When operating explosion-proof chain hoists, specific precautions must be taken to ensure the safety of personnel and to prevent accidents. Here are some key precautions:

Pre-operation Preparation:

Conduct a thorough inspection of the explosion-proof chain hoist before use, ensuring that all components are intact and functioning correctly.

Verify that the hoist meets national safety standards and has no visible damage or deformation.

Check the chain connections for tightness and absence of corrosion.

Clear the work area of obstacles and ensure no personnel are within the lifting zone.

Proper Load Management:

Select the appropriate lifting chain and equipment based on the weight and shape of the load.

Securely fix the lifting equipment to the crane and ensure that the contact surface between the lifting equipment and the load is flat and firm to prevent slipping or falling.

Avoid sudden starts or stops; lift the load smoothly and maintain its stability.

For loads with special shapes or prone to slipping, use appropriate cushioning devices or auxiliary fixing devices to enhance safety.

Never overload the hoist; always lift loads within its rated capacity.

Explosion-Proof Measures:

Ensure that the explosion-proof chain hoist is used in environments suitable for its explosion-proof rating.

Regularly inspect and maintain the explosion-proof components and features of the hoist.

Avoid exposing the hoist to conditions that could compromise its explosion-proof properties, such as extreme temperatures or chemical exposure.

Operating Procedures:

Follow the manufacturer's operating instructions and safety guidelines strictly.

Ensure that all operators are trained and qualified to use the explosion-proof chain hoist.

Conduct regular safety checks and maintenance on the hoist to identify and address potential issues promptly.

Emergency Response:

Be familiar with the emergency shutdown procedures for the explosion-proof chain hoist.

Have emergency response plans in place to deal with potential accidents or malfunctions.

Ensure that all personnel in the area are aware of the emergency response procedures and know how to use any emergency equipment provided.

Documentation and Record Keeping:

Maintain detailed records of inspections, maintenance, and repairs performed on the explosion-proof chain hoist.

Keep logs of operator training and qualifications to ensure compliance with safety standards.
