Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Protective gloves Glove material Breakthrough time Glove thickness EU standard Glove comments Natural rubber - 360 minutes - EN 374 (minimum requirement) Nitrile rubber PVC Butyl rubber - 240 minutes 0.35 mm Inspect gloves before use. Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves. (Refer to manufacturer/supplier for information) Ensure gloves are suitable for the task: Chemical compatability, Dexterity, Operational conditions, User susceptibility, e.g. sensitisation effects, also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion. Remove gloves with care avoiding skin contamination.
Goggles (European standard - EN 166)
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate certified respirators. Large scale/emergency use Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 136 approved respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or other symptoms are experienced Recommended Filter type: Particle filter Small scale/Laboratory use Maintain adequate ventilation Recommended half mask:- Valve filtering: EN405; or; Half mask: EN140; plus filter, EN 141
