Recommended monitoring
procedures
Follow standard monitoring procedures.
8.2. Exposure controls
Appropriate engineering
controls
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Not normally needed.
Skin protection
- Hand protection
Not normally needed.
- Other
Personal protection equipment should be chosen according to the CEN standards and in
discussion with the supplier of the personal protective equipment.
Respiratory protection
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators.
