Appropriate engineering controls | |||
Engineering Measures | Showers Eyewash stations Ventilation systems | ||
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment | |||
Eye/face protection | Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles). If splashes are likely to occur. None required for consumer use. | ||
Skin and body protection | Wear protective gloves and protective clothing. | ||
Respiratory protection | If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection should be worn. Positive-pressure supplied air respirators may be required for high airborne contaminant concentrations. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with current local regulations. | ||
Hygiene Measures | Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. |
