8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Control Parameters
Exposure Standards (Safe Work Australia)
Tin (metal):
TWA: - ppm / 2 mg/m³
STEL: - ppm / - mg/m³
Tin, organic compounds (as Sn):
TWA: - ppm / 0.1 mg/m³
STEL: - ppm / 0.2 mg/m³
Copper (fume):
TWA: - ppm / 0.2 mg/m³
STEL: - ppm / - mg/m³
Copper, dusts & mists (as Cu):
TWA: - ppm / 1 mg/m³
STEL: - ppm / - mg/m³
Engineering Controls:
Adequate mechanical ventilation to control airborne concentrations below the exposure guidelines/limits.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Respiratory Protection:
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a level which is adequate to protect worker health, use a
Safe Work Australia approved respiratory protection (weld fume respirator or air line respirator). Respiratory protection is
recommended to be worn during welding operations. See Australian Standards AS/NZS 1715 and 1716 for more information.
Eye/Face Protection:
Safety glasses with top and side shields or goggles. See Australian Standards AS 1336 and AS/NZS 1337 for more
information. Contact lenses should not be worn when working with this chemical.
Skin Protection:
Wear gloves that protect from sparks and flame and protective clothing. See Australian Standards AS 2161 and 2919 and
AS/NZS 2210 for more information.
Thermal Hazards:
The molten material can present a significant thermal hazard. Wear safety glasses with top and side shields or goggles and
protective equipment. Keep melting/soldering temperatures as low as possible to minimize generation of fumes.
