Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Since the use of appropriate technical measures should always take precedence over personal protective equipment, ensure good ventilation at the workplace by effective local suction. When choosing personal protective equipment, ask your chemical suppliers if this is necessary. Personal protective equipment must be CE-marked for compliance with applicable regulations. Provide an emergency shower with a viscoelastic tray.
Handle with gloves. The selected protective gloves must comply with the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the derived EN 374 standard.
Protective face shields and safety goggles according to EN166.
Where risk assessment shows that air-purifying respirators are appropriate, use dust mask type N95 (USA) or type P1 (EN 143). Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate governmental standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).
Choose body protection according to the quantity and concentration of the hazardous substance in the workplace.
