Personal Protective Equipment
Personal protective equipment, as defined in
this section, must be worn when working
with this system.
Personal protective equipment is designed to protect personnel from inadvertent risk. The listed
personal protective equipment must be worn regardless of operator or technician level of training and
qualifications.
The minimum personal protective equipment required for operating and maintaining the
GASGUARD® system is dependent on the hazard category of the gas(es) being used. When a gas
meets more than one hazard category, the PPE for the most hazardous category
must
be used. Refer to
the hazard warnings in Section 1.10 for the hazards of the gas(es) being used.
In addition to the personal protective equipment, the following safety equipment is highly
recommended and is required when VERSUM MATERIALS, INC. personnel operate this equipment.
This equipment should be supplied by the customer prior to operating the GASGUARD® system.
Safety shower
Emergency phones
Eye wash
Gas leak detection system for gases to be used (ex: MDA)
The gas leak detection system must warn personnel (through visible and audible alarms located
near the gas cabinet) of a hazardous atmosphere. The gas sensor(s) need to be set up to alarm
at the lowest level of hazard of exposure. Upon activation of an alarm, follow the established
shutdown procedures for your system.
