Standby person

A proper communication system must be devised. A three-way system with a connection to the ground, tower manhole, and work area inside the tower is considered most efficient (274). A person must never be inside the column unless another person stands by at the manhole. The standby person must always be aware of the exact location of the person inside, and be trained in emergency procedures. [Pg.261]

Since a PAAP type of unit wUl permit entry into an IDLH atmosphere, assuming all other personal protective equipment is suitable, the user should be aware of a number of essential safety practices associated with this use. At leastone standby person with the proper equipment for entry and rescue must be present outside the affected area. Communications must be continuously maintained between the worker within the area and the standby person. Persons within the area must be equipped with devices such as harnesses and safety lines to facilitate rescue operations should they be necessary. [Pg.719]

Have a standby person outside a tank in the nearest uncontaminated area, with a suitable respirator, ability to communicate with employees in the tank, and a lifeline so the standby person can rescue the employee inside. [Pg.649]

Communications (visual, voice, signal line, telephone, radio, or other suitable type) must be maintained among all persons present (those in the IDLH atmosphere and the standby person or persons). The respirator wearers are to be equipped with safety harnesses and safety lines to permit their removal from the IDLH atmosphere if they are overcome. [Pg.301]

Environments containing IDLH atmospheres are frequently well-enough understood and controlled that a single standby person is adequate. In most fixed workplaces, the atmosphere is known (i.e., has been well defined either through analysis of monitoring results or through a process hazard analysis). In many industrial IDLH situations, only one respirator user is exposed to the IDLH atmosphere at a time, which means that a single standby person can easily monitor that employee s status (when needed, the standard requires more than one employee outside). [Pg.317]

Even in situations where more than one respirator user is inside an IDLH atmosphere, a single standby person can often provide adequate communication and support. For... [Pg.317]

However, there are instances where more than one standby person is needed. For example, to clean and paint the interior of a multi-level, multi-portal water tower — a process that often generates a deadly atmosphere as a result of cleaning solution and paint solvent vapors — employees often enter the tower through different portals to work on different levels. In such a situation, there would be a need for good communications at each entry portal, and more than one standby person would be needed to maintain adequate communication and accessibility. [Pg.318]

Emergency procedures for evacuating people from inside the column and for rescuing any person injured inside must be prepared and approved by the officer responsible for safety. The work crew should be well-trained in implementing this procedure. First aid and standby medical aid should be available. [Pg.260]

Standby—stays in the work area and ensures that the person performing the work is safe, wears the PPE required to perform the job, warns the person performing the work if a hazardous condition develops, and calls for help, if needed. [Pg.217]

Less suction and complete stoppage of suction fans can be very dangerous as any small quantity of chlorine leak can be inhaled by persons in the working area. Provide installed standby suction fans. [Pg.312]

Be sure that at least two fully trained and certified standby or rescue persons, equipped with proper rescue equipment (including SCBA), will be present in the nearest safe area for emergency rescue of those wearing respirators in an IDLH atmosphere. [Pg.300]
