Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ELECTRIC ARC-WELDING MAY CREATE ONE OR
MORE OF THE FOLLOWING HLTH HAZ:FUMES & GASES CAN BE DANGEROUS TO
YOUR HEALTH. ARC RAYS CAN INJURE EYES & BURN SKIN. ELECTRIC SHOCK
CAN KILL. "SHORT-TERM OVEREXPO S TO WELDING FUMES MAY RESULT IN
DISCOMFORT SUCH AS: DIZZ, NAUS, OR DRYNESS OR IRRIT OF NOSE,
THROAT, (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NOT RELEVANT
Effects of Overexposure:HLTH HAZ:OR EYES, TIGHTNESS IN CHEST, FEVER AND
ALLERGIC REACTIONS, (SEE EXPLO HAZ AND SPILL/LEAK SECTION)."
"LONG-TERM (CHRONIC) OVEREXPOS TO WELDING FUMES MAY LEAD TO
SIDEROSIS (IRON DEPOSIT IN LUNG S) AND IS BELIEVED BY SOME
INVESTIGATORS TO AFFECT PULMONARY FUNCTION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
Eyes:FLUSH EYES WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES . SKIN:FLUSH WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF WATER . INHAL:REMOVE
TO FRESH AIR. SUPPORT BREATHING (GIVE O2/ ARTIFICIAL RESPIRA TION)
. INGEST:CALL MD IMMEDIATELY . EMPLOY FIRST AID TECHNIQUE
RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN RED CROSS.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:USE EXTINGUISHING MEDIA SUITABLE FOR SURROUNDING
FIRES .
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SCBA AND FULL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT .
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:WELDING ARC & SPARKS CAN IGNITE COMBUST &
FLAMMABLES. REFER TO AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS Z49.1 FOR FIRE
PREVENTION DURING USE OF WELDING & ALLIED PROCEDURES.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:TRAIN THE WELDER NOT TO TOUCH LIVE
ELECTRICAL PARTS AND INSULATE HIMSELF FROM WORK AND GROUND. TRAIN
THE WELDER TO KEEP HIS HEAD OUT OF THE FUMES.
Other Precautions:USE EXHAUST SYS TO CLEAR WELDING FUMES.MAKE SURE
INHALED AIR DOES NOT CONTAIN FUME CONSTITUENTS ABOVE PERMISSIBLE
EXPOS LEVELS.FOR ADDN SAFETY INFO SEE AMER STD Z49.1-1983, SAFETY
IN WELDING & CUTTING , & WELDING HANDBOOK, VOL. 1, (ING 15)
Respiratory Protection:USE RESPIRABLE FUME RESPIRATORY OR AIR SUPPLIED
RESPIRATORY WHEN WELDING IN A CONFINED SPACE OR WHERE LOCAL EXHAUST
OR VENTILATION DOES NOT KEEP EXPOSURE BELOW THE RECOMMENDED
EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Ventilation:USE ENOUGH VENT, LOCAL EXHAUST AT ARC, OR BOTH, TO KEEP THE
FUMES AND GASES FORM THE WORKER'S BRTHG ZONE & GENERAL AREA.
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES .
Eye Protection:WEAR HELMENT/USE FSHLD W/FILTER (ING 16)
Other Protective Equipment:ARM PROTECTORS, APRONS, HATS, SHOULDER
PROTECTION, AS WELL AS DARK SUBSTANTIAL CLOTHING.
