Screenflex® is available in a range of colours and thicknesses, thoughtfully designed to meet transparency requirements while effectively blocking dirt and debris. Moreover, it offers thermal and sound insulation, contributing to an enhanced level of workplace comfort.
产品用途
Why Choose Screenflex?
Screenflex® acts as a strong protective barrier, safeguarding observers and nearby personnel from dangerous arc light, radiation, and hot debris during welding. This innovative PVC material allows for safe observation of welders while protecting against exposure to UV radiation and harmful light wavelengths.
It is useful in various industries where close proximity to welding is common or secure monitoring of welders is essential. Screenflex® is a critical safety measure that enhances workplace safety and enables effective supervision in diverse industrial environments.
Common Applications:
- Outdoor Welding
- Manufacturing
- Outside Operations
- Welding Bays
- Engineering Factories
- Welding Training Centers
Complies safety standard
Screenflex meets ISO 25980 and AWS F2.3M requirements, making it a recommended safety solution for workplaces. These protective measures are designed to safeguard employees and business property from harmful radiation, heat, light, and fumes.
Which Colour is Best for Your Application?
Highly transparent PVC allows observers to clearly see welding activities, though the emitted light may be more intense. Conversely, less transparent Screenflex options significantly reduce external light, providing more comfort for observers and greater privacy for welders.
All Screenflex colors effectively shield against UV radiation, making any color suitable for this purpose.
The hazards of welding
Hazards Caused by Light Radiation : During the welding process, an electric arc emits substantial ultraviolet, infrared, and blue light radiation, which can cause cicatrizing conjunctivitis, erythema, and other ocular lesions.
Screenflex Protects Onlookers From Radiation : Screenflex protective PVC absorbs hazardous radiation, both visible (like blue light) and invisible (such as infrared and ultraviolet radiation), enhancing workplace safety and ensuring all employees are shielded from the harsh radiation produced during the welding process.
Screenflex Protects Personnel and Property From Heated Metal and Fires : Molten metallic particles (weld spatter) can reach temperatures over 1,500 °C, posing significant burn risks and fire hazards. Screenflex welding screens prevent the spread of weld spatter, safeguarding the welder's work environment. These protective barriers greatly reduce the likelihood of fires and injuries, enhancing workplace safety and providing peace of mind.
The hazards of welding lights
A Safe Worker is a Happy Worker
Screenflex welding screens provide essential protection during welding, minimizing workplace hazards. Their semi-transparency provides the added advantage of enabling visual monitoring of welders from a safer vantage point, effectively distancing individuals from potential dangers.
Are Welding Screens Required?
They are vital for both compliance with health and safety regulations, as well as protecting your employees during welding, reducing workplace injuries and fires. Prioritising employee well-being and safety is paramount.
