4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.1 SCBA qualification will be based on classroom instruction, physical examination, and a mask fit test. Disqualification shall result if any one of the t iree requirements for requalification are not met. | |||
4.1.1 All personnel who wear SCBA, except for fit-testing and SCBA training, must pass a medical examination prior to wearing the device and at least every 15 months thereafter provided that the total time over any 3 consecutive examination periods does not exceed 39 months. | |||
4.1.2 Classroom retraining and SCBA fit testing of all the above will be required at 12-month intervals 3 rnonths to ensure that a high degree of proficiency is retained when SCBA protection equipment is used. | |||
NOTE: Fit testing is not required for the Lifeair 10. | |||
4.2 Fit testing will be performed in accordance with OE&RC-0219, 4.3 Following each use of SCBA respiratoro in a radiological area, the facepiece should be cleaned / decontaminated according to OE&RC-0221. | |||
4.4 SCBA respirators used for nonradiological protection should 'oe cleaned after each shift in accordance with OE&RC-0221, 4.5 Respiratnrs permanently issued to individuals should be sanitized after l cach usc by the individual as per manufacturer's instructions. | |||
NOTE: Scott Air-Paks will be inspected in accordance with Attachment 3 following maintenance and decontaminating. | |||
4.6 All SCBA designated as emergency units will be inspected in accordance with Attachment 3 or OE&RC-0221, Attachment A. | |||
4.7 Wearing a SCBA is physically and psychologically stressful, thus the period of time SCBA may be worn should be kept to a minimum. Many factors contribute to this stress, some of which are temperature, humidity, protective clothing requirements, the degree of exertion required for the job task and the current state of the worker's health. | |||
The worker and his supervision should consider these factors and others in determining the length of time that SCBA may be continuously worn. | |||
OFPP-039 Rev.2 Page 6 of 31 1 | |||
4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.8 Individuals using SCBA shall not exceed Threshold Limit Values (TLV), | |||
Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL), or Short Term Exposure Limits (STEL) for respiratory protection. | |||
4.9 !ndividuals working in an airborne radiological contamination area should | |||
] be limited to 40 DAC hours per week. | |||
4.10 All SCBA shall normally be cleaned and sanitized after each use. | |||
Exceptions are noted in this procedures. | |||
4.11 All routinely used SCBA shall be inspected before use and monthly (tolerance i 25%), | |||
4.12 All SCBA designated for emergency use shall be inspected monthly | |||
' 1 (tolerance i 25%). A record of the inspection dates and appropriate findings is to be made. | |||
4.13 Air used to fill SCBA cylinders must meet the requirements of Grade D air. See procedure OE&RC O'15. | |||
4.14 Only SCBA approved by the Bureau of Mines (BM), the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), or the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) shall be used. | |||
4.15 Only SCBA with the additional approval and certification under 30CFR, Part 11, or approved and authorized by the NRC shall be used for protection against radiological airborne contamination. | |||
4.16 Each wearer of respiratory equipment shall be advised that he may leave the area at any time for relief in the event of equipment malfunction, physical or psychological distress, procedural or communication f ailure, significant deterioration of operating conditions, or any other condition that might require such relief. | |||
4.17 Eye glasses or goggles that extend outside mask shall not be worn, 4.18 Contact lens may be worn when a fu.I facepiece respirator is worn for radiological parposes only, if indicated on the individual's medical evaluation reart. | |||
4.19 There shall be no interference between protective headgear (hoods, surgeons cans, etc.) and the normal method of wearing the respirator. | |||
4.20 No individual should be permitted to work alone while wearing SCBA. | |||
OFPP-039 Rev.2 Page 7 of 31 | |||
4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.21 Only SCBA, Ska-Pak with Escape bottle, or the Hip-Air combination pressure demand breathing apparatus shall be used in environments that have oxygen deficiencies or toxic gases. The Lifeair 10 is for escape only. The Lifeair 10 operates in a constant flow mode. | |||
4.22 The Ska-Pak with Escape bottle or the Hip-Air portion of the MSA combination pressure demand (hose line) breathing apparatus permits the use of this hose line respirator in IDLH atmospheres. This permits the use of Gie hose line for extended periods of work. The hose line must be connected prior to entering the IDLH atmosphere and the self contained air supply must only be used for escape when necessary. | |||
CAUTION Compressed air may contain slight amounts of oil which could coat. internals (orifices);if high pressure oxygen passes through this orifice, a fire or explosion Can occur. | |||
4.23 Oxygen and breathing air are not to be used in the same apparatus. That is, compressed oxygen shall never be used in SCBA cylinders, 4.24 The service life of Scott Air-Pak 4.5 SCBA at Brunswick are rated at 1 hour. This time may be a little longer if very sedate activities are performed. A much shorter time, up to 50% less, should normally be expected under strenuous work conditions. Vigorous work activity, cylinder's charge, training and experience of individual, individual's physical condition, and individual's emotional state are all factors that can effect the amount of time an individual will have in using the equipment. | |||
4.25 The service life of the Lifcair 10 and SCBA portion of the MSA Hip-Air and Scott Ska-Pak with Escape bottle is from 5 to 10 minutes. | |||
4.26 Fittings on respiratory equipment, mainly hose linc units, must not be compatible with other gas supplies that are not suitable for respiratory use. | |||
4.27 If there is no airborne or potential airborne radioactivity, the need for respiratory protection shall be based on the following. | |||

4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.1 SCBA qualification will be based on classroom instruction, physical examination, and a mask fit test. Disqualification shall result if any one of the t iree requirements for requalification are not met.
4.1.1 All personnel who wear SCBA, except for fit-testing and SCBA training, must pass a medical examination prior to wearing the device and at least every 15 months thereafter provided that the total time over any 3 consecutive examination periods does not exceed 39 months.
4.1.2 Classroom retraining and SCBA fit testing of all the above will be required at 12-month intervals 3 rnonths to ensure that a high degree of proficiency is retained when SCBA protection equipment is used.
NOTE: Fit testing is not required for the Lifeair 10.
4.2 Fit testing will be performed in accordance with OE&RC-0219, 4.3 Following each use of SCBA respiratoro in a radiological area, the facepiece should be cleaned / decontaminated according to OE&RC-0221.
4.4 SCBA respirators used for nonradiological protection should 'oe cleaned after each shift in accordance with OE&RC-0221, 4.5 Respiratnrs permanently issued to individuals should be sanitized after l cach usc by the individual as per manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Scott Air-Paks will be inspected in accordance with Attachment 3 following maintenance and decontaminating.
4.6 All SCBA designated as emergency units will be inspected in accordance with Attachment 3 or OE&RC-0221, Attachment A.
4.7 Wearing a SCBA is physically and psychologically stressful, thus the period of time SCBA may be worn should be kept to a minimum. Many factors contribute to this stress, some of which are temperature, humidity, protective clothing requirements, the degree of exertion required for the job task and the current state of the worker's health.
The worker and his supervision should consider these factors and others in determining the length of time that SCBA may be continuously worn.
OFPP-039 Rev.2 Page 6 of 31 1
4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.8 Individuals using SCBA shall not exceed Threshold Limit Values (TLV),
Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL), or Short Term Exposure Limits (STEL) for respiratory protection.
4.9 !ndividuals working in an airborne radiological contamination area should
] be limited to 40 DAC hours per week.
4.10 All SCBA shall normally be cleaned and sanitized after each use.
Exceptions are noted in this procedures.
4.11 All routinely used SCBA shall be inspected before use and monthly (tolerance i 25%),
4.12 All SCBA designated for emergency use shall be inspected monthly
' 1 (tolerance i 25%). A record of the inspection dates and appropriate findings is to be made.
4.13 Air used to fill SCBA cylinders must meet the requirements of Grade D air. See procedure OE&RC O'15.
4.14 Only SCBA approved by the Bureau of Mines (BM), the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), or the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) shall be used.
4.15 Only SCBA with the additional approval and certification under 30CFR, Part 11, or approved and authorized by the NRC shall be used for protection against radiological airborne contamination.
4.16 Each wearer of respiratory equipment shall be advised that he may leave the area at any time for relief in the event of equipment malfunction, physical or psychological distress, procedural or communication f ailure, significant deterioration of operating conditions, or any other condition that might require such relief.
4.17 Eye glasses or goggles that extend outside mask shall not be worn, 4.18 Contact lens may be worn when a fu.I facepiece respirator is worn for radiological parposes only, if indicated on the individual's medical evaluation reart.
4.19 There shall be no interference between protective headgear (hoods, surgeons cans, etc.) and the normal method of wearing the respirator.
4.20 No individual should be permitted to work alone while wearing SCBA.
OFPP-039 Rev.2 Page 7 of 31
4.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS 4.21 Only SCBA, Ska-Pak with Escape bottle, or the Hip-Air combination pressure demand breathing apparatus shall be used in environments that have oxygen deficiencies or toxic gases. The Lifeair 10 is for escape only. The Lifeair 10 operates in a constant flow mode.
4.22 The Ska-Pak with Escape bottle or the Hip-Air portion of the MSA combination pressure demand (hose line) breathing apparatus permits the use of this hose line respirator in IDLH atmospheres. This permits the use of Gie hose line for extended periods of work. The hose line must be connected prior to entering the IDLH atmosphere and the self contained air supply must only be used for escape when necessary.
CAUTION Compressed air may contain slight amounts of oil which could coat. internals (orifices);if high pressure oxygen passes through this orifice, a fire or explosion Can occur.
4.23 Oxygen and breathing air are not to be used in the same apparatus. That is, compressed oxygen shall never be used in SCBA cylinders, 4.24 The service life of Scott Air-Pak 4.5 SCBA at Brunswick are rated at 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />. This time may be a little longer if very sedate activities are performed. A much shorter time, up to 50% less, should normally be expected under strenuous work conditions. Vigorous work activity, cylinder's charge, training and experience of individual, individual's physical condition, and individual's emotional state are all factors that can effect the amount of time an individual will have in using the equipment.
4.25 The service life of the Lifcair 10 and SCBA portion of the MSA Hip-Air and Scott Ska-Pak with Escape bottle is from 5 to 10 minutes.
4.26 Fittings on respiratory equipment, mainly hose linc units, must not be compatible with other gas supplies that are not suitable for respiratory use.
4.27 If there is no airborne or potential airborne radioactivity, the need for respiratory protection shall be based on the following.

ATTACHMENT 0 Page 1 of 1 Equipment Description NOTE: Refer to Attachment 1 for respirator protection factors.
1.0 Scott Air Pak 4.5 with pressure demand regulator, low pressure alarm, and primary pressure reducer failure alarm. This equipment carries NIOSH/MSHA certification No. TC 13F 96 and is approved for entry into and escape from oxygen deficient atmospheres, it may be used in atmospheres up to 2,500 times DAC. A protection factor of 10,000 shall be used for this equipment for all materials except tritium. A protection factor of 1.99 shall be used for tritium.
2.0 Th6 MSA Hip Air is a variation of the Combination Pressure Demand Breathhg Apparatus where the regulator and bottle are on opposite sides of the wtsist with a hose connecting the two. It has NIOSH approval number TC 13F 143. Other than the above, the two models are the same. The MSA Combination Pressure Demand Breathing Apparatus NIOSH approval T*-13F-123 is a variation of a hose line respirator, it includes a pressure deraand regulator with an 8.7 cu. ft. air supply bottle for use in case of alttine failure. The device straps onto your waist with a shoulder strap to support the weight.
NOTE: The bottled air is only to be used for emergency escape.
3.0 The Scott Ska Pak with Escape Bottle has NIOSH approval number TC 13F 332.
4.0 The airline models require an approved hose,25 to 300 foot in length and an operating pressure of G5 to 85 PSI. These models allow for use of a hoseline respirator in an IDLH atmosphere; thus, increasing an individual's stay time over the use ci a SCBA.
5.0 The Lifeair 10 (Model L 510) carries a NIOSH approval No, TC13F178. The ur.it provides ten minutes of respiratory protection from any unbreathable atmosphere such as an oxygen deficiency, toxic gases, vapors, mists, dusts, and smoke. It offers protection to any wearer, even those with spectacles ;
or beardt. The Lifeair 10 should not be used to enter areas already i containing an irrespirable atmosphere. This unit will not protect against j gases, mists, or vapors which poison through skin absorption. A protection !
factor of 10,000 shall be used for this equipment. This equipment is used ;
for emergency escape situations only.
