Compressed Air hose Safety Guidelines

                  

 When use compressed air, industry today does everything from running huge equipment to powering simple air tools. Compressed air is a valuable tool but can also be very dangerous when used in an unsafe manner. If you work with Compressed Air…be sure that you follow these safety guidelines:

1. Never apply compressed air to the skin or direct it at a person. Even air at a pressure of 15 psig can cause serious injury. Never use a compressed air hose to clean dirt or dust from your clothing or body. 

2. When using compressed air for cleaning purposes, ensure pressure does not exceed 30 psig (per OSHA regulations). Always use goggles or a face shield over approved safety glasses for this application. 

3. Wear ear protection. Exposure to excessive noise can damage hearing. Noise reducing mufflers can be fitted to machines to lessen the noise health hazard. 

4. Never crimp, couple, or uncouple pressurized air hose. Shut off valves and bleed down pressure before making any hose connections. 

5. Use heavy duty clamps and fittings made especially for compressed air hose. Use only the correct type and size of hose end fittings and connections. 

6. Never use frayed, damaged or deteriorated hoses. Always store hoses properly and away from heat sources or direct sunlight. A hose failure can cause serious injury. Hose Reels can decrease your chances of injury, as well as help hoses last longer. 


7. When blowing compressed air through a hose or air hoses, ensure that the open end is held securely. A free end can whip and can cause injury. Open the supply air valve carefully and ensure that any ejected particles will be restrained. A blocked hose can become a dangerous “compressed air gun.”
