If fire breaks out, the air temperature above the fire rises and
the sprinkler activates when the air temperature gets high
enough.
Only the sprinkler nearest the fire activates. Smoke will not
activate sprinklers.
And finally, CO2 does provide some cooling in the fire zone
to complete the extinguishing process.

Machine Guarding
INTERLOCKED
GUARDS
▪ Guards the dangerous part before the
machine can be operated.
▪ Keeps the guard closed until the
dangerous part is at rest.
▪ Prevent operation of the machine if the
interlocking device fails
▪ May use electrical, mechanical,
hydraulic, or pneumatic power or any
combination of these.
▪ Should not prevent “inching” by remote
control, if required.
▪ Replacing the guard should not
automatically restart the machine.
▪ All moveable guards must be interlocked
to prevent hazards.
35
Machine Guarding
ADJUSTABLE GUARDS
▪ Provides a barrier that may be adjusted
to facilitate a variety of production
operations.
▪ Can be adjusted to admit varying sizes
of stock.
▪ Hands may enter danger area -
protection may not be complete at all
times
▪ May require frequent maintenance and/
or adjustment
▪ The guard may be made ineffective by
the operator
36
Machine Guarding
SELF ADJUSTING
GUARDS
▪ The openings of self-adjusting guards
are determined by the movement of the
stock.
▪ As the operator moves the stock into the
danger area, the guard is pushed away,
providing an opening which is only large
enough to admit the stock. After the
stock is removed, the guard returns to
the rest position.
▪ May require frequent maintenance and
adjustment
