Engineering

Ensure good ventilation of the work station.

Hands

Chemically resistant protective gloves. EN 374. Choosing the proper glove is a decision that depends not only on the type of material, but also on other quality features, which differ for each manufacturer. Please follow the instructions related to the permeability and the penetration time provided by the manufacturer. Gloves must be replaced after each use and whenever signs of wear or perforation appear. Do not use : Nitrile rubber. Recommended materials include Chloroprene rubber (CR), Butyl rubber, and Fluoroelastomer (FKM) with permeation 6 (> 480 minutes) and thickness 0,5 mm (CR, Butyl) or 0,4 mm (FKM).

Eyes

Use splash goggles when eye contact due to splashing is possible. EN 166

Respiratory

In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. EN 143. Filter A (colour code: brown).

Skin/Body

Wear suitable protective clothing. EN 340. EN 13034

Environmental

Avoid release to the environment.
