Safety Tip of the Week:

: An eye wash station is necessary in all industries that handle chemicals and hazardous materials. The temperature of the flushing fluid is just as important outdoors as indoors. Most are concerned about the temperature in the winter going below 60 degrees and not being ANSI compliant, but another concern is the flushing fluid exceeding 100 degrees. This can happen in industrial areas without air conditioning and outdoors where sun exposure heats the water to uncomfortable levels. When installing an eye wash station, take into consideration all seasons and climate changes.

Ventilation Fans for Confined Space

Employees working in confined space have hazards to contend with on a daily basis. A ventilation fan is an important piece of equipment for these workers. It will recirculate the air and keep temperatures lower which helps the comfort of the workers by making it much easier to breath.

A ventilation fan will bring air in from an area, compress it and then direct it to the confined space. There are two types of fans that can be purchased, one will suction draft and the other will force ventilation. The benefit of properly circulated air cannot be over- estimated especially when hazardous air is forced out of the area.
