Additional information for system design:
No particular measures required.
Respiratory protection:
Dust mask, P2 particle filter.
Hand protection:
For shorttime contact (e.g. as protection against splashes) protective gloves made from polychloroprene with an
inner layer of cotton (material thickness > 1.0 mm, break through time > 480 min) are recommended according
to EN 374.
Manufacturer e.g. German company KCL, type Tricopren 723.
In the case of longer and repeated contact please note that in practice the penetration times may be considerably
shorter than those determined according to EN 374. The protective gloves must always be checked for their
suitability for use at the specific workplace (e.g. mechanical and thermal stress, product compatibility, antistatic
effects, etc.). The gloves must be replaced immediately at the first signs of wear and tear. The information
provided by the manufacturers and given in the relevant trade association regulations for industrial safety must
always be observed. We recommend that a hand care plan is drawn up in cooperation with a glove manufacturer
and the trade association in accordance with the local operating conditions.
