1. Risk Identification: Drawdio Electronic Pencil

Provider STEM TEAM East

Activity

Description

Drawdio Electronic Pencil

The Drawdio is a simple sound synthesiser that uses the conductive properties of pencil

graphite to create different sounds while you draw. It works by completing an electrical

circuit with graphite and the human body. The Drawdio is based on the work of Jay Silver

at the MIT Media Lab in America.

Who will be exposed to the hazards: School pupils and adults taking part in the activity.

Hazard Severity and

Likelihood.

Control measures Rating after control

measures applied.

Soldering medium The Lead Ambassador will speak to Teachers in

charge of each of the school groups to check

whether any child has a known allergy or any

potential risk of working with solder.

The supervision will be 1 adult to 5 pupils. The pupils

are all Yr 10+ so selected for the level of complexity

and manual dexterity needed.

Students will be warned not to touch the hot solder

due to risk of burns.

The room will be well ventilated.

All students will wear safety spectacles throughout

the activity.

All students will be asked to wash their hands

thoroughly after the activity.

A full risk assessment for soldering is included below.

low

Electric Current low The operation of the pencil involves currents of the

order of microAmps passing through the body. This

level of current is negligible and the kit has been

produced commercially and available for sale. There

is no need for the pupil to operate the pencil.

The battery in normal handling will present the same

risk.

If the skin is dry it will offer more resistance so

students will be asked to ensure their hands are dry

when operating the Drawdio.

low

Risk Assessment: Electrical and other forms of Soldering using a heated iron

Hazards

• High temperature

The tip of the iron is at a temperature around 3000C and can cause burns to skin

Components being soldered will be at an elevated temperature for a short while after contact with

the iron which can also cause minor burns and a sudden physical reaction to them which can cause

other problems.

Components should not be wet as contact with molten solder can cause spatter.

• Fumes

The soldering process gives off fumes from flux in the solder and minute quantities of vaporised

solder. These can be harmful in high concentrations or over prolonged periods of exposure. Fuller

details are given in the HSE document 'Solder Fume And You' available at

www.le.ac.uk/eg/safety/risk/solder/solderindex.htm

• Solid solder

Solder is an alloy of soft metals which usually contains an integral resin flux. These will get onto and

into the skin when the wire is being handled and can be harmful.

• Eye & musculo skeletal strain

Soldering for long periods can cause eye strain due to the close nature of the work and strain on the

muscles and limbs from remaining in one position for a long time.

• Electrical faults

Soldering irons need PAT testing as with any other portable equipment but are susceptible to more

strain than most portable equipment. In particular the cable joining the iron to the control station is

susceptible to twisting and pulling strain and can be damaged by the hot iron.

• Housekeeping

An untidy area, especially with paper and plastics on it, increases the risk of causing an accident with

the hot iron.

Reducing Risk

• High Temperatures

Soldering irons must be used with a suitable station which has a suitable holster to rest the iron in

when not immediately needed. The holster must protect users from the hot iron.

When using an iron there is a temptation to continue looking at the work when picking it from the

holster and replacing it. This can lead to dropping it and picking it up by the wrong end which means

users should make a conscious effort to look what they are doing with the iron at all times.

Avoid looking over the work too closely as this increases the risk of the hot iron touching the face

and of inhaling fumes. Instead ensure the work area is well illuminated and using a magnifier if

necessary. The magnifier will not only keep allow the operator to be further from the work but also

put a barrier between them and the hot iron. Illuminated magnifiers are available to purchase.

• Fumes

For casual occasional soldering fumes will not present a significant hazard and no special

precautions are necessary to avoid them.

Where soldering is a frequent activity by one person or by several in a relatively confined area fumes

should be removed either by an effective extractor for the whole area or by local extraction and

filtering at the station. A lab coat may be worn to prevent contamination of clothes from fumes but

if the concentration of fumes is high enough for this to be of concern there will also be a significant

risk from inhalation and an extractor should be employed.

• Solid solder

Normal hygiene procedures should be observed while soldering and immediately afterwards. No

food or drink should be allowed at the soldering station and hands should be well washed before

eating or performing other tasks. The use of disposable gloves may be considered and these should

be available.

• Body strain

Take regular breaks from the work station to rest the body and eyes. Ensure that the body posture is

changed and you are not performing similarly close work during the rest breaks.

• Housekeeping

Keep the work area uncluttered with only necessary items close to the iron. Paper, such as that with

the wiring diagram on it, and plastics, such as enclosures for circuit boards, should be kept away

from the immediate vicinity if possible.

Do not leave the iron switched on when taking a rest break or after the work is finished.

2. Risk Identification: The ARM mbed Robotic Activity

Provider STEM TEAM East / ARM

Activity

Description

The ARM mbed Robotic Activity

ARM, the UK microchip designers, have developed a robot racer that enables pupils to learn

about the need for programming and provides an insight into microelectronics. The

challenge is to drive a robot around a race track. Students will program the robot to

automatically follow the line around the middle of the track.

Who will be exposed to the hazards: School students and adults taking part in the activity.

3. Risk Identification: Napp Pharmaceuticals HPLC Introduction

Provider Napp Pharmaceuticals

Activity

Description

An Introduction to HPLC

This Napp Pharmaceutical activity introduces students to the analytical technique of HPLC –

High Pressure Liquid Chromatography, a highly efficient way of determining the amount of

active chemical in a sample. Students will be given the opportunity to prepare and analyse

samples to determine active components present and test samples to determine if enhanced

performance drugs have been used.

Scientists and of very low concentration.

Students will be handling/diluting liquids which are

mostly water and very low levels of parabens, with

some colour and small amount of preservative

added. This carries a low risk of inhalation and skin

exposure. The samples will be injected into the

HPLC with methanol as the mobile phase. Napp

Scientists will operated the HPLC equipment.

Waste will be stored in sealed solvent waste

containers and removed from the site and disposed

of safely at Napp Pharmaceuticals.

operated by Napp Scientists.

Participants will be required to wear safety

spectacles at all times and disposable gloves will be

available for use.
