GYSDUCTION AUTO
Dangerosity of the gas fumes
• Keep the head away from the fumes, do not inhale.
• If working inside, ventilate the area or use a fume extractor to evacuate the gases and
fumes.
• Induction heating of certain materials such as adhesives and flux can generate fumes
and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be dangerous for your health. For
example, heating urethane generates a gas : hydrogen cyanide, potentially mortal for
humans.
• If the ventilation is insufficent, use an approved respiratory unit.
• Read the safety data sheets (MSDS) and the manufacturer's instructions for adhesvies,
flux, metals, consumables, coatings, cleaning agents, corrosives, and paint strippers.
• Do not use the heater on parts being degreased or sprayed. The heat might react with
fumes and generate highly toxic gases.
• Work in a confined area only if it's well ventilated, or use an approved repiratory/filtra-
tion unit. Make sure that a qualified person is around to watch over you. The fumes and
gases released while heating can replace oxygen or air, causing accidents or death.
Check the quality of the air you're breathing
• Do not overheat metals, such as galvanised steel, covered with lead or cadmium, unless
the coating is removed from the surface before it's heated, that the area is well ventila-
ted, and if needed, use an approved filtration/respiratory unit.. Foundry pieces and all
metals containing such elements may generates toxic fumes if overheated. Check the
MSDS for temperature related details.
Warning, electrical danger
Caution: Danger of optical radiation when the heated metal ele- ments reach fusion.
Warning ! Major magnetic field. People wearing active or passive implants must be infor-
med.
No further protectective steps are required when the machine is used on its own. Further
restrictions and/or protective measures may be necessary in other cases
After maintenance, the magnetic field levels must be checked before the machine is
used again.
When switched on, never put the inductor near the head or vital organs.
People wearing pacemakers are advised to not come close to the machine. Risk of
disruption of pacemaker operations when close to the machine. Consult a doctor be-
fore getting close to induction heaters.
Risk of metal or adhesive projections
• Wear approved protective goggles with lateral protections, or protect the whole face
with a screen.
• Wear protective clothes.
• Wear gloves.
Do not obstruct the machine's air intake, which facilitates air circulation. Check the ins-
tallation chapter before using the device.
Connection:
• This machine must be connected to an earthed socket.
