Goggles can be used for gas welding and electric welding to reduce the glare of arc light and filter ultraviolet and infrared rays. In nitrogen arc welding, the arc is the strongest and the radiation intensity is the largest. When the ultraviolet intensity reaches a certain level, ozone will be produced. In addition to goggles, you should also wear masks, masks, protective gloves, foot covers and canvas overalls at work.
During welding, metal, covered electrode coating, dirt and paint are covered. At the welding site, due to high temperature evaporation or combustion, smoky steam and dust are formed, which will cause poisoning. The smog of non-ferrous metals generally has different degrees of harm. For example, inhaling these smog will lead to manganese poisoning.
Therefore, effective measures must be taken during welding, such as wearing masks and installing ventilation or dust collection equipment. Adopt covered electrode with low dust and low harm; Use automatic welding instead of manual welding.

Consequences of electric welding burn
Light will appear, and the skin burned by radiation is called red. Mild burning pain will be gradually eliminated whether or not related therapeutic drugs are used. You may have a slight peeling after recovery.
In severe cases, the skin burned by radiation is called dark red. If the skin does not recover or does not recover after using relevant therapeutic drugs, there will be burn edema, a large number of desquamation at the burned area, and permanent burn scars will be left after recovery.
