Explosion & Pressure Labels

In industries where equipment operates under pressurized conditions, the risk of explosions and pressure-related incidents is a significant concern. Our selection of labels, including "Explosion Hazard" and "Pressure Warning" labels, addresses these potential risks, promoting heightened awareness and effective preventive measures.

OEMs are required to apply explosion and pressure hazard labels on their equipment when manufacturing machinery or devices that operate under conditions where the risk of explosions, leaks, or pressure-related incidents exists. These labels serve as essential communication tools, alerting operators, maintenance personnel, and users to potential risks and promoting heightened safety awareness. Industries such as industrial manufacturing, oil and gas, laboratory research, healthcare, energy generation, and more may require these labels. Equipment like boilers, pressure vessels, pumps, pipelines, autoclaves, and generators could necessitate these labels due to the nature of their operations. Common injuries associated with equipment requiring pressurized hazard labels include severe burns, shrapnel wounds, and impact trauma caused by equipment failure or explosions.

In line with OSHA 1910.145, ANSI Z535, and ISO 3864-2 standards, Clarion Safety’s "Explosion Hazard" and "Pressure Warning" labels are meticulously designed to help you effectively convey safety messages and measures needed to stay safe. These labels incorporate concise text, universally recognized symbols, and attention-grabbing colors to help ensure immediate comprehension of the potential risks. By adhering to these best practices, equipment manufacturers and workplaces maintain compliance and ensure their warnings and instructions are consistent and impactful. The overall goal: enhancing the safety of equipment users and operators.

Machine safety signs and labels play an essential part in risk reduction, and can help you meet OSHA requirements. It’s important to consider the latest ANSI and ISO standards and today’s best practices for safety communication and risk reduction when selecting labels for your application. You can rely on Clarion Safety’s ANSI, ISO, and OSHA warnings expertise for help. We specialize in supplying product manufacturers and workplaces with the most up-to-date, standards compliant labels. In fact, over the past 30+ years, we’ve helped to write the standards you want to meet.
With Clarion Safety label products, you can select from a variety of label format options (multi-symbol and text, symbol only, symbol and text, and wordless formatted labels) as well as symbol options to best fit the potential hazard. Keep in mind that the use of symbols in warnings and instructions is essential to the ISO 3864-2 standards and is encouraged in the ANSI Z535.4 standards. Our labels use internationally recognized, standardized ISO 7010 or ISO 7010-styled symbols.

At Clarion Safety, we understand the importance of safety label durability. Labels need to stand up to your product’s expected environment, such as exposure to UV, high temperatures, or chemicals. Potential accidents – and your company’s liability exposure – depend on your label material choices. We offer the finest adhesives, base materials and overlaminates, including premium quality 3M materials.
Our explosion and pressure hazard safety labels have been developed and tested to withstand abrasive chemical washdowns, water, heat, and strong ultraviolet light. We have a variety of standard material options available, including options for both indoor and outdoor use. If the standard choices that you see don’t meet your requirements, we’re standing by to find a solution; we offer a wide range of custom material options.
