R - Rescue Acronym for RACE / What to do in the event of fire?
A - Activate alarm
C - Confine fire
E - Extinguish / Evacuate
P - Pull Pin Acronym for PASS / How to operate extinguisher?
A - Aim Hose
S - Squeeze Handle
S - Sweep from side to side
1. "hands free" = do not touch your face What is the emergency procedure when using an eye wash station?
2. position eyes into the water stream
3. flush for full 15 minutes
Hierarchy of Controls
(most effective to least effective)
- Extremely cold liquids that cause rapid tissue damage What is Cryogens?
(frostbite) on contact.
- Liquified gases can deplete the oxygen in the
laboratory.
DO NOT ENTER the are where oxygen alarm is going off. What do you do when oxygen alarm is going off?
(Oxygen alarms are used where large amount of
cryogenics or inert gases are stored, which can cause
asphyxiation by displacing oxygen)
Proper PPE is critical: When working with cryogen what do you wear?
Goggles/ Face shield & Insulated/ cryo-gloves
, Always secure cylinders to a stable mount & How to store compressed gasses?
* Remove regulators and apply cap when the cylinder is
not in use. ~ Fire safety
Reason: Compressed gas cylinders are and can be
destructive to life and property if mishandled or
damaged.
Must be separated 20 feet apart. How far apart do you store and separate a compressed Oxygen cylinder and a
compressed Flammable gas cylinder (Incompatible Gases) ?
Flammable | Oxidizers &/ Acids What are some examples of incompatible compounds / which should be stored
Acid | Bases separately ?
Organic Acids | Inorganic Acids
Water Reactives | Aqueous Solutions Basic Chemical Segregation & Common Incompatibilities
Nitric Acid & Perchloric Acid
Must be physically separated from all other acids =
Separate Cabinets
Advice -> Use manufacture's labels & SDS to make safe
storage decisions
- Store chemicals on sturdy shelves or in cabinets Chemical Storage "To Do List "
- Segregate chemicals by compatibility
- Be sure to store chemicals in compatible secondary
containers
- Store hazardous materials below eye level
