PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
ENGINEERING MEASURES
Provide sufficient ventilation during operations which cause vapor formation.
RESPIRATORY EQUIPMENT
No specific recommendation made, but respiratory protection must be used if the general level exceeds the Recommended
Occupational Exposure Limit Use respiratory equipment with combination filter, type A2/P2.
HAND PROTECTION
Protective gloves must be used if there is a risk of direct contact or splash. The most suitable glove must be chosen in
consultation with the gloves supplier, who can inform about the breakthrough time of the glove material. Nitrile gloves are
recommended.
EYE PROTECTION
Wear approved safety goggles.
OTHER PROTECTION
Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of liquid contact and repeated or prolonged vapor contact.
HYGIENE MEASURES
DO NOT SMOKE IN WORK AREA! Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet.
