Breathing Hazards
Introduction
The lubricants used on the moving parts of the machine contain chemicals that
may be harmful if contacted directly or for a prolonged period of time. Refer to
the manufacturer MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for information and safety
precautions concerning their products and system exhaust specifications.
Safety
To ensure personal safety and avoid equipment damage, observe the following:
Respirator
All operators should be provided with an NIOSH or MSHA approved Respirator to
provide effective protection from airborne residue resulting from certain
saponifiers, defoamers, descalers, cleaning solvents or other chemicals used
during operation.
CAUTION
Noxious fumes are created during the normal heating process of reflow soldering.
The gases and vapors emitted from the solder and flux are contained in the reflow
chamber and should be avoided. Inhaling noxious vapors may cause headaches,
eye redness, stomach aches and breathing problems.
