SECTION 4: First aid measures


4.1 Description of first aid measures
General notes
Do not leave affected person unattended. Remove victim out of the danger area. Keep affected person warm, still and covered.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical advice. In case
of unconsciousness place person in the recovery position. Never give anything by mouth. Disconnect and turn off the power. If
the victim is semi- or unconscious, open the airway. If the victim cannot breath, give artificial respiration. If there is no pulse, mas-
sage the chest and apply artificial respiration.

Electrical shock
Disconnect and turn off the power. If the victim is semi- or unconscious, open the airway. If the victim cannot breath, give artifi-
cial respiration. If there is no pulse, massage the chest and apply artificial respiration.

8.2 Exposure controls


Appropriate engineering controls
Use enough ventilation, local exhaust at the arc, or both, to keep the fumes and gases below the TLVs in the worker’s breathing
zone and the general area. Use extra ventilation when welding galvanized plate or coated plate.

Individual protection measures (personal protective equipment)


Eye/face protection

Wear helmet or use face shield with filter lens. As a rule of thumb, start with a shade which is too dark to see the weld zone. Then
go to the next lighter shade which gives sufficient view of the weld zone. Provide protective screens and flash goggles, if neces-
sary, to shield others.

Skin protection
Protective clothing (EN 340).

- hand protection

Welding gloves according to EN12477:2001 and A1:2005 in case of arc welding. For special purposes, it is recommended to
check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves. The ex-
act break through time should be requested at the protective glove manufacturer and must be observed.

- breakthrough times of the glove material


>480 minutes (permeation: level 6).

- other protection measures

Take recovery periods for skin regeneration. Preventive skin protection (barrier creams/ointments) is recommended. Wash
hands thoroughly after handling. Wear head, hand and bodyprotection which help to prevent injury form radiation, sparks and
electric shock. At a m inimum this includes welder's gloves and protective face shield and may include arm protectors, aprons,
hats, shoulder protection as well as dark substantial clothing.
Train the welder not to touch live electrical parts and to insulate himself from work and ground.

Respiratory protection

Use respirable fume respirator or air supplied respirator when welding in confined space or where local exhaust or ventilation
does not keep exposure below TLV. Keep head out of the fumes and gases.

Ear protection

Wear earplugs or earmuffs when using engine driven arc welding machine or pulsed arc welding machine that generates high-
level noise.

Environmental exposure controls


Use appropriate container to avoid environmental contamination. Keep away from drains, surface and ground water.

SECTION 11: Toxicological information


11.1 Information on toxicological effects
Inhalation of welding fumes and gases can be dangerous to your health. The composition and quantity of both are dependent
upon the material being worked, the process, procedures and consumables used.

Classification procedure
The method for classification of the mixture is based on ingredients of the mixture (additivity formula).

Classification according to GHS (1272/2008/EC, CLP)


Acute toxicity
Overexposure to gases, fumes and dusts may inclide irritation of the eyes, lungs, nose and throat. Some toxic gases (associ-
ated with welding) may cause pulmonary edema, asphyxiation and death. Acute overexposure may include signs and symp-
toms such as watery eyes, nose and throat irritation, headache, dizziness, difficulty in breathing, frequent coughing or chest pain.
Exposure to the fluoride ion may cause hypocalcaemia-calcium deficiency in the blood that can result in muscle cramps and in-
flammation and necrosis of mucous membranes.

Summary of evaluation of the CMR properties


Nickel is considered carcinogenic. Long term overexplosure to nickel fumes may also cause pulmonary fibrosis and oedema.
Welding fumes (not otherwise specified) are possibly carcinogenic to humans.

Specific target organ toxicity - repeated exposure


Causes damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure. Nickel is considered carcinogenic. Long term overexplos-
ure to nickel fumes may also cause pulmonary fibrosis and oedema. Overexposure to air contaminants may lead to their accu-
mulation in the lungs, a condition which may be seen as dense areas on chest X-rays. The severity of the change is proportional
to the length of the exposure. The changes may be caused by non-work factors such as smoking, etc. Long term exposure to
welding and allied processes gasses, dusts and fumes may contribute to pulmonary irritation or pneumoconiosis. Overexposure
to manganese compounds may affect the central nervous system, symptoms of which are languor, sleepiness, muscular weak-
ness, emotional disturbances and spastic gait. The effect of manganese on the nervous systeem is irreversible. Inhalation of to
much iron oxide fume over a long time can cause siderosis, sometimes called "iron pigmentation"of the lung, which can be seen
on a cest x-ray but causes little or no disability. Chronic overexposure to iron (>50-100 mg Fe per day) can result in pathological
deposition of iron in body tissues of which are firbrosis of the pancreas, diabetes mellitus and lever cirrhosis. Chronic fluoride ab-
sorption can result in osseous fluor sis, increased radiographic density of the bones and mottling of the teeth. Chromium (in
some forms) is considered carcinogenic. Chromium compounds have a corrosive action on the skin and mucous membranes
and forms lesions on exposed skin and the nasal septum. Liver damage and allergic skin rash have also been reported.

Aspiration hazard
Shall not be classified as presenting an aspiration hazard.
