Discuss the following: (a) Ventilation. (b) Illumination.

assignment 2 6. Discuss the following: (a) Ventilation. (b) Illumination. ans Industrial Ventilation Solutions Ensure Healthy Air Quality Ventilation is an important part of any industrial HVAC system and helps ensure a safe and healthy working environment for all employees. Placing fans at strategic points inside a building may not be enough to provide adequate ventilation for the workforce, especially if we oversee a factory or warehouse facility, or are around chemicals and other contaminants. Government safety agencies suggest a better solution is using motorized building ventilation systems because they are designed to remove air and contaminants, reducing harmful elements to a safe level. Indoor Air Quality Indoor air quality is important to workers’ health. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration links poor air quality to symptoms that can include everything from headaches and fatigue to eye, nose, throat and even lung irritation. Asthma is one h...

assignment 2 Q 2. Describe in detail about the principles and various types machine guarding. ans Fixed Guards As its name implies, a fixed guard is a permanent part of the machine. It is not dependent upon moving parts to perform its intended function. It may be constructed of sheet metal, screen, wire cloth, bars, plastic or any other material that is substantial enough to withstand whatever impact it may receive and to endure prolonged use. This guard is usually preferable to all other types because of its relative simplicity and permanence. Interlocked Guards When the interlocked guard is opened or removed, the tripping mechanism and/or power automatically shuts off or disengages, and the machine cannot cycle or be started until the guard is back in place. An interlocked guard may use electrical, mechanical, hydraulic or pneumatic power or any combination of these. Interlocks should not prevent “inching” by remote control, if required.
