Important Product Safety Information

Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product

Warning:

The Repair Parts list designates parts that contain refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). RCF has been classified as a possible human carcinogen. When exposed to temperatures about 1805°F, such as during direct flame contact, RCF changes into crystalline silica, a known carcinogen. When disturbed as a result of servicing or repair, these substances become airborne and, if inhaled, may be hazardous to your health.

AVOID Breathing Fiber Particulates and Dust

Precautionary Measures:

Do not remove or replace RCF parts or attempt any service or repair work involving RCF without wearing the following protective gear:

1.A National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) approved respirator

2.Long sleeved, loose fitting clothing

3.Gloves

4.Eye Protection

Take steps to assure adequate ventilation.

Wash all exposed body areas gently with soap and water after contact.

Wash work clothes separately from other laundry and rinse washing machine after use to avoid contaminating other clothes.

Discard used RCF components by sealing in an airtight plastic bag. RCF and crystalline silica are not classified as hazardous wastes in the United States and Canada.

First Aid Procedures:

If contact with eyes: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation persists.

If contact with skin: Wash affected area gently with soap and water. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation persists.

If breathing difficulty develops: Leave the area and move to a location with clean fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention if breathing difficulties persist.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water. Seek immediate medical attention.
