Bricking Solutions has always tried to provide common sense solutions to make your work environment safer and more productive. The Safety Tunnel solution was a result of many reported injuries inside of kiln due to coating falling on workers.

The Problem:

The inside of a kiln after shutdown is a hostile and dangerous environment. When the kiln starts to cool down there is the uncontrollable build up of coating and thermal conditions that create an environment of danger. The coating can shrink or expand and tumble down with hardly any warning. We always recommend removing the coating with a tear out machine prior to going into the kiln. For situations where it is not practical to remove the coating we developed the Safety Tunnel as a safe haven when entering the kiln under coating.

The Solution:

We believe that some protection is much better than no protection and was a primary consideration when we designed the Safety Tunnel. We firmly believe the Safety Tunnel is not the proper answer and that common sense and good judgment should always be exercised. But the Safety Cage may help prevent a minor separation of material from the kiln roof from turning into a major injury or loss of life. We designed the Safety Tunnel to be installed and adjusted in a way that will allow the users to push the roof of the cage near (never against) the bottom of the coating. Then if the coating does break free it will only fall a short distance onto the roof of the Safety Tunnel. It was designed for easy assembly and has handles to assist in moving the tunnel into position.

Justification:

• To offer workers and equipment a safe haven

• A protective measure against injury or loss of life

• When doing small patchwork the Safety Tunnel offers the mason a margin of safety

Features:

• A lightweight, easily assembled Safety Tunnel

• Designed to be carried along while measuring, removing, and installing refractory

• Allows personnel, material and equipment to move safely inside your kiln

• Used for small patch work

• There are two standard sizes; custom sizes can also be supplied

• The frames have legs which are easily adjusted for varying or uneven terrain (adjusts 24" / 61 cm)
