OSHA Requires a Compressed Air Safety Shut-Off Valve


Did you know that OSHA Requires a
Compressed Air Safety Shut-Off Valve?


The OSHA Safety Standard Regulation 29CFR CHXVII Paragraph 1926.302(b)(7) states:   All hoses exceeding 1/2-inch inside diameter shall have a safety device at the source of supply or branch line to reduce pressure in case of hose failure.


Prevent dangerous air hose whips and accidents.   Protect your most important assets: Your employees and their equipment.

OSHA Compliant COMPRESSED AIR SAFETY SHUT-OFF VALVES 
offers simple but efficient protection to pneumatic systems in the event of a broken compressed air hose or pipe.

Another OSHA guideline publication states:
“Hoses, cables, and other equipment shall be kept clear of passageways, ladders and stairs.” 

OSHA says reduce your slips, trips and falls.
Slips, trips and falls constitute the majority of general industry accidents, which cause 15% of all accidental deaths, and are second only to motor vehicles as a cause of fatalities. The OSHA standard for walking and working surfaces apply to all permanent places of employment, except where only domestic, mining, or agricultural work is performed.

Consider adding reels to increase safety & efficiency with your electrical cords, welding cables, air hose, oil, grease, liquid/water or fuel hoses.  This could be one of your most effective equipment additions you’ll ever make…as well as one of the safest!

I didn't know that slips and falls accounted for 15% of all accidental deaths in general industry. Keeping hoses out of passageways as you suggest would be a really good idea to reduce these accidents. Thank you for the safety tips. http://www.regionaltruck.com/about-us.html
