a fire in the incipient stage

  36. Health & Safety Rules for Fighting Fires NEVER fight a fire if any of the following apply: • Don’t have the proper extinguisher or equipment • Fire has spread beyond its point of origin • Your instincts tell you GET OUT

  37. Health & Safety Fundamentals of Electrical Hazards • To flow electricity must have a complete path. • Electricity flows through conductors: water, metal, the human body • Insulators are non-conductors • The human body is a conductor.

  38. Health & Safety Do’s and Don'ts • Do plug power equipment into wall receptacles with power switches in the Off position. • Do unplug electrical equipment by grasping the plug and pulling. Do not pull or jerk the cord to unplug the equipment. • Do not drape power cords over hot pipes, radiators or sharp objects. • Do check the receptacle for missing or damaged parts. • Do not plug equipment into defective receptacles. • Do check for frayed, cracked, or exposed wiring on equipment cords.

  39. Health & Safety Do’s and Don'ts • Employees should know the location of electrical circuit breaker panels that control equipment and lighting in their respective areas. Circuits and equipment disconnects must be identified. • Temporary or permanent storage of any materials must not be allowed within 3 feet of any electrical panel or electrical equipment. • Any electrical equipment causing shocks or with high leakage potential must be tagged with a Danger tag or equivalent.

  40. Health & Safety Myths and Misconceptions • Electricity takes the path of least resistance. • Electricity wants to go to ground. • If an electric tools falls into a sink or tub of water, the item will short out. • AC reverse polarity is not hazardous. • It takes high voltage to kill; 120 volts is not dangerous. • Double insulated power tools are doubly safe and can be used in wet and damp locations.

  41. Health & Safety Fire Safety - On-the-Job • Do not block fire extinguishers with equipment • Do not block fire emergency exits and escape routes • Utilize those with electrical expertise/installations/assistance • Do not overload outlets - use a track plug • Practice good housekeeping techniques in the work area • Inspect wires for possible damage and replace as needed

  42. Health & Safety Evacuation Planning • Make sure that you know the escape routes . • know how to notify the fire department, and when to call for help. • Never open doors that are hot to the touch. • Remember to stop, drop to the ground and roll if their clothes catch fire. • Never re-enter a burning building • Your life is more precious than the diamonds ...

  43. Health & Safety Machine Guarding

  44. Health & Safety Machine Guarding Many fatalities have resulted from employees getting caught in rotating shafts such as well boring drills & lathes. Fixed guards: • A permanent part of the machine • Not dependent on any other part to perform the function • Usually made of sheet metal, screen, bars or other material which will withstand the anticipated impact • Generally considered the preferred type of guard. • Simple and durable

  45. Health & Safety Machine Guarding This shows a pulleysystem which hascorrectguards to keepfingersand tools awayfrompinch points.

  46. Health & Safety Machine Guarding • Robots can be deadly. • Establish a system to keep humans from getting into the robots work area. • Maintenance workers must use a lockout system.

  47.
