SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION to = <br /> W D <br /> 8.1 Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation to maintain levels below m <br /> STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) of 1 ppm as (n <br /> chlorine. o a <br /> 8.2 Personal Protection: _.► <br /> 8.2.1 Eye/ Face Protection: Wear safety glasses, goggles or face shield to Cl) IV <br /> prevent eye contact. m 01 <br /> 8.2.2 Skin Protection: Wear appropriate chemical resistant protective 1 <br /> clothing and chemical resistant gloves to prevent U N <br /> skin contact. Butyl rubber, Neoprene, or Nitrile 0 <br /> Gloves should be worn when handling this Z 0 <br /> material. Wear chemical resistant clothing such as P <br /> a rubber apron when splashing may occur. Rinse o C <br /> immediately if skin is contaminated. Remove rn <br /> contaminated clothing promptly and wash before <br /> reuse. Clean protective equipment before reuse. _ <br /> 8.2.3 Respiratory Protection: Avoid breathing vapor or mist. When airborne <br /> exposure limits are exceeded (see below), use <br /> NIOSH approved respiratory protection equipment O <br /> appropriate to the material and/or its components. n <br /> Full facepiece equipment is recommended and, if = <br /> used, replaces need for face shield and chemical f <br /> goggles. For emergency and other conditions 0 <br /> where exposure limit may be significantly <br /> exceeded, use an approved full face positive- <br /> pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus. m <br /> 8.2.4 Other Safety Equipment: Eye wash facility and emergency shower should (n <br /> be in close proximity.
