Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product

WARNING

This product contains refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). RCF has been classified as a possible human carcinogen. After this product is fired, RCF may, when exposed to extremely high temperature (>1800°F), change into a known human carcinogen. When disturbed as a result of servicing or repair, RCF becomes airborne and, if inhaled, may be hazardous to your health.

AVOID Breathing Fiber Particulates and Dust

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES

Do not remove or replace previously fired RCF (combustion chamber insulation, target walls, canopy gasket, flue cover gasket, etc.) nor 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.

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