<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n(1) Herramientas que s\u00f3lo pueden provocar una chispa cuando est\u00e1n en uso (como destornilladores, llaves inglesas, destornilladores de impacto); <\/p>\n\n\n\n
(2) Herramientas que producen un c\u00famulo de chispas durante los procesos de corte o amolado. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
En la Zona 0 y la Zona 20, no se permite el uso de herramientas que puedan provocar chispas. En las Zonas 1 y 2, las herramientas de acero s\u00f3lo est\u00e1n permitidas si cumplen los requisitos del punto (1). Si se puede garantizar que no existe un entorno explosivo peligroso en el lugar de trabajo, se permite el uso de herramientas que cumplan los requisitos del punto (2). Sin embargo, si existe riesgo de explosi\u00f3n debido a la presencia de sustancias explosivas de la clase II C (acetileno, disulfuro de carbono, hidr\u00f3geno) y sulfuro de hidr\u00f3geno, \u00f3xido de etileno y mon\u00f3xido de carbono, no se permite el uso de ning\u00fan tipo de herramienta de acero en la zona 1, a menos que pueda garantizarse que no existe un entorno explosivo peligroso en el lugar de trabajo durante el uso de estas herramientas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Las herramientas de acero que cumplan el punto (1) est\u00e1n permitidas en la Zona 21 y la Zona 22. Si el lugar de trabajo est\u00e1 aislado de otras \u00e1reas de la Zona 21 y la Zona 22 y se han tomado las siguientes medidas adicionales, se permiten las herramientas de acero que cumplan el punto (2). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
- El polvo acumulado se ha retirado del lugar de trabajo; o bien <\/p>\n\n\n\n
- El lugar de trabajo se mantiene h\u00famedo para evitar que el polvo se disperse en el aire o forme puntos de combusti\u00f3n. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Al cortar o amolar en la Zona 21 o la Zona 22 o en sus proximidades, las chispas pueden volar a una distancia considerable y provocar la formaci\u00f3n de part\u00edculas incandescentes. Por lo tanto, otras \u00e1reas alrededor del lugar de trabajo tambi\u00e9n deben incluirse en el alcance de las medidas de protecci\u00f3n. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Debe existir un sistema de \u201caprobaci\u00f3n del trabajo\u201d para el uso de herramientas en la Zona 1, Zona 2, Zona 21 y Zona 22. Estas deben incluirse en la informaci\u00f3n de uso. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
