Instruction Manual Safety Data
IM-106-880C, OI April 2017
If airborne fiber or cristobalite concentrations are not known, as minimum protection, use
NIOSH/MSHA approved half face, air purifying respirator with HEPA filter cartridges.
Insulation surface should be lightly sprayed with water before removal to suppress airborne dust.
As water evaporates during removal, additional water should be sprayed on surfaces as needed.
Only enough water should be sprayed to suppress dust so that water does not run onto the floor of
the work area. To aid the wetting process, a surfactant can be used.
After RCF removal is completed, dust suppressing cleaning methods, such as wet sweeping or
vacuuming, should be used to clean the work area. If dry vacuuming is used, the vacuum must be
equipped with HEPA filter. Air blowing or dry sweeping should not be used. Dust suppressing
components can be used to clean up light dust.
Product packaging may contain product residue. Do not reuse except to reship or return
Ceramic Fiber products to the factory.

1. Never drop cylinders or permit them to strike each other violently.
2. Cylinders may be stored in the open, but in such cases, should be protected against extremes of
weather and, to prevent rusting, from the dampness of the ground. Cylinders should be stored
in the shade when located in areas where extreme temperatures are prevalent.
3. The valve protection cap should be left on each cylinder until it has been secured against a wall
or bench, or placed in a cylinder stand, and is ready to be used.
4. Avoid dragging, rolling, or sliding cylinders, even for short distance; they should be moved by
using a suitable handtruck.
5. Never tamper with safety devices in valves or cylinders.
6. Do not store full and empty cylinders together. Serious suckback can occur when an empty
cylinder is attached to a pressurized system.
7. No part of cylinder should be subjected to a temperature higher than 52°C (125°F). A flame
should never be permitted to come in contact with any part of a compressed gas cylinder.
8. Do not place cylinders where they may become part of an electric circuit. When electric arc
welding, precautions must be taken to prevent striking an arc against the cylinder.
