Safe working conditions is crucial for every manufacturing operation. The safe working environment allows workers to focus on their task, thus improving the quality and efficiency of an operation. There are many health factors to consider in a manufacturing operation.
Heat, moisture and smoke are produced in manufacturing operations and has big effect on working conditions. Heat and moisture can be kept below acceptable levels through proper ventilation. Smoke, on the other hand, is much more complicated to address.
Smoke is a collection of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases emitted when a material undergoes combustion. Combustion, as you may know, is a process common in various manufacturing operations.
The concern regarding smoke does not only stem on its concentration but more on what is present in the smoke. Some unwanted foreign material might go through the combustion process and create a poisonous fume. Equipment that are not properly functioning can result to increased amount of harmful particles that are present in the smoke.
Installation of smoke tracking devices is an effective way to reduce the threats caused by smoke in a work environment. Some devices not only measure the concentration of smoke but are also to detect the presence of harmful particles.
