Pre-Incident Planning

• Due to the variety of equipment, specific rescue techniques will vary • Pre-planning is key to success • Differs from procedural approach as in vehicle extrication • Plan should consider: • Maintenance personnel • Location of Operating Instructions and manuals

Course Name – Unit Title

Pre-incident plan • Plan should consider: – Number, types, locations of machinery at specific location – Types of power sources and their cutoffs – Hazard potential of materials or chemical used

Course Name – Unit Title

Pre-incident plan

• Plan should consider: • Maintenance personnel on-site • Locations of diagrams or drawings • Equipment on hand that can be used • Manufacturer contact information

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Scene survey – First step in any extrication – Use same concept as auto extrication – Rescue officer and one rescuer should proceed to the scene while rest of team waits for further instructions

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Scene survey – Rescue officer evaluates: • Condition of victim (ABCs) • Degree of entrapment • Number of rescuers required • Type of equipment needed • Any special personnel or equipment needed

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Scene survey – Rescue officer evaluates: • Any expert assistance required • Any other hazards present • Level of fire present • Assume all electrical situations are energized • Cordon off the incident site

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Seek expert assistance – Equipment may be beyond expertise of rescue personnel – Experts may include: • Equipment operators • Maintenance personnel • Equipment manufacturer

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Neutralize power sources – Shut down power when working around machinery – Ask if machine is full cycle/press type that must complete its full range of motion before it can be stopped – Primary power source is normally electrical

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Neutralize power sources – Identify other power sources used by the machinery • Hydraulic (fluids under pressure) • Pneumatic (compressed air) • Stored energy in springs • Potential energy from suspended parts

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Neutralize power sources – If safe to isolate power, lockout/tagout IAW 29 CFR 1910.147 and local SOPs • Station a rescuer at power source with a radio • Isolate any other power sources • Prevent any source of movement • Block parts

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Stabilize Machinery – The majority is accomplished during neutralization – Further stabilization may be needed – Cribbing used for automobiles may not be sufficient

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Stabilize Machinery – Survey again • After power neutralization and stabilization, victim may be able to be freed • Repeating these steps may point out more problems than first realized

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Extricate the victim – Extrication begins only after zero mechanical state achieved – 4 critical factors to consider • Time • Victim • Rescuer • Machine

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Extricate the victim – Zero mechanical state means there is no way the machine can operate without the systems being restored

Course Name – Unit Title

Extricating the Victim

• Industrial extrications fall into 3 categories: – Manipulative – Disassembly – Force the machine

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Manipulative • Simplest and quickest • Where victim is manipulated • Where machine is manipulated • Limited to degree of entrapment

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Disassembly –Most common approach –May require special tools

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial Extrication

• Force the machine – Least desirable – Ensure you have appropriate tools for the job

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial extrication

• Equipment retrieval – Rescuer safety is of primary importance – If equipment cannot be moved without endangering rescuers, leave it in place – Inspect equipment for damage and service as required

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial extrication

• Securing and restoring the scene – Local protocol dictates who is to restore an emergency scene – When all hazards are eliminated, lockout/tagout devices can be removed at the discretion of the IC or plant manager

Course Name – Unit Title

Industrial extrication

• Securing and restoring the scene – If any hazards still exist • Inform owner/manager • Review actions taken by rescuers • Review suggestions to prevent future incidents • Have owner/manager sign written release

In Plant Facilities

• Always check with on site maintenance personnel , they know the LOTO points and hazards of the equipment • For LOTO consider a computer terminal in todays automated world to shut down machinery production lines.

• Electric fans and or smoke ejectors may be used to reduce the temperature in the machinery area.
