20、1 An assessment of the Dotential risks from the materials and processes used will be made 4 ANSI BI1 TR 2-1997 Mist Control to determine their risks to worker occupational health. This assessment will cover potential worker exposure from mists, dusts, vapors, fumes, gases, and microbiological activi

21、ty of metalworking fluids. The assessment should be done as part of system development, but will be the ultimate responsibility of the machinery user. 4.2 The level of risk depends not only on the hazardous properties of the materials and process used, but by the manner of use and the precautions ta

22、ken. Health effects of the materials and process may include: 4.2.1 Short term effects such as upper and lower respiratory irritation. 4.2.2 Dermatological effects. 4.2.3 Sensitization. 4.2.4 Potential long term health effects. 4.3 Routes of Entry in the Body of a Worker Include: 4.3.1 Inhalation. 4

30、Control 5 CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE DESIGN OF METALWORKING FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEMS 5.1 Introduction The generation of airborne contaminants can be minimized through the proper design and operation of the metalworking fluid delivery system, and through the proper selection and maintenance of metalworking

31、 fluid. 5.2 Metalworking Fluid Application: 5.2.1 The following generalities can be applied to a given metalworking fluid application: 5.2.1.1 The higher the oil content in a metalworking fluid, the higher the concentration of mist that will be generated. 5.2.1.2 The higher the temperature of a meta

32、lworking fluid, the higher its evaporation rate. 5.2.1.3 The higher the discharge velocities of metalworking fluids through application nozzles, the higher the concentration of mist generated. 5.2.1.4 The higher the tramp oil contamination level in a water-based fluid system, the higher the concentr

33、ation of mist generated. 5.2.1.5 The more unstable the emulsion in a water soluble oil fluid, the higher the concentration of mist generated. 5.2.1.6 The higher the viscosity of a metalworking fluid, the higher the frictional losses in a system, and thus, the higher the temperature of the fluid. 5.2

34、.1.7 The higher the flow rate of metalworking fluid used, the higher the concentration of mist generated. 5.2.1.8 The more fluid surface exposed to atmosphere, the higher the evaporation rate. 5.2.2 From these generalities come the following directives for minimizing mist or vapor generation: 5.2.2.

35、1 5.2.2.2 5.2.2.3 5.2.2.4 5.2.2.5 5.2.2.6 5.2.2.7 Minimize fluid delivery pressures. Match fluid to application. Use low oil concentrations where possible. Minimize tramp oil contamination. Maintain control of metalworking fluid chemistry. Minimize the metalworking fluid flow rate. Cover fluid reser

36、voirs and return systems as much as possible. 7 ANSI BI1 TR 2-1997 Mist Control 5.2.2.8 Maintain a low metalworking fluid temperature. 5.3 Metalworking Fluid Selection 5.3.1 Straight oils: 5.3.1.1 Straight oils are not very effective at dissipating heat, and therefore will run at higher temperatures

37、 than water-based fluids. 5.3.1.2 Straight oils are generally more viscous than water-based fluids. The associated frictional losses in a system also act to raise the temperature of the fluid. 5.3.1.3 Straight oils generate mist readily, even at low velocities. 5.3.1.4 Straight oils evaporate at a m

38、uch lower rate than water-based fluids. 5.3.1.5 Straight oils are stable, and require minimal maintenance. 5.3.2 Water soluble oils: 5.3.2.1 Water soluble oils are very effective at dissipating heat. 5.3.2.2 Water soluble oils have viscosities close to that of water 5.3.2.3 Water soluble oils dont g

39、enerate mist readily at low velocities. 5.3.2.4 Water soluble oils evaporate at a faster rate than straight oils. This tends to humidify the air and to remove heat from the fluid. 5.3.2.5 Water soluble oils require maintenance of several chemical parameters in order to assure a stable emulsion. 5.3.

40、2.6 Water soluble oils are readily affected by tramp oils, affecting both fluid stability and misting capabilities. 5.3.3 Semi-synthetic fluids: 5.3.3.1 The characteristics of semi-synthetic fluids are similar to those of water soluble oils and synthetics. 5.3.3.2 The misting tendencies of semi-synt

41、hetic fluids fall between water-soluble oils and synthetic fluids. 8 ANSI BI1 TR 2-1997 Mist Control CHARACTERISTICS EVAPORATION METALWORKING FLUID CHARACTERISTICS CONTRIBUTING TO AIRBORNE CONTAMINANT GENERATION Ranking Key: l=low, 3=high MIST HEAT VISCOSITY MAINTENANCE GENERATION DISSIPATION INPUT

43、characteristics of synthetic fluids are similar to those of water soluble oils. 5.3.4.2 Synthetic fluids generate slightly lower mist concentration than water soluble oils. 5.3.4.3 Synthetic fluids are less likely to be affected by tramp oils than water soluble oils. 5.4 METALWORKING FLUID DELIVERY

44、SYSTEM COMPONENTS 5.4.1 system. Pump: the device that takes fluid from a reservoir and transfers it to the delivery piping 5.4.2 Delivery piping system: the artery which takes fluid from the pump discharge, and delivers it to the machine distribution piping network. 5.4.3 Machine distribution piping

45、: a network which takes a single fluid stream and divides it as necessary to supply the fluid applicators. 5.4.4 Fluid application: nozzles at the termination points of the machine distribution piping which direct fluid towards the tool, workpiece, and/or swar generated. 5.4.5 Shedding: chuting, pla

46、tes and piping within a machine which directs used fluid and generated swarf into the return system or fluid reservoir. 5.4.6 Return from machine: above or below floor conveyance used to carry metalworking fluids and generated swarf into the fluid reservoir. This is not required when the reservoir i

47、s integral to the machine. 5.4.7 Fluid reservoir: a vessel which receives the metalworking fluid from the machine return, and from which the pumping equipment draws. It may be part of a clarification system which separates the swarf prior to repumping. Fluid clarification is an important part of flu

48、id maintenance. 9 ANSI BI 1 TR 2-1997 Mist Con tro I Fluid Reservoir Metalworking fluid flush. 6.2.1.7.2 High pressure (greater than 50 P.S.I.); Gun-drilling and coolant through tools. 6.3 Machine Features 6.3.1 Chip shedding 6.3.1.1 Maintain a shedding angle of 43“ from horizontal minimum in idle s

49、tations. (See Annex B) 6.3.1.2 Maintain a shedding angle as close to vertical as possible in work stations. 6.3.1.3 Maximizing shedding angles will generally reduce coolant flow required to clear chips. 6.3.2 Base Types 6.3.2.1 Continuous Weld - These bases have less chance of leaks and lower noise transmission but more supporting members are required. These supporting members may trap chips and require more metalworking fluid flow to clear chips. 6.3.2.2 Cast - These bases have fewer supporting members and thus fewer chip traps and fewer surfaces to create mist by impact. 6.3.2.3 Fewer
