Select Safety Labels #72

Closed randej closed 10 years ago

randej commented 10 years ago

We need labels to show the location of the main circuit breaker and the pressure relief valve. Suggestions below, need to vote/select two. @randej likes the Compressed Air (top left) and Power Shutoff w.Arrow (middle left). Found these at http://www.safetysign.com

safety stickers

I also like the "Power Shut off" w/arrow (middle left) and "Compressed Air" warning (top left), though I wonder if it's worth having a "Lock out here" image (we can modify to point up) next to the "Compressed Air" warning sign.

I like the idea of 2 red arrows pointing to the 2 things that have to be dealt with. The compressed air warning doesn't really talk about how to make it safe; it's just a warning to be cautious, and it's pretty essential, too.

My worry with the arrows is we don't have Lexan to the left of the pressure dump valve. So we may just have to locate at an angle. The two blue labels also have potential -- they are int'l standards: 1) disconnect before servicing, and 2) disconnect power before opening. One looks like the pressure valve, could put compressed air label next to it.

It's not difficult to change these images to have the arrow point up. I don't particularly care for the blue images; I don't think they'd be as easily seen, nor do they connote enough caution IMO.

rhauch commented 10 years ago

Or, rather than edit images and print ourselves, if we buy labels we can cut the arrow portion off of the "Lock out here" label and have it point up.

randej commented 10 years ago

Yep, missed that - looks easy to cut off the arrow and relocate if need be. So I'd say "Power Shut Off" and "Lock Out Point for Pressure/Comp Air". Due to the late hour, I'd say we just order these from vendor and focus on getting sponsor stickers (and any decorations) made.
