Confined spaces Hazards of confined spaces
Feed bins • Toxic gases (carbon dioxide if wet feed) • Low oxygen environment • Engulfment (by grain) • Entrapment (in the bottom of the bin • Bacteria and moulds 2
Cardboard compactor • Low oxygen environment • Entrapment (in the equipment) • Bacteria and moulds (wet cardboard) • Mechanical parts (hydraulic equipment) 3
Irrigation pump station • Toxic gases • Bacteria and moulds • Drowning • Electrocution 4
Silos • Toxic gases • Low oxygen • Engulfment (by silage) • Bacteria and moulds 5
Manure storage tank • Toxic gases (carbon dioxide if wet feed) • Low oxygen • Bacteria • Drowning • Mechanical parts (agitators, pumps) 6
Conveyor tunnel • Toxic gases • Low oxygen • Bacteria and moulds • Mechanical parts 7
Soil processor • Toxic gases (carbon dioxide) • Low oxygen • Bacteria and mould • Pesticide residues • Mechanical parts 8
Water tank • Low oxygen • Bacteria and moulds • Cleaning chemicals • Drowning 9
Feed mixer • Toxic gases (if not cleaned for a long time) • Bacteria and moulds • Mechanical parts (augers, hydraulics) 10
