The SC-003-3666 3-Panel Weld Curtain is an essential safety barrier designed for industrial environments where arc welding operations are conducted in proximity to other personnel. This unit is engineered to mitigate the risks associated with actinic light, specifically ultraviolet (UV) and blue light radiation generated during the welding arc. The curtain utilizes a specialized Shade 3 vinyl material, which provides a calculated level of optical filtration. This filtration is critical for preventing "arc eye" (photokeratitis) and flash burns among bystanders and passersby, while still maintaining enough translucency to allow for safety supervision from outside the welding zone.
The structural integrity of the system is provided by a robust, tubular steel frame. Unlike single-panel screens, this 3-panel configuration offers enhanced stability and versatility. The hinged design allows the screen to be deployed in various geometries, such as a three-sided enclosure (U-shape) to contain sparks and fumes more effectively, or fully extended to create a linear barrier of approximately 18 feet in length. Each panel measures 6 feet by 6 feet, offering substantial vertical coverage that adheres to standard safety protocols for welding booth heights.
Compliance with workplace safety standards, such as OSHA regulations regarding welding, cutting, and brazing, requires the isolation of arc operations. This product serves as an effective engineering control to meet these requirements. The vinyl material is also formulated to be flame retardant and resistant to the thermal energy of incidental sparks and spatter, ensuring longevity in harsh MRO and fabrication shop environments. The modular nature of the frame allows for rapid deployment and disassembly, making it an ideal solution for temporary maintenance stations or dynamic shop floor layouts.
