| SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
CONTROL PARAMETERS:
OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (OEL):
INGREDIENT DATA: NOT AVAILABLE
EXPOSURE CONTROLS:
APPROPRIATE ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
ENGINEERING CONTROLS ARE USED TO REMOVE A HAZARD OR PLACE A BARRIER BETWEEN
THE WORKER AND THE HAZARD. WELL-DESIGNED ENGINEERING CONTROLS CAN BE HIGHLY
EFFECTIVE IN PROTECTING WORKERS AND WILL TYPICALLY BE INDEPENDENT OF WORKER
INTERACTIONS TO PROVIDE THIS HIGH LEVEL OF PROTECTION.
THE BASIC TYPES OF ENGINEERING CONTROLS ARE:
PROCESS CONTROLS WHICH INVOLVE CHANGING THE WAY A JOB ACTIVITY OR PROCESS
IS DONE TO REDUCE THE RISK.
ENCLOSURE AND/OR ISOLATION OF EMISSION SOURCE WHICH KEEPS A SELECTED HAZARD
'PHYSICALLY' AWAY FROM THE WORKER AND VENTILATION THAT STRATEGICALLY 'ADDS'
AND 'REMOVES' AIR IN THE WORK ENVIRONMENT. VENTILATION CAN REMOVE OR DILUTE
AN AIR CONTAMINANT IF DESIGNED PROPERLY. THE DESIGN OF A VENTILATION SYSTEM
MUST MATCH THE PARTICULAR PROCESS AND CHEMICAL OR CONTAMINANT IN USE.
EMPLOYERS MAY NEED TO USE MULTIPLE TYPES OF CONTROLS TO PREVENT EMPLOYEE
OVEREXPOSURE.
LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION IS REQUIRED WHERE SOLIDS ARE HANDLED AS POWDERS
OR CRYSTALS; EVEN WHEN PARTICULATES ARE RELATIVELY LARGE, A CERTAIN
PROPORTION WILL BE POWDERED BY MUTUAL FRICTION.
EXHAUST VENTILATION SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO PREVENT ACCUMULATION AND
RECIRCULATION OF PARTICULATES IN THE WORKPLACE.
IF IN SPITE OF LOCAL EXHAUST AN ADVERSE CONCENTRATION OF THE SUBSTANCE IN
AIR COULD OCCUR, RESPIRATORY PROTECTION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. SUCH
PROTECTION MIGHT CONSIST OF:
(A) PARTICLE DUST RESPIRATORS, IF NECESSARY, COMBINED WITH AN ABSORPTION
CARTRIDGE;
(B) FILTER RESPIRATORS WITH ABSORPTION CARTRIDGE OR CANISTER OF THE RIGHT
TYPE;
(C) FRESH-AIR HOODS OR MASKS
BUILD-UP OF ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE ON THE DUST PARTICLE, MAY BE PREVENTED
BY BONDING AND GROUNDING.
POWDER HANDLING EQUIPMENT SUCH AS DUST COLLECTORS, DRYERS AND MILLS MAY
REQUIRE ADDITIONAL PROTECTION MEASURES SUCH AS EXPLOSION VENTING.
AIR CONTAMINANTS GENERATED IN THE WORKPLACE POSSESS VARYING 'ESCAPE'
VELOCITIES WHICH, IN TURN, DETERMINE THE 'CAPTURE VELOCITIES' OF FRESH
CIRCULATING AIR REQUIRED TO EFFICIENTLY REMOVE THE CONTAMINANT.
TYPE OF CONTAMINANT AIR SPEED
DIRECT SPRAY, SPRAY PAINTING IN SHALLOW 1-2.5 M/S
BOOTHS, DRUM FILLING, CONVEYER LOADING, (200-500 FT/MIN)
CRUSHER DUSTS, GAS DISCHARGE (ACTIVE
GENERATION INTO ZONE OF RAPID AIR MOTION)
GRINDING, ABRASIVE BLASTING, TUMBLING, HIGH 2.5-10 M/S
SPEED WHEEL GENERATED DUSTS (RELEASED AT HIGH (500-2000 FT/MIN)
INITIAL VELOCITY INTO ZONE OF VERY HIGH RAPID
AIR MOTION).
WITHIN EACH RANGE THE APPROPRIATE VALUE DEPENDS ON:
LOWER END OF THE RANGE UPPER END OF THE RANGE
1: 1:
ROOM AIR CURRENTS MINIMAL OR FAVOURABLE DISTURBING ROOM AIR CURRENTS
TO CAPTURE
2:
CONTAMINANTS OF LOW TOXICITY OR OF 2:
NUISANCE VALUE ONLY CONTAMINANTS OF HIGH TOXICITY
3: INTERMITTENT, LOW PRODUCTION. 3: HIGH PRODUCTION, HEAVY USE
4: 4:
LARGE HOOD OR LARGE AIR MASS IN MOTION SMALL HOOD-LOCAL CONTROL ONLY
SIMPLE THEORY SHOWS THAT AIR VELOCITY FALLS RAPIDLY WITH DISTANCE AWAY
FROM THE OPENING OF A SIMPLE EXTRACTION PIPE. VELOCITY GENERALLY DECREASES
WITH THE SQUARE OF DISTANCE FROM THE EXTRACTION POINT (IN SIMPLE CASES).
THEREFORE THE AIR SPEED AT THE EXTRACTION POINT SHOULD BE ADJUSTED,
ACCORDINGLY, AFTER REFERENCE TO DISTANCE FROM THE CONTAMINATING SOURCE.
THE AIR VELOCITY AT THE EXTRACTION FAN, FOR EXAMPLE, SHOULD BE A MINIMUM
OF 4-10 M/S (800-2000 FT/MIN) FOR EXTRACTION OF CRUSHER DUSTS GENERATED
2 METRES DISTANT FROM THE EXTRACTION POINT. OTHER MECHANICAL
CONSIDERATIONS, PRODUCING PERFORMANCE DEFICITS WITHIN THE EXTRACTION
APPARATUS, MAKE IT ESSENTIAL THAT THEORETICAL AIR VELOCITIES ARE MULTIPLIED
BY FACTORS OF 10 OR MORE WHEN EXTRACTION SYSTEMS ARE INSTALLED OR USED.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
GLOVES
FACE SHIELD
CHEMICAL GOGGLES
FULL SUIT
BOOTS
EYE AND FACE PROTECTION:
FACE SHIELD IS RECOMMENDED. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE SHIELDS
(OR GOGGLES).
SKIN PROTECTION: SEE HAND PROTECTION BELOW
HANDS/FEET PROTECTION: WEAR APPROPRIATE CHEMICAL RESISTANT GLOVES.
BODY PROTECTION: SEE OTHER PROTECTION BELOW
OTHER PROTECTION: WEAR APPROPRIATE CHEMICAL RESISTANT CLOTHING.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
PARTICULATE. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:001, ANSI Z88 OR
NATIONAL EQUIVALENT)
RESPIRATORS MAY BE NECESSARY WHEN ENGINEERING AND ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS
DO NOT ADEQUATELY PREVENT EXPOSURES.
THE DECISION TO USE RESPIRATORY PROTECTION SHOULD BE BASED ON PROFESSIONAL
JUDGMENT THAT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT TOXICITY INFORMATION, EXPOSURE MEASUREMENT
DATA, AND FREQUENCY AND LIKELIHOOD OF THE WORKER'S EXPOSURE - ENSURE USERS
ARE NOT SUBJECT TO HIGH THERMAL LOADS WHICH MAY RESULT IN HEAT STRESS OR
DISTRESS DUE TO PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (POWERED, POSITIVE FLOW,
FULL FACE APPARATUS MAY BE AN OPTION).
PUBLISHED OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS, WHERE THEY EXIST, WILL ASSIST IN
DETERMINING THE ADEQUACY OF THE SELECTED RESPIRATORY PROTECTION. THESE
MAY BE GOVERNMENT MANDATED OR VENDOR RECOMMENDED.
CERTIFIED RESPIRATORS WILL BE USEFUL FOR PROTECTING WORKERS FROM INHALATION
OF PARTICULATES WHEN PROPERLY SELECTED AND FIT TESTED AS PART OF A COMPLETE
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM.
WHERE PROTECTION FROM NUISANCE LEVELS OF DUSTS ARE DESIRED, USE TYPE N95
(US) OR TYPE P1 (EN143) DUST MASKS. USE RESPIRATORS AND COMPONENTS TESTED
AND APPROVED UNDER APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENT STANDARDS SUCH AS NIOSH (US) OR
CEN (EU)
USE APPROVED POSITIVE FLOW MASK IF SIGNIFICANT QUANTITIES OF DUST BECOMES
AIRBORNE.
TRY TO AVOID CREATING DUST CONDITIONS.
CLASS P2 PARTICULATE FILTERS ARE USED FOR PROTECTION AGAINST MECHANICALLY
AND THERMALLY GENERATED PARTICULATES OR BOTH.
P2 IS A RESPIRATORY FILTER RATING UNDER VARIOUS INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS,
FILTERS AT LEAST 94% OF AIRBORNE PARTICLES SUITABLE FOR:
RELATIVELY SMALL PARTICLES GENERATED BY MECHANICAL PROCESSES EG. GRINDING,
CUTTING, SANDING, DRILLING, SAWING.
SUB-MICRON THERMALLY GENERATED PARTICLES E.G. WELDING FUMES, FERTILIZER
AND BUSHFIRE SMOKE.
BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE AIRBORNE PARTICLES UNDER SPECIFIED INFECTION CONTROL
APPLICATIONS E.G. VIRUSES, BACTERIA, COVID-19, SARS
