Chapter 4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions
13. Exhaust vacuum pumps should be filtered and/or ducted to the outside
when using hazardous materials. Consult your Safety Officer.
Manipulations that generate gases or vapors from toxic chemicals or
radionuclides, must be evaluated carefully from the standpoint of buildup
to dangerous levels. The decontamination of the glove box and compliance
with applicable regulations is the responsibility of the operator and safety
officer. Venting or filtering of vacuum pump exhaust is the operator's
responsibility.
14. Ensure that the glove box is connected to electrical service in accordance
with local and national electrical codes. Failure to do so may create a fire
or electrical hazard. Do not remove or service any electrical components
without first disconnecting the glove box from electrical service.
15. Ensure only trained operators use the glove box. New users must review
the User's Manual and become familiar with the operation of the glove
box.
16. Tag the glove box with appropriate warnings, if work inside the glove box
is hazardous or needs to remain untouched. Tag the glove box if it requires
servicing.
17. Consult your Safety Officer before removing any hoses to vacuum pumps,
gas lines, pressure gauges, or exhaust hoses; they may be contaminated
with chemicals used inside the glove box.
