Noise Levels

Generally in an industrial environment some background noise is present due to the
operation of electrical equipment and mechanical movements of machinery. In general
operation, Loma X-Ray Inspection Systems do not emit a level of noise that is hazardous.
However, if an air blast reject device is fitted, the noise emitted when it operates may
constitute a noise hazard.
Whilst short exposure to this noise will not normally cause permanent damage to hearing,
prolonged exposure may cause some damage. It is therefore recommended that ear
defenders are worn by personnel who are regularly exposed to the noise.

End of Life Treatment

In accordance with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment recycling (WEEE)
Regulations 2012/19/EU and CE Directive 2002/96/EC, electrical and electronic equipment
must be recycled at the end of its useful life.
The X X-Ray Inspection System is considered to be a Large-scale Stationary Industrial Tool
5c
(LSIT) as defined in Article 2 of the WEEE Regulations. Consequently it is the responsibility of
the user of the equipment to ensure the safe disposal of the machine at the end of its useful
life.

Emergency Procedures

1. EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN. This system is fitted with an emergency Stop button. This is
mounted on the front panel and is coloured red. In the event of an emergency,
which requires the System to be immediately stopped, press the Stop button. See
Starting and Stopping
2. DEALING WITH FIRE. In the unlikely event of fire occurring in an item of equipment
manufactured by Loma Systems, it is important that a fire extinguisher containing the
correct type of extinguishing material is used. Fire on electrical equipment must be
extinguished using a dry powder extinguisher (Blue label).
