Technology Acceptance and Regulatory Standards
OSHA
Natural ground-level concentrations of ozone (O
3
) are typically 0.030ppm to 0.070ppm and may be higher
than 0.100ppm in urban areas.
OSHA 24 hour average exposure limit 0.050ppm
OSHA 8 hour average exposure limit 0.100ppm
OSHA Short-term exposure limit 0.300ppm
EMS is effective as a disinfectant and sterilizing agent at levels of 50% or below of that specified by OSHA
for 24-hour exposure levels.
The EMS-3000 Series System, as activated by an Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician, operates at
controlled ozone levels well below the thresholds dictated by OSHA.
FDA
FDA issued (June 26, 2001) a GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) statement as to the use and application
of ozone in food processing.
EPA
EPA has standards for assuring that any equipment being sold as an ozone generator for use in the food
processing arena have an EPA Establishment Number and that the entity files an annual report disclosing
manufacturing and marketing of products in the U.S. and elsewhere.
Each piece of equipment bears the applicable EPA Establishment Number based on the physical site where
the purifier was manufactured.
USDA
USDA followed the FDA publication in December 2001 with its own regulation allowing for uses in meats
and poultry.
Organically Approved
The EMS-3000 Series System meets all organically approved regulations.
