Exposure controls / personal protection

Engineering measures

All personal protective equipment should be based on a risk assessment. Consult a Environment Health Safety expert if necessary.

Engineering controls should be used as the primary means to control possible exposures. Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep exposure levels below recommended exposure limits.

Personal protective equipment

Eye protection: Tightly fitting safety goggles

Hand protection: Nitrile rubber

Take note of the information given by the producer concerning permeability and break through times, and of special workplace conditions (mechanical strain, duration of contact). Impervious gloves

Skin and body protection: closed work clothing, chemical resistant apron, coat or coverall

Respiratory protection:

Engineering controls should always be the primary method of controlling exposures.

If respiratory protective equipment is needed for certain activities, the type as well as the corresponding protection factor will depend upon the risk assessment and air concentrations, hazards, physical and warning properties of substances present.

Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/ national standards.

Respirator with a vapour filter

ABEK
