When designing natural and artificial lighting in industrial buildings, it is necessary to take into account the increase in illumination of workplaces due to the reflected light from the surfaces of the interiors.
The color finishing of the surfaces of industrial premises should be made taking into account the characteristics of the climate, the technological purpose of the premises, the conditions of visual work, the nature of the lighting in the premises and the requirements of safety and labor protection.
When choosing colors for finishing the premises, you should make a trial painting of the selected tones.
It is recommended to give the painted surfaces a matte texture.
Heated objects (industrial furnaces, etc.) should be painted with heat-resistant light colors of cold tones with a reflection coefficient of 0.3-0.5.
When color finishing equipment, it is necessary to highlight:
- moving equipment (crane cabins, trolleys, electric cars, etc.) - red with black or yellow with black saturated colors;
- moving parts of machine tools (units) - in a color that differs from the basic tone of their color;
- parts of machines and assemblies dangerous with respect to injuries - safety colors (red or orange);
- buttons and control knobs, etc. - safety colors (red, orange or green).
The conditional coloring of the pipeline is allowed for parts of their length, while the joints, valves, bends, service and other devices, etc. should be painted in the corresponding conditional colors.
The surfaces of walls, partitions, structures and parts of industrial premises to be painted must be prepared for painting in accordance with the requirements. Rules for the production and acceptance of work ", and when painting with perchlorovinyl paints and varnishes, also" Instructions for painting building structures with perchlorovinyl paints and varnishes "(CH 24-58).
Materials used for painting must meet the requirements of the relevant standards and specifications.
In order to lengthen the period of preservation of the quality of the color finish of the premises and equipment, measures should be taken to reduce contamination of the surfaces of the premises and equipment. The color finish of the surfaces of the room and equipment should be periodically restored.
In building designs, it is necessary to provide devices for access to sections of walls and ceilings, the painting (cleaning) of which should be periodically renewed.
