eyes! It can lead to severe sunburn or to inflammation of the
retina and conjunctiva, and possibly to skin cancer.
The following instructions must be
followed when working with the
UVAHAND LED:
Personal safety equipment must be
worn to protect the eyes and skin,
unless the UV radiation is complete-
ly screened by structural measures.
Goggles should conform the stand-
ard EN 170 (max. spectral trans-
mission (365 nm) 0.3 %), and
should afford protection from radia-
tion, both directly and from the side.
Gloves to protect hands should
have a Clothing Protection Factor
(CPF) of 30+ this is equivalent to
the sun protection factor quoted for
sunscreens.
Materials degrade when exposed to
UV light, therefore PPE´s must be
inspected before use. Damaged or
items showing signs of ageing must
be replaced.
Never look directly or indirectly into
the LED aperture.
The UVAHAND LED must not be
operated without the protective
glass.
The UVAHAND LED must be set up
in such a way that persons are not
subjected to the radiation, either di-
rectly or indirectly. UV-absorbent
plastics or metal sheet can be used
as shields
In the case of manual workplaces or

before operation.
Risks caused by gases
Some materials under certain condi-
tions can release fumes when irradiat-
ed with the UVAHAND LED.
Observe the safety data sheets for
the materials to be radiated.
Assess the risks created by work
involving such substances and es-
tablish measures to meet control
regulations.
Refer to the Control of Substances
Hazardous to Health Regulations
1999 (COSHH)
Commonly used UV curing adhe-
sives do not release fumes with ex-
posure to UVAHAND 250 GS.
UV rays encourage the production
of ozone. For this reason, it is
essential to ensure that the
workroom is well ventilated.
Before beginning of operation, the
air pollution at the workplace should
be measured. If the air pollution
values are increased, an aeration/
ventilation system needs to be in-
stalled.
