Danger of Thrown Loose Objects
There is a risk of dry ice pellets and small objects
beingdeectedbackduringblasting.
Thereforesmallobjectsmustbermlysecuredbe-
fore blasting. Loose objects must not be left in the
area where the cleaning process is taking place!!
The operator must always wear approved protective
goggles or a protective shield when working with
the dry ice blasting machine. This also applies to
anybody near the workspace.
Noise
Because of the high air velocities in the gun nozzle
during dry ice blasting, the level of noise in the area
where the operator works may exceed the maximum
permissible level. The owner is responsible for keeping
himself acquainted with, and informing the operator of
any precautions to be taken as to the application of ear
protection, since legislation on maximum permissible
noise levels varies from one country to another.
Static Electricity
Serious discharge of static electricity can occur.
Always make sure that objects to be cleaned are
adequately earthed/grounded and that this ear-
thing/grounding remains stable throughout the
whole cleaning process.
The dry ice blasting machine is earthed/grounded,
from machine cabinet to blasting gun, and through
the main electricity connection on the rear side of
the machine – provided that the machine has been
set up and connected as described under STARTING
THE DRY ICE BLASTING MACHINE page 10.
PACEMAKER Precautions
Do NOT use the dry ice blasting machine, if you are
wearing a pacemaker. The dry ice blasting machine
may cause pacemaker malfunction.
Explosive Hazard
The machine must never be used in surroun-
dings where there is a danger of explosion.
Despite optimum earthing/grounding of both ma-
chine and cleaning object, static electricity can be
generated and create a spark.
Danger of Congelation
At atmospheric pressure, CO
2
in a solid form has
a temperature of -79°C/-110°F or lower and can
give rise to congelation when the dry ice comes in
contact with unprotected skin.
Important!
Therefore, always read the safety data sheet pro-
vided by the dry ice supplier, and follow the instruc-
tions given.
“ Dry ice pellets are non-toxic, non-abrasive
and free of moisture. Therefore, dry ice
blasting is applicable for a large number of
industries. ”
