Safety Regulations
1.2.2 Hazards
Acidic, alkaline, or other environments with harsh substances may
damage the hardware elements in the confined space system. If working
in a chemically aggressive environment, consult MSA to determine
acceptable system components for your specific conditions.
Chemical hazards, heat and corrosion may damage the confined space
system. More frequent formal inspections are required in environments
with chemical hazards, heat and corrosion.
Do not expose to corrosive environments for prolonged periods. Use
extreme caution when working near energized electrical sources.
Maintain a safe working distance (preferably at least 10 feet (3m)) from
electrical hazards. When working near moving machinery parts
(e.g. conveyors, rotating shafts, presses, etc.), make sure that there are
no loose elements in any part of the system.
Any confined space system which shows signs of excessive wear,
deterioration or malfunction must be removed from use and marked
"UNUSABLE" until repaired.
Any confined space system which has been subjected to the forces of a
fall must be immediately removed from service and marked
"UNUSABLE" until submitted to, and released from, formal inspection.
