Hand Protection
Suitable examples are gloves of KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, e-mail: vertrieb@kcl.de with the following specification (test according to EN 374): For the permanent contact gloves made of the following materials are suitable: Nitrile rubber, NBR. Recommended thickness of the material: 0.11 mm. Value for the permeation: Level > 480 min. As protection from splashes gloves made of the following materials are suitable: Nitrile rubber, NBR. Recommended thickness of the material: 0.11 mm. Value for the permeation: Level > 480 min. The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the related standard EN374, for example KCL 741 Dermatril L (full contact) KCL 741 Dermatril L (splash contact). The breakthrough times stated above were determined by KCL in laboratory tests acc. to EN374 with samples of the recommended glove types. This recommendation applies only to the product stated in the safety data sheet, supplied by us and for the designated use. When dissolving in or mixing with other substances and under conditions deviating from those stated in EN374 please contact the supplier of CE-approved gloves (e.g. KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Internet: www.kcl.de).
Eye Protection
Tightly sealed goggles.
Respiratory Protection
required when vapours/aerosols are generated. The entrepeneur has to ensure that maintenance, cleaning and testing of respiratory protective devices are carried out according to the instructions of the producer. These measures have to be properly documented.
