Safety Equipment

Safety equipment is very important when abrasive blasting. At Hodge Clemco we have all the safety equipment you need to keep yourself and colleagues safe in a blasting environment.

Communication Systems

Communication Set

 

 

Helmet communication systems can offer an essential link between a lone operator and a supervisor.

Our low profile ear defenders are custom designed to fit below our Apollo range of helmets.

The microphone is easily adjusted for comfort and clarity.  Activation of the microphone can be by PTT (push to talk) or VOX (voice activation).

The most common communication system is a wired unit. this comes with the cables clipped to the helmet line and then connected to a powered receiver on the operator’s belt.

Our wired systems offer minimum signal degradation. They can serve multiple operators to a single supervisor station.

Wireless communication systems are also available using high specification radios linked to the same headset.

Our radio systems are offered in both standard format and intrinsically safe versions for use in hazardous environments.

Our emergency stop device consists of a pneumatic EM button. This is tripod mounted and fitted at any location along the deadman handle line.

This unit is supplied with all the fittings to allow the unit to be retrofitted. It can be fitted  to any dead man enabled handle system.

Our unit allows for the intervention of other users to switch off the blast machine in the event of an accident.

The powerful beam is targeted directly on to the surface being worked upon.
