Protective equipment
Appropriate engineering Provide adequate ventilation. As this product contains ingredients with exposure limits,
controls process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls should be used to
keep worker exposure below any statutory or recommended limits, if use generates dust,
fumes, gas, vapour or mist.
Eye/face protection Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates
eye contact is possible. The following protection should be worn: Wear chemical splash
goggles. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should comply with
European Standard EN166.
Hand protection The most suitable glove should be chosen in consultation with the glove
supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information about the breakthrough time of the glove
material. The selected gloves should have a breakthrough time of at least 4 hours.
Chloroprene rubber. Neoprene. Nitrile rubber. Viton rubber (fluoro rubber). Polyethylene.
Thickness: > 35 mm To protect hands from chemicals, gloves should comply with European
Standard EN374.
Other skin and body Wear appropriate clothing to prevent any possibility of liquid contact and repeated or
protection prolonged vapour contact.
Hygiene measures When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating,
smoking and using the toilet. Remove contaminated clothing and protective equipment before
entering eating areas. Eye wash facilities and emergency shower must be available when
handling this product.
Respiratory protection Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk
assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible. Ensure all respiratory protective
equipment is suitable for its intended use and is ‘CE’-marked. If ventilation is inadequate,
suitable respiratory protection must be worn. Gas filter, type A EN 136/140/141/145/143/149
