Engineering Controls
Flammable liquid. Maintain adequate ventilation at all times. Prevent accumulation of vapours in hollows
or sumps. Eliminate any sources of ignition. Elevated temperature or mechanical action may form
vapours, mists or fumes which may require local exhaust ventilation systems.
Personal Protection Equipment
CLOTHING
:
PVC or rubber apron.
GLOVES
:
PVC or rubber.
EYES
:
Chemical goggles or faceshield to protect eyes.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
: Avoid breathing of vapours/gases. Select and use respirators in
accordance with AS/NZS 1715/1716. When vapours/gases exceed the exposure standards then the use
of a half-face respirator with organic vapour cartridge is recommended. For high concentration use an
atmosphere-supplied, positive pressure demand self-contained or airline breathing apparatus, complying
with the requirements of AS/NZS 1715 is recommended. Filter capacity and respirator type depends on
exposure levels and type of contaminant. If entering spaces where the airborne concentration of a
contaminant is unknown then the use of a Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with positive
pressure air supply complying with AS/NZS 1715 / 1716, or any other acceptable International Standard
is recommended.
