When the scanner is raised or spans open floor areas, fall protection needs to be
considered in accordance with local mill rules and regulations.
Table 1 lists and describes hazard zones.
Table. 1.
Hazard Type Warning
Work in this area has dangerous pinch points
associated with pulleys, belts and moving
carriage parts which can cause serious injury.
This area has the potential for body crush
between moving heads and end support.
Buffer stops are set at factory to provide 0.5 m
(19.7 in) safety clearance.
Work in this area has potential for impact from
moving heads. Pinning of worker between
heads and other close mill equipment is also a
concern.
Typically, work done at heights > 3 m (9.84 ft),
or above dangerous equipment require use of
a fall protection system. Use caution when
working on elevated scanners or spans over
open floor sections.
Figure 6 through to Figure 10 shows a variety of pinch point locations.
