Personal Respiratory Protection Information
The necessary respiratory protection depends upon many factors including
duration/level of exposure and conditions of use. In general, exposure to
the organic chemicals contained in this product may not require the use of
respiratory protection if used in well ventilated areas. In restricted
ventilated areas a NIOSH approved chemical cartridge respirator may be
required. The necessary requirement is to provide local ventilation in
sufficient volume so as to maintain exposures below permissible exposure
limits.
To ensure the safety of any on-site refinishing operation, it is necessary
to determine how much of the applied material escapes into the surrounding
atmosphere, and to further determine the volume of fresh air available into
which this material can escape. Since the No. 2 Process handgun is essentially
100% efficient, no solid residue exists to be taken into account. Only the
solvent component of the material is released by evaporation into the air at
the time of application. The effect of this material must be considered.
A typical on-site application might involve the refinishing of 15 four
drawer file cabinets in a space which is 20 feet by 20 feet with a 10 foot
ceiling (4,000 cubic feet). This would require approximately 1 gallon of paint
applied at a rate of about one-half gallon per hour.
Our coating mixture contains ~59% solvent by volume. One gallon of this
type of solvent expands upon evaporation to approximately 27 cubic feet of
vapor. Thus, the use of 1.03 gallons of paint could potentially generate 16.5
cubic feet of solvent vapor (1.03 X 0.59 X 27 = 16.5).
If the volume of air where application takes place is 4000 cubic feet as
described. Then the solvent concentration in the room without the
addition of any ventilation or outside air is 0.41% by volume (16.5/4,000 X
100). This is well below the 1% LEL recorded for the most
hazardous normal paint solvents. In this case, a safety factor of 2.4 exists.
If the air in the room is changed only once each hour (66 cubic feet per
minute of fresh air is introduced), an additional safety factor of two is
provided. As most buildings in which on-site refinishing takes place are air
conditioned or have some other manner of introducing ventilation, it can be
reasonably assumed that providing for adequate ventilation is not a common
problem.
It should be noted that even with this low concentration of solvent in the
air, the smell of the paint will still be very noticeable. Especially, since
it is not an everyday odor in office buildings. Many people smell the odor of
the paint and incorrectly assume a hazard exists. Regardless, it is generally
most convenient for the customer to have the work performed after normal
business hours so as the smell dissipates overnight.
