Safety First Series - Process Operator - OSHA Level 'D-5/5' PPE Protection - 3M Air Helmet

Last crawled date: 1 year, 7 months ago

Process operators work in many industries, and in plants that produce electricity, commodity gases (natural gas, propane, butane), gasoline, diesel fuel, industrial chemicals, plastics, ultra pure water, pharmaceuticals, and other such products. To help protect the workers in these industries, The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 was passed, together with the creation of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), whose Standard 1910.120 Appendix B details the four basic levels of protective gear (PPE Levels A-D) required for the Process Operator, with Level A being the highest level of protection and level D being the lowest). This model represents a Process Operator dressed in one style of the lowest Level 'D-5/5' attire. It incorporates either a two-piece work uniform or work coverall, steel-toed safety boots, hard hat, gloves(various types swappable via the Layer's menu),and thebasic Dupont Tyvek coverall which is worn over the basic work uniform or coverall, but eliminates safety glasses and respirator in favor of a 3M Supplied Air helmet used to connect to an external breathing air source such as a Breathing Air System or cylinder Breathing Air. As with all Level D attire, this combiination is good for nuisance contamination (dust) protection only.
