Injuries due to splashing of aggressive liquids or explosion of ammables can be
avoided by wearing proper clothing, which may include coveralls, aprons, shoes,
goggles, gloves, face mask, respirator and hat. Each of the above operators could have
avoided some bodily harm by wearing outer garments for protection from skin burns.
LIMITED 1 YEAR WARRANTY
An Ounce of Prevention . . .
Flammable solvents are often purchased in bulk and
transferred manually or with motor driven pumps.
Care must be taken to neutralize static electricity
which may rest as a potential in the storage tank, as
well as that which may rest in the receiving tank.
The potential of such would, of course be greatly
increased if the liquid were allowed to splash around
during movement of the container. Therefore both
containers must be satisfactorily grounded, and then
each of the containers must be bonded, that is
connecting the ground wire from tank to tank so that
the potential static electricity is now equalized.
SPARKS FROM OPEN MOTOR
CAUSE EXPLOSION
“User of pump is burned while transferring explosive
liquids. Accident was caused by the use of an open
motor... Explosion resulted and the employee was
burned over many parts of his body.”
SLASHING OF ACID CAUSES BURNS
“Operator working with aggressive acids re-
ceives skin burns when pump, which was en-
ergized, created pressure in a pressure vessel
not closed properly, therefore allowing liquid to
escape and splashing the operator.”
In addition to the proper use of bonding and ground-
ing cables, when motorized pumps are used to trans-
fer ammables and combustibles those of the explo-
sion proof or air driven type should be used. Electric
or air motors are often wired and/or enclosed in such
a way that no sparks can be emitted from the mo-
tor casing - otherwise sparks from the motor could
cause the ammable liquid to ash or explode.
Operator should have checked the instruction
manual and followed procedures as set forth by the
manufacturer to ensure that the cover of the pres-
sure vessel was securely tightened. Operator could
also have prevented bodily injury if he was protected
with adequate clothing, which is fabricated to resist
such liquids.
