hANDliNG CerAMiC Fiber MATeriAlS
removal of combustion chamber lining:
The combustion chamber insulation in this appliance contains
ceramic fiber material. Ceramic fibers can be converted
to cristobalite in very high temperature applications. The
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has
concluded, “Crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite
from occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans (Group 1).”
Normal operating temperatures in this boiler are below the level
to convert ceramic fibers to cristobalite.
The ceramic fiber material used in this boiler is an irritant; hence
when handling or replacing the ceramic materials it is advisable
that the installer follow these safety guidelines.
1. Avoid breathing dust and contact with skin and eyes.
• Use NIOSH certified dust respirator (N95). This type
of respirator is based on the OSHA requirements for
cristobalite at the time this document was written. Other
types of respirators may be needed depending on the
job site conditions. Current NIOSH recommendations
can be found on the NIOSH website at http://www.cdc.
gov/niosh/homepage.html. NIOSH approved respirators,
manufacturers, and phone numbers are also listed on this
website.
• Wear long-sleeved, loose fitting clothing, gloves, and eye
protection.
