Health
and Safety Policy and Details
Magnetic Technology Australia (MTA) is a "health and
safety" conscious company. Our magnetic fluid conditioner (MFC)
products are designed with the objective of minimising or eliminating exposure
to heath and safety issues.
All potential health and safety issues with Scale-X MFCs have been addressed by
MTA and reduced to nil or are negligible. They are as follows:
(1) exposure to static magnetic fields
(2) physical handling of the MFCs
(3) on site ease of installation of the MFCs
(4) exposure to dangerous or harmful substances or chemicals - nil.
Exposure
to Static Magnetic Fields (Note
that 10000gauss = 1T)
Maximum exposure to static magnetic fields from Scale-X MFCs under the most
adverse conditions is less than 7% of the levels recommended by the
International Commission on Non-ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
guidelines.
These (ICNIRP) guidelines are as follows with the MTA Scale-X MFC exposure
levels shown in blue:
(a) the whole-body continuous occupational exposure to a time weighted
average magnetic flux
density should not exceed 200 mT. For a
Scale-X MFC this exposure level is less than 1mT.
(b) the maximum whole body exposure should not exceed 2T.
For a Scale-X MFC this exposure level is less
than 0.01T.
(C) when restricted to the limbs, the exposure should not exceed
5T. For a Scale-X MFC this exposure level is less
than 0.32T.
Note:
The magnetic materials used in Scale-X MFCs is also used in medical equipment.
Physical
Handling of the MFCs
The Scale-X MFCs are designed such that one man can lift and assemble the
largest units, that is, cranes and other lifting equipment are not required to
handle this equipment.
On
Site Ease of Installation of the MFCs
MTA Scale-X MFCs are designed such that installation and/or retrofit is simple
and requires no onsite hot works on the MFCs. The MFCs simply bolt in or
bolt onto the customers plant. No special equipment is required for
installation.
No Exposure to Dangerous or Harmful Substances
or Chemicals
Scale-X
Magnetic Fluid Conditioners are environmentally safe and friendly. There
are no electrical connections and no chemicals or harmful substances are used. Scale-X MFCs are
a chemically free method of controlling and/or eliminating scale deposition in
water and other fluid systems.
