My customer is complaining of irritation fumes from their cabinet washer using Mirachem 750. Are these hazardous and how do we prevent this exhaust?
The fumes are not hazardous, but may be irritating. Cabinet washers typically have an exhaust port at the top or in the back at the top. These should be piped to the outside like a flue. A low velocity fan with a damper is often added to create a positive exhaust. Issues to consider in this situation include, a) Is the customer operating at too high a temperature, b) If the exhaust fan is pulling too much, their fluid usage will increase significantly, or c) Is their ducting re-circulating the exhaust back into the building.
