Abstract

In the field of plasma technologies a significant portion of the design and developmenttime is devoted to ensure safety. High voltages, currents, temperatures, and pressures encountered among a range of plasma technologies can lead to unnecessary risksfor the people and the environment. There is no method for systematic and easy safety verification of any particular plasma device. The challenge of structuring a universal methodology for any particular plasma device is due to the fact that there are different plasma devices with different specifications and configurations. Although there exist different manuals for safe operation of specific plasma units, as well as the ranges of safe operation, however, in terms of the design for safe operation, there is a lack of comprehensive methodologies for safety design and verification of plasma experimentation. There are risks that stem from the sources of high pressure equipment, vacuum equipment, high voltage and high current equipment. In this work, an approach to risk assessment of plasma devices is demonstrated based on functional modeling, which is used to compare the performance of two case studies in terms of risks and safety breaches, particularly the performance of induction electrode-less fluorescent lamp (IEFL) fixture and a high pressure plasma device. The results of the two cases showed ability to assess risks in different plasma technologies, which made the proposed methodology more relevant for risk assessment and hazard tracking for a range of plasma devices.
