Process conditions
Use engineering controls to reduce air contamination to permissible exposure level.
Engineering measures
Provide adequate ventilation. Observe Occupational Exposure Limits and minimise the risk of inhalation of vapours.
Respiratory equipment
No specific recommendation made, but respiratory protection must be used if the general level exceeds the recommended
occupational exposure limit. Use respiratory equipment with gas filter, type AX.
Hand protection
