1.3 Warning notes for operating resistance welder

Caution!
When operating resistance welding devices the accident prevention regulation
BGV B11 (electromagnetic fields) and the BG-regulations BGR B11 have to be fol-
lowed. The power supply unit and supply lines of welding gun and spot welding tongs
generate a strong electromagnetic field during operation. Electromagnetic fields may
cause irritations of sense organs, nerves- and muscle cells as well as mal functions of
body supporting devices (deaf aid, pacemaker etc.) and of electronic devices and data
memories.
Cable pliers:
At a distance of 15 cm perpendicular to the frame enclosed by the electrodes the expo-
sure limit values of the EU-Directive 2004/40/EG and the identical basic values corre-
sponding to the accident prevention regulation BGV B11 will most probably be adhered
to. At the welding cable of spot welding tongs the exposure limit values of the EU-
Directive 2004/40/EG and the identical basic values of the accident prevention regula-
tion BGV B11 will be already adhered to at distances from 7 cm for sure.
Further notes for operating with magnetic fields:

Magnetic fields occur during the welding process only (time of current flow).

The head must not be in the vicinity of the frame enclosed by the electrodes or the
electrodes themselve during the welding process.

The welding cables must not be guided along or in the vicinity of head and spines.
