SAV 531.42 2 SAFETY
DANGER!
DANGER!
DANGER!
Version 1.0
Risk of falling due to the shape of the load!
Risk of the load falling and risk of injury with permanent consequences due
to the shape of the load.
Do not lift round loads (bars, tubes) with the BM type. Shaped loads, e.g.
■
L-profiles, I-profiles, are also not permissible.
Observe the information in these operating instructions. Always the infor-
■
mation on the material to be handled (composition, dimensions, etc.) and
compare this to the table – see section 7.1.4.
Danger – strong magnetic field!
The exposure zone of the magnetic field poses a risk of injury and death
for persons with pacemakers, electronic medical device implants, active
implants or ferromagnetic foreign bodies.
Minimum distance 2 m!
■
Whether persons with pacemakers, active implants or ferromagnetic
■
foreign bodies can work on machines with magnet devices has to be
decided in each individual case and upon consultation with a physician.
Measurements may have to be carried out.
In any case, the hazard zone has to be limited in such a way that the
■
basic limit of 0.5 mT is not reached.
The applicable limits in the exposure zone of the magnetic field as per
■
BGV B11 (Regulation issued by the German Social Accident Insurance
Institutions), Annex 2, are not exceeded.
Peak values for head or torso: 2.000 T
■
Mean value for 8 h full-body exposure: 0.212 T
■
Peak value for extremities: 5.000 T
■
As the magnetic saturation for St 37 is 1.6 – 1.9 T and the magnetic field
■
is concentrated in the area near the pole surface, the limits stated above
are not exceeded in the range > 10 cm.
As per the Bavarian Environment Agency (LfU) and the German Federal
■
Occupational Health and Safety Regulation (EMFV) of 15/11/2016,
constant magnetic fields < 2 T have no adverse effect on health.
Risk of crushing!
There is a risk of crushing when the active magnet makes contact with a
ferromagnetic load.
Always position the lifting magnet on the load while it is not magnetised.
■
Wear personal protective equipment.
