Anleitung Zusammenfassung
The fumes and gases produced during welding with the normal use of this product are covered by Section V; see it for industrial hygiene information. CAS Number shown is representative for the ingredients listed. All ingredients listed may not be present in all sizes. (1) The term “hazardous” in “Hazardous Materials” should be interpreted as a term required and defined in the Hazards Communication Standard and does not necessarily imply the existence of any hazard. All materials are listed on the TSCA inventory. Ingredients: CAS No. Wt.% TLV mg/m3 PEL mg/m3 Chromium and chromium alloys or compounds (as Cr)*** 7440-47-3 20 0.5(b) 1.0(b) Titanium and/or titanium alloys (as Ti) 12719-90-3 < 5 10* 10* Manganese and/or manganese alloys and compounds (as Mn)*** 7439-96-5 0.5 0.2 1.0(c) Silicon and/or silicon alloys and compounds (as Si) 7440-21-3 0.5 10* 10* Iron 7439-89-6 < 0.5 10* 10* Aluminum and/or aluminum alloys (as Al)*** 7429-90-5 < 0.5 10 15 Carbon steel tube 7439-89-6 80 10* 10* Supplemental Information: (*) Not listed. Nuisance value maximum is 10 milligrams per cubic meter. PEL value for iron oxide is 10 mg/m3. TLV value for iron oxide is 5 milligrams per cubic meter. (***) Subject to the reporting requirements of Sections 311, 312, and 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 and of 40CFR 370 and 372. (b) The OSHA PEL for chromium (VI) is 5 micrograms (0.005 milligrams) per cubic meter. The TLV for water soluble chromium (VI) is 0.05 milligrams per cubic meter and the TLV for insoluble chromium (VI) is 0.01 milligrams per cubic meter. (c) Values are for manganese fume. STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) is 3.0 milligrams per cubic meter. Values are those proposed by OSHA in 1989. Present PEL is 5.0 milligrams per cubic meter (ceiling value). SECTION III - HAZARD DATA Non Flammable; Welding arc and sparks can ignite combustibles and flammable products. See Z49.1 referenced in Section VI. Product is inert, no special handling or spill procedures required. Not regulated by DOT. Rev 11/06b (CONTINUED ON SIDE TWO) Product: Outershield MC-439 Date: 11/1/06 SECTION IV - HEALTH HAZARD DATA Threshold Limit Value: The ACGIH recommended general limit for Welding Fume NOS - (Not Otherwise Specified) is 5 mg/m3. ACGIH-1999 preface states that the TLV-TWA should be used as guides in the control of health hazards and should not be used as fine lines between safe and dangerous concentrations. See Section V for specific fume constituents which may modify this TLV. Threshold Limit Values are figures published by the American Conference of Government Industrial Hygienists. Units are milligrams per cubic meter of air. Effects of Overexposure: Electric arc welding may create one or more of the following health hazards: Fumes and Gases can be dangerous to your health. Common entry is by inhalation. Other possible routes are skin contact and ingestion. Short-term (acute) overexposure to welding fumes may result in discomfort such as metal fume fever, dizziness, nausea, or dryness or irritation of nose, throat, or eyes. May aggravate pre-existing respiratory problems (e.g. asthma, emphysema). Long-term (chronic) overexposure to welding fumes can lead to siderosis (iron deposits in lung) and may affect pulmonary function. Manganese overexposure can affect the central nervous system, resulting in impaired speech and movement. Bronchitis and some lung fibrosis have been reported. Chromates may cause ulceration and perforation of the nasal septum. Liver damage and allergic reactions, including skin rash, have been reported. Chromates contain the hexavalent form of chromium. Hexavalent chromium and its compounds are on the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) and NTP (National Toxicology Program) lists as posing a cancer risk to humans. WARNING: This product contains or produces a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects (or other reproductive harm). (California Health & Safety Code Section 25249.5 et seq). Arc Rays can injure eyes and burn skin. Skin cancer has been reported. Electric Shock can kill. If welding must be performed in damp locations or with wet clothing, on metal structures or when in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling or lying, or if there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with workpiece, use the following equipment: Semiautomatic DC Welder, DC Manual (Stick) Welder, or AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control. Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Call for medical aid. Employ first aid techniques recommended by the American Red Cross. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT give oxygen. IF NOT BREATHING employ CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) techniques. IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, turn off power and follow recommended treatment. In all cases call a physician. SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA Hazardous Decomposition Products: Welding fumes and gases cannot be classified simply. The composition and quantity of both are dependent up...
