23
Q

Two objectives of a PPE program?

A

Protect user from hazardous exposure

prevent injury to the user from PPE misuse of malfunction

24
Q

What are APR’s and when to use and not use?

A

Air-purifying respirator. Don’t use in Oxygen deficiency, IDLH, uncharacteristic confined space

25
Q

What is a SCBA and when to use and not use?

A

Self- contained breathing apparatus. Use in an Oxygen deficiency atmosphere.

26
Q

What is a protection Factor and how is it used?

A

It is used to determine the MUC (Maximum use concentration)

27
Q

What are Warning Properties?

A

Odor, Taste, or irritating effects

28
Q

Levels of protection and difference between levels

A

Level A-fully enclosed suit with SCBA
Level B- suit not fully enclosed with SCBA

30
Q

Oxygen deficient atmosphere is?

A

Less than 19.5%

31
Q

What is penetration, degradation, permeation as it applies to CPC?

A

Degradation, result of a chemical reaction between contaminant and protective material. Penetration, due to imperfections in design or construction. Permeation, concentration gradient.

32
Q

Criteria for using measurement devices when sampling?

A

Needs to be accurate and precise.
