Q

7 Dangers and Hazards associated with Enclosed Spaces

  • The presence of TOXIC VAPOURS can make space deadly even if there is no lack of oxygen or the compartment is oxygen-enriched.

○ A person may suffer from eye irritation, headache or even become unconscious if he/she inhales toxic gases. A higher concentration of toxic gases can also cause death.

Q

7 Dangers and Hazards associated with Enclosed Spaces

○ The acceptable range of oxygen in an enclosed space is between 19.5% to 23.55
(20% acceptable). Oxygen in any compartment can reduce due to many factors-rusting of steel parts is the most common one.
○ We all know that rusting is nothing but the process of oxidation-thus oxygen is consumed. Oxygen can also be consumed by activities like hot work, welding or the occurrence of fire.
