INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLER AND SERVICE ENGINEER.
Under Section 6 of The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, we are required to provide information on substances hazardous to
health.
REFRACTORY CERAMIC FIBRE
This product uses insulation material containing Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract, consequently, it makes
sense to take care when handling these articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum.
To ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing we recommend
that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust accumulated in and around the boiler before and after working on the boiler.
When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty polythene
bags, clearly labelled as RCF waste. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed
for the disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend you follow
the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
INSULATION PADS, GLASSYARN.
These can cause irritation to skin, eyes and the respiratory tract. If you have a history of skin complaint you may be susceptible to
irritation. High dust levels are usual only if the material is broken. Normal handling should not cause discomfort, but follow normal
good hygiene and wash your hands before eating, drinking or going to the lavatory. If you do suffer irritation of the eyes or severe
irritation to the skin seek medical attention.
THERMOSTATS
These contain very small amounts of xylene in the sealed phial and capillary. If broken, under normal circumstances the fluid does
not cause a problem, but in case of skin contact, wash with cold water. If swallowed drink plenty of water and seek medical attention
CUT-OFF DEVICES
These contain activated charcoal and a very small amount of chlorodifluormethane in the sealed phial and capillary. If broken, under
normal circumstances the fluid does not cause a problem. If there is irritation to the eyes or skin then seek medical attention.
Spare Parts
REMEMBER, When replacing a part on this appliance, use only spare parts that you can be assured conform to the safety and
performance specification that we require. Do not use reconditioned or copy parts that have not been clearly authorised by Hepworth
Heating Ltd.
