Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a)
Use.
It is recommended that platforms be so erected in a free
					 space at least equal in surface to a quarter of the floor space of the
					 building. It is recommended to leave between platforms and the outer walls
					 either a free space or a space covered by slats 2 to 3 feet wide, which is
					 calculated by adding the area of this space to the free space.
(b)
Distance.
The distance
					 of the larger platforms from the floor and from each other shall be 10 feet in
					 so far as is possible and practicable. For smaller platforms a shorter distance
					 is permitted, if it does not interfere with the ventilation of the
					 building.
(c)
Kettles.
On top of melting kettles and distilling apparatus,
					 only such platforms shall be built as are absolutely necessary for the proper
					 handling of the apparatus. It is recommended that care be taken in constructing
					 an apparatus so that vapors and gases cannot escape and injure those obliged to
					 be upon the platform.
(d)
Construction.
Platforms on which work is regularly carried on
					 with nitro and amido compounds shall be light and easy to clean, and covered
					 with sheet lead where advisable.
(e)

Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a)
Pipe
					 lines.
The work in the factories shall be regulated to avoid direct
					 physical contact to the employes of nitro and amido compounds. It is
					 recommended, when practicable, that liquid nitro and amido compounds be
					 transported through closed pipe lines either by pumping, blowing, suction or by
					 gravity.
(b)
Spent
					 air.
Gravity or suction is recommended because in the use of
					 compressed air fine parts of the compounds go off with the air. Spent
					 compressed air shall be vented outside, but if this is obnoxious to persons in
					 the neighborhood, it is recommended that the spent air be purified before it is
					 expelled. This also applies to the air which is expelled from vacuum pumps of
					 distilling apparatus, as it frequently contains small quantities of anilin, and
					 other similar substances.
(c)
Covered apparatus.
Liquid nitro and amido compounds shall be
					 kept and stored only in covered vessels. Whenever the nitro and amido compounds
					 are handled in such manner that dust, gases, or vapors are generated,
					 especially in powdering, sifting and packing operations, the work shall be
					 carried on when practicable in covered or closed apparatus. The vapors from
					 receivers of distillates shall be excluded from work buildings.
(d)
Chiseling.
Chiseling out
					 of solid nitro and amido compounds that are explosive is strictly forbidden and
					 when such compounds are poisonous chiseling is permitted only if proper
					 precautions are taken.
(e)
Drying.
It is recommended that drying be done in separate
					 buildings used for drying only, or in properly constructed apparatus.
					 Frequently drying may be avoided by melting the nitro and amido compounds and
					 breaking them up when they are cold.
(f)
Safety valves.
When
					 boilers are fed with water containing anilin, the boiler shall be fitted with
					 suitable safety valves and water glasses which prevent the entering of steam or
					 water containing anilin into the workroom.
(g)
Exhaust systems.
When
					 the Department or its authorized representative, deems it necessary, all
					 apparatus and machinery in which nitro and amido compounds are manufactured,
					 transported, treated, distilled, centrifuged, filtered, dried, ground, mixed,
					 packed or filled, shall be fitted with a reliable attachment that removes such
					 dust, gases or vapors which may be generated.
(h)
Disposition of vapors.
When the Department or its authorized representative deems it necessary,
					 special care shall be taken to dispose of all vapors which are generated in the
					 opening, discharging, and filling of dry rooms, melting kettles, autoclaves and
					 other pressure vessels.
Pennsylvania Code › Title 34 - LABOR AND INDUSTRY › Part I - Department of Labor and Industry › Chapter 13 - PROPANE AND LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS › Subchapter C - MANUFACTURE OF NITRO AND AMIDO COMPOUNDS › SPECIFICATIONS › Section 13.177 - Cleanliness

Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
The workroom shall be kept free from nitro and amido
						compounds. If any compounds are spilled they shall be removed immediately. The
						floor shall be cleaned at least once every 24 hours.
Pennsylvania Code › Title 34 - LABOR AND INDUSTRY › Part I - Department of Labor and Industry › Chapter 13 - PROPANE AND LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS › Subchapter C - MANUFACTURE OF NITRO AND AMIDO COMPOUNDS › SPECIFICATIONS › Section 13.179 - Repairs

Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a) All repairs and
					 changes on the machinery, apparatus, and pipes for nitro and amido compounds
					 shall be made only after they have been thoroughly cleaned.
(b) If it is necessary for an employe to
					 enter any vats, tanks, or other containers in which there have been used,
					 stored or manufactured, gases, fumes or vapors of an asphyxiating or poisonous
					 nature, or materials which give off gases, fumes, or vapors of an asphyxiating
					 or poisonous nature, the following procedure shall be pursued:
(1) The containers shall be emptied. All
					 connections shall be disconnected and blanked-off.
(2) The containers shall be cleaned
					 thoroughly by repeated washings with water, soda water, steam, compressed air
					 or other suitable means.
(3) If the
					 person in charge then considers conditions satisfactory, employes may enter
					 such containers. They shall use an approved type of helmet and have attached to
					 their bodies a life line or rope if the person in charge considers it
					 necessary.
(4) The life line or
					 rope shall be under the control of one or more fellow workmen who shall remain
					 outside of the container in order to render any necessary assistance.
(5) After the work is finished the men shall
					 take, at once, a bath and change their clothing, including shoes, if the
					 foreman or other person in charge shall deem it necessary. Facilities for
					 taking such baths shall be provided.
