This article aims at describing the main industrial machines sources of electromagnetic fields according to radiation frequency and measured magnitude.
This conference made it possible to survey the biological effects of the electromagnetic radiations. Their possible pathological effects were approached through several epidemiological studies, followed by a presentation of various medical…
The European Directive 2013/35 / EU has just been transposed into French law by Decree No. 2016-1074 of 3 August 2016 on the protection of workers against risks due to electromagnetic fields. These decree requirements, codified in the Labor Code…
The operator electromagnetic field exposure was measured in France on 1000 workplaces close to main radiating industrial machines. Result analysis enabled the development of a basic application for a rough assessment of operator exposure…
A MRI device is a complex electromagnetic field, which frequencies run from 0 Hz to few hundred Hz. Each frequency component can generate multiple risks for the worker moving in the MRI area: surrounding metals attraction, body induced currents…
Electromagnetic forming is an industrial process using pulsed magnetic field for shaping conductive material. With reference to the European Directive 2013/35/UE, evaluating the electromagnetic safety of workers seems overriding. Experiments…
One in every two machines that emit electric and magnetic fields is a resistance welder. Resistance welding machines expose their operators to high magnetic fields which may exceed the exposure action values defined by European Directive…
To reduce operators exposure from electromagnetic fields of old design high frequency welding machines, a technical measure consisting of the installation of a so called "grounding pad" device can be envisaged. This document was mainly written…
