Exposure Controls & Personal Protective Equipment

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and required safety equipment

Engineering Controls

Protective clothing should be selected specificlly for the working place, depending on concentration and quantity of the hazardous substances handled. The resistance of the protective clothing to chemicals should be ascertained with the respective supplier.

Hand Protection

Required.

Eye Protection

Required.

Respiratory Protection

Wear gas mask. 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.

Skin/Body Protection

Required.

Environmental Exposure Controls

Do not allow to enter sewerage system; risk of explosion!
