If you're managing a large, industrial project, the amount of things you have to worry about is immense. Most businesses just require tasks to get done. When you're an industrial manager, though, you have to get the tasks done, stay under budget, finish on time (preferably early though), and of course keep everyone safe. It's a tough job to say the least. But for one of those concerns, we're here to help you out - providing you with the best industrial cable protectors in the industry.

You may be thinking that the cable protection you already use is enough. Maybe it's scaffold boards. After all, those are quick to put down, and safe enough, right? Wrong. For any organization that has dealt with the dangers of scaffold boards, you learn quickly that what they save in time and effort is severely hurt if an accident happens (which it eventually will). Whether you're working in energy or construction, it's always better to take your time and be safe. You can make up lost time later. You can't make up for a lost limb or life.

What makes Brahman boards the better choice for industrial cable protectors? First, size matters. Brahman Boards can handle large weights (they've been tested up to 125,000 pounds). What about being under pressure? Brahman Boards are tested to 1,000 psi.

They're also easy to work with. They can be placed easily by any small team, with simple-to-use forklift fork pockets included in their design. They have low ground clearance, making them useful across a variety of sites. Additionally, their non-skid surface design and modular design means your employees will appreciate how much safer your work site is after their installation.

If you're looking for industrial cable protectors, your choice is clear. Email info@brahmansystems.com or call 225-637-3700 to get a price quote today for Brahman Boards for your project.

Oil and Gas Industry Needs Cable and Hose Bridges

Every oil and gas refinery in the country should be utilizing the safety and financial benefits of cable and hose bridges in their factories and warehouses. Not only are hose bridges beneficial for employees walking through these work areas, they can protect you from unnecessary OSHA fines and workman’s compensation lawsuits.

Hose bridges allow important hoses, whether they be for hydraulics, cleaning, or transporting oil, to be protected as well as making sure that vehicles and other traffic going through the site and factories will not be impeded.

Transporting oil means that large 18 wheeler trucks are regularly moving through your work site and their extreme weight can become problematic if they have to drive over necessary hoses and cables. Using hose bridges like the ones that Brahman Systems manufactures makes sure that these hoses are protected and that their contents are not disrupted. Oil spills from cracked hoses can mean loss of product, profit and time. So do not use the plastic, aluminum or rubber hose bridges that the competition is trying to sell. Brahman Systems is the only company to use steel reinforced hose protectors. Our product is so innovative that it has been patented. We are the only company that can provide this high standard and we hope that all factories are performing the safest practices possible.

Not only are our hose bridges that best on the market, they are extremely easy to install and once they are in place, they do not need to be maintained. Their structure means that they’ll stay in place and they stay strong for as long as you need them. Brahman Systems can ship your cable protectors anywhere in the country and you can rent them if you are setting up a temporary project.

Give Brahman Systems a call at 225-637-3700 or email us for more information at info@brahmansystems.com.

OSHA Regulations for Outdoor Workers Include Equipment Malfunction

12/14/2014

Working in the outdoors might be the dream for some but that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t comes with some dangers as well. There are numerous incidents of employees being harmed or hurt due to improper oversight of outdoor working conditions, so let us take a look at some of the biggest dangers facing outdoor employees. 

Heat and Cold Illness

American summers are relatively warm no matter where you live in the nation. And working in the heat can be particularly dangerous if employers are not following specific OSHA regulations. Heat illness is common problem for those in the construction and mining fields because they spend long, uninterrupted hours in the heat performing manual labor. Heat exhaustion is particularly worrying because it leads to loss of consciousness and possible falls. Working in the sun for years without proper protection can lead to sunburns and eventual skin cancer. In contrast,  working in the cold can lead to things like hypothermia and cold burn. 


Equipment Malfunction 

When working outside, there are external factors like water, animals, weather and all of these things can contribute to an equipment malfunction. The best thing to do is to protect your tools and equipment with the proper safeguards. For wiring and hoses, use cable and hose protectors so that these crucial elements of your site are not tampered with by traffic or other industrial vehicles. For electric tools, OSHA regulations clearly state the importance of not overloading cable trays, this can lead to the tray breaking down the tray with excess heat and weight, leading to shock hazards and possible electrical fires. Both of which are extremely dangerous for your employers. 



Environmental Hazards 

Issues like lightening and dangerous weather can be dangerous elements for workers to work through. Things like hazardous plants and dangerous animals are other common sights for those who work outside. Be sure that your employees are trained to identify these plants and how to defend themselves from animals. If weather should take a turn for the worse, outdoor employees need to be fitted with the proper equipment and safety measures to withstand the elements until help arrives.
