Electrocution Hazard
At 48 volts, WarmTronics complies with the HSE safety guidelines ("Electricity - Systems in buildings") for portable electrical equipment at work:
1. Low Voltage Compliance: Since WarmTronics operates at 48 volts, it falls well below the 110V threshold, significantly reducing the risk of electrical shock in case of damage or faulty equipment. This makes it safe for use in work environments, where standard 230-240V equipment poses a higher risk of injury.
2. No Need for Daily Inspections: As WarmTronics uses low voltage, it lowers the risk of severe injury, which is particularly important when tools are exposed to rough site conditions. With higher voltage tools at 230-240V, HSE recommends that devices with trailing cables require residual current devices (RCDs) and cables must be checked for damage at the end of every shift, with safety records maintained.
Fire Hazard
There are no exposed electrical heating elements, with heating regulation up to 60 °C maximum. This greatly reduces any fire risk compared to traditional fan heaters, or radiant lamp heaters, which operate between 400°C and 1500°C
Trip Hazard
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) does not specify a precise height at which a trip hazard becomes dangerous. However, various sources indicate that a height of 25mm (1 inch) is commonly considered a threshold for potential trip hazards.
Our Heated Anti-Fatigue Mats feature a slim 25mm-high design that reduces the risk of slips, trips, and falls. Additionally, to further enhance safety and alert moving operators to even the slightest change in floor elevation, they are powder-coated in bright Signal Yellow (RAL #1003), ensuring maximum visibility.
