A

Gaseous state of a substance which is normally a liquid or solid at room
temperature.

21
Q

what is a Atmosphere Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health IDLH

A

The concentration of a contaminant which can produce an immediate irreversible
debilitating effect on health, or which can cause death.

22
Q

what are the controls used for air contaminants

A

Engineering Controls:

23
Q

what engineering controls are used

A

Ventilation Systems

  • Supply
  • Exhaust
24
Q

ventilation systems supply can be used in what environments

A

NBC / CBR

25
Q

what are examples of ventilation exhaust systems

A

Forced Air Systems (Laboratory Hoods in Medical/Dental spaces)

Damage Control Gear (Red Devil Blowers)

26
Q

what are the CO responsibilities of the CO IRT Gas Free Medical Surveillance and Gas Free Physical Exam

A

Establish a comprehensive gas free engineering program adequately staffed with
personnel trained, qualified and certified to perform gas free engineering
services.

Ensure Compliance with program

27
Q

what are the safety officer responsibilities IRT Gas Free Medical Surveillance and Gas Free Physical Exam

A

28
Q

what are the safety officer responsibilities of the medical department representative IRT Gas Free Medical Surveillance and Gas Free Physical Exam

A 
Advise the GFE (Gas Free Engineer) regarding medical aid in the event there is
a victim(s) in the space and continues aid once the victim(s) is removed

Monitor the victim’s use of other emergency breathing equipment and advise
the GFE when replacement required.

Utilize Medical Matrix to perform physical exams depending on exposure.

29
Q

The three basic types of respirators

A

Air purifying

atmosphere supplied air

Self Contain Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).

30
Q

How do air purifying respirators work

A

Remove air contaminants by filtering, or absorbing them as the air passes
through the cartridge.

31
Q

air purifying respirators need what amount of oxygen

A

19.5% by volume

32
Q

what air purifying respirators provides a higher degree of protection

A

full-face piece

33
Q

what are usage types of Air-purifying respirators

A

single-use (e.g., disposable) or

reusable.

34
Q

air purifying respirators are effective only when used with the appropriate what

A

cartridges, filters, and

pre-filters for the air contaminants present

35
Q

what type of Air-purifying respirators there

A

non-powered or powered

36
Q

do surgical mask provide protection against air contaminants

A

No

37
Q

military gas mask should never be used in place of what

A

air purifying respirator

38
Q

Air-purifying respirators are subdivided by what

A

contaminant they protect against

39
Q

what are the types of Air-purifying respirators

A

Particulate air-purifying respirators

Gas and vapor air-purifying respirators

Combination cartridges and canisters

Pre-filters.

40
Q

how do atmosphere supplying respirators protect the user

A

by supplying oxygen to ensure maintenance of life

41
Q

what are specific incidences for use of atmosphere supplying respirators

A

Used when the contaminant has no warning property

The contaminant’s concentration is too high to use an air-purifying respirator

Used when an environment is Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH).

42
Q

what are the two types of Atmosphere-Supplying Respirators

A

supplied-air respirators

self-contained breathing apparatuses

43
Q

what are characteristics of Supplied-air Respirators

A

Hose mask respirators

Consist of a face piece, breathing tube, harness, and large-diameter,
thick- wall, non-kinking, air-supply hose.

Air may be supplied by a blower or the user may simply draw the air
into the hose with each breath.

44
Q

why are Supplied-air Respirators being removed form the fleet

A

because it offers no advantage over the

air- line respirator.

45
Q

Air-line respirators and SCBAs can be subdivided into what three type

A

demand

pressure demand

continuous flow

46
Q

what are the characteristics of demand Air-line respirators

A

Available only with a face piece, it supplies air to the user on
demand (inhalation) which creates a negative pressure within the
face piece.

47
Q

what are the characteristics of Pressure Demand Air-line respirators

A

Available only with a face-piece. It maintains a continuous positive
pressure within the face-piece, thus preventing contaminant
leakage into the face-piece

48
Q

what are the characteristics of Continuous Flow: Air-line respirators

A

Available with a face-piece, hood, helmet, or suit, continuous flow
regulators provide a continuous flow of air, which maintains a
positive pressure within the respirator, thus preventing inward
contaminant leakage

49
Q

what is the maximum length of hose allowed from a compressor or air fitting to the respirator

A

300 feet
