Zorluk: KolayPersonal Protective Equipment (PPE)

While servicing an automotive lead-acid battery, a technician needs to inspect and top off the corrosive sulfuric acid electrolyte. Which TWO of the following items of personal protective equipment (PPE) are required to safely perform this task?

  1. Chemical splash-resistant safety gogglesCevap
  2. Heavy-duty acid-resistant rubber glovesCevap
  3. C
    Standard open-weave cotton work gloves
  4. D
    Dark shaded oxy-fuel cutting goggles

Cevap

Chemical splash-resistant safety goggles and heavy-duty acid-resistant rubber gloves
Handling sulfuric acid battery electrolyte requires chemical-impermeable protection. Chemical splash-resistant goggles shield the eyes from liquid splashes via an enclosed seal, while heavy-duty acid-resistant rubber gloves prevent corrosive acid from contacting and burning the skin.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the specific hazard associated with servicing automotive battery electrolyte.
The primary hazard is corrosive sulfuric acid liquid splash, which causes severe chemical burns to skin and eyes.
PPE selection must directly mitigate the specific physical and chemical hazards of the task.
2
Select the appropriate barrier PPE for eyes and hands against corrosive liquid chemicals.
Sealed chemical splash goggles and impermeable acid-resistant rubber gloves provide the required liquid barriers.
Standard impact glasses and absorbent cotton gloves fail to provide liquid-tight chemical protection.
