About the webinar
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) provides national standards to achieve the safety of people working with industrial equipment. Join us in our fourth and final webinar to learn more about the recently updated ANSI B11.19 safety standard.
In this webinar, we will discuss updated approaches for determining safety distances for engineering control devices used to reduce risk to individuals in the workplace and the importance of considering safety distances when implementing them.
Agenda
Date: TBD
Time: TBD
Location: Virtual
Topics Covered
• How to ANSI B11.19 addresses calculating
safety distance.
• Updates to reaching distance considerations for engineering
control devices, including: vertical & horizontal presence-sensing devices,
and two-hand and single actuating controls.
• Guidance for additional engineering control devices,
including: single beam devices, interlocked guards, and pressure-sensitive
edges and bumpers.
• New information for applying reaching distance factors to
determine adequate location of safety-related manual control devices.
