RIEGLER SAFETY
SAFETY AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN COMPRESSED AIR TECHNOLOGY
With our product range RIEGLER SAFETY, you make your compressed air applications safer and more efficient – and thereby even better.
PRIORITIZE SAFETY
Out of over 800,000 reported workplace accidents in Germany in 2021, approximately 80,000 can be attributed to compressed air. This relatively high number can be explained, on the one hand, by the widespread use of compressed air in almost every production facility and workshop, similar to electrical power.
On the other hand, experts regularly note that many accidents could have been prevented if compressed air systems or their individual components had been up to date and if a few, but crucial, safety aspects had been considered.
In addition to the personal suffering of the injured employees, the disregard of legal regulations regarding occupational safety results in significant costs: production downtime costs due to first aid amount to billions – and compressed air is responsible for approximately 10% of these costs!
The protection and safety of people at their workplace are important to us. Thus, safety in handling compressed air is a matter of the heart for us, and we contribute our part to reduce workplace accidents. Furthermore, it is important for us to raise awareness among users about handling compressed air, reduce downtime and prevention costs, and decrease energy consumption. We achieve this by optimizing compressed air workstations and compressed air networks in general.
The responsibility for safety in workplaces lies with the employers. They are responsible for issuing instructions for the proper handling of compressed air, as well as providing safe machines, equipment, and tools.
Don't wait for an accident to happen – prioritize safety and energy efficiency with products from the SAFETY range by RIEGLER.
Summarizing the commonly occurring hazards in handling compressed air:
- Hearing damage caused by noise generated from exhaust air from blowguns, hose couplings, and/or valves.
- The so-called whip lash effect, i.e., recoil when disconnecting single-stage coupling systems.
- In connection with the disconnection of coupling systems, there is an exhaust air noise that is not negligible. It is often so loud that it pushes the human hearing to its pain threshold.
- One of the classic dangers: Hoses lying on the ground become a daily tripping hazard.
- Very high potential dangers include bursting hose lines and exploding pressure vessels. In these situations, human life is more at risk than we might initially realize.
- Life-threatening embolisms can result from the entry of compressed air or foreign objects into open skin areas or wounds.

EXCERPT FROM THE RIEGLER SAFETY PRODUCT RANGE
MAINTENANCE DEVICES
.
Maintenance devices from the SAFETY category protect man and machine from unauthorised pressures, from manipulation
and ensure compressed air quality.
.
INLINE PRESSURE REGULATOR
AND FILTER
Fixed pressure regulator and filter directly
in the line Tamper-proof integration
makes this category in SAFETY makes
this category possible for you.
.
PRESSURE GAUGES
.
Pressure gauges in safety design protect
the user and the machine from
uncontrolled leakage of the uncontrolled
escape of the medium through the sight glass.
SAFETY BALL VALVES
.
Ball valves in safety design have depending
on requirements, a function for shut-off
and or a venting function for energy release
of the subsequent application.
.
HOSE RUPTURE VALVES
.
Hose rupture valves from the SAFETY
category protect the user and machines
machines in the event of bursting or
loosening of the hose from the "whiplash effect"..
SAFETY VALVES
.
Safety valves protect secured containers
or areas from uncontrolled overpressure,
thus preventing damage caused by
excessive pressure that is not permissible
for that area or even preventing bursting.
SAFETY AND VENTING
COUPLINGS
The safety couplings included in the
SAFETY category have different protective
functions. From noise reduction to
preventing the "whiplash effect" through
to distinctiveness..
SILENCERS
.
Silencers reduce noise pollution in exhaust
applications and can therefore protect or
support the user from high noise levels.
.
.
HOSE AND CABLE REELS,
HOSE HOLDERS, HOSES
Hose and cable reels, as well as hose
holders support the user reduce
tripping hazards and ensure a tidy
working environment. Hoses in bright,
eye-catching colours can also warn of
a tripping hazard.
.
SAFETY BLOW GUNS
AND ACCESSORIES
Blow guns in the SAFETY category have
various safety features. Blow guns with
low-noise multi-channel nozzles for
almost every range of applications.
Blow guns with fixed adjustable flow rate
or baypass valve to protect the user,
when the nozzle is blocked.
