Exposure controls / personal protection
Respiratory protection : Full mask
P3
Hand protection : Glove material: Natural Latex
Break through time: > 480 min
Glove thickness: 0,6 mm
Lapren®706
Remarks: Supplementary note: The specifications are based
on information and tests from similar substances by analogy.
Due to varying conditions ( e.g.temperature or other strains) it
must be considered that the usage of a chemical protective
glove in practice may be much shorter than the permeation
time determined in accordance with EN 374.
standardised conditions according EN 374 the glove
manufacturer reccomends to use the chemical protective glove
in practice not longer than 50% of the recomended permeation
time.
Manufacturer´s directions for use should be observed because
of great diversity of types .
Suitable gloves tested according EN 374 are supplied e.g. from
KCL GmbH, D-36124 Eichenzell, Vertrieb@kcl.de

Skin and body protection : Protective suit
Hygiene measures : Separate rooms are required for washing, showering and
changing clothes.
Keep working clothes separately.
When using do not eat, drink or smoke.
Regular cleaning of equipment, work area and clothing.
Protective measures : The Personal Protective Equipment must be in accordance
with EN standards:respirator EN 136, 140, 149; safety glasses
EN 166; protective suit: EN 340, 463, 468, 943-1, 943-2;
gloves EN 374, safety shoes EN-ISO 20345.
Do not breathe dust.
Take off all contaminated clothing immediately.
Choose body protection in relation to its type, to the
concentration and amount of dangerous substances, and to the
specific work-place.
Recommended preventive skin protection
Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.
