| 1. Always wear gloves,
safety goggles, anti-noise ear defenders, a dust mask and other
appropriate personal protective equipment.
2. Do not wear loose clothing,
jewelry or open-toed shoes. Long hair must be tied.
3. Operation must be conducted
in a well-ventilated area or a Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV)
system is used. Dry ice sublimation will produce a large amount
of carbon dioxide (CO2), which can reduce the oxygen
concentration in the confined space and pose a suffocation
hazard. The CO2 concentration monitoring alarm should be
installed in the working area.
4. It is strictly prohibited
to store flammable and explosive materials (e.g., solvents and
cardboard boxes) within 3 meters of the equipment. Static sparks
may be generated during dry ice cleaning.
5. Use an insulated and
anti-static workbench and ensure it is stable. The ground in the
working area should be kept dry to prevent slipping and falling.
6. Never look directly into
the nozzle. Dry ice particles are ejected at extremely high
velocity, and direct viewing may cause eye injury.
7. Do not spray at people. The
nozzle must not point at any personnel regardless of whether the
equipment is running or not.
8. Do not clean energized
equipment. Before cleaning, ensure that the PCBA is disconnected
from all power sources and properly discharged.
9. Do not clean components of
unknown composition or loose parts. For boards with loose
components or unknown chemical coatings on the surfaces, an
assessment must be conducted first to prevent component
detachment or chemical reactions caused by cleaning.
10. The jet pressure is
directly affected by the inlet air flow so that the inlet air
flow cannot be too low. If the inlet air flow is excessive,
adjust it by using the pressure regulating valve.
11. When the air pressure is
constant, the higher the ice spray quantity, the better the
cleaning effect. When the pressure is low, and the ice spray
quantity is excessive, pipe blockage may occur.
12. If the machine suddenly
stops spraying air or ice under normal electrical conditions,
the pipe may be blocked by ice. Switch to the air jet mode and
press the spray gun to spray air so as to clear the blockage and
resume operation. |
