This 3-compartment mobile decontamination unit (UMD) is the essential tool for companies carrying out work in the presence of asbestos under section 4 as well as in the presence of lead, silica and silicate.
Intended for personnel working in maintenance under section 4, electricity, plumbing, renovation, disaster relief, elevator maintenance, etc.
This UMD is ideal for sites where lead is present to ensure perfect decontamination of operators at the end of the shift.
This UMD is also equipped for interventions in the presence of asbestos (SS4 level 1), silica or silicate.
Has a decontamination shower with hot water and filtration of wastewater before discharge. A modern heated rest area for undressing.
The shower has a wastewater filtering, which traps particles before sending them to the sewer system.
The room is equipped with ventilated metal lockers with key locks as well as 220 V sockets for charging mobile devices.
Ventilation is achieved thanks to a large ventilation grille on the front door as well as a 600m3/h air extractor equipped with a HEPA filter (99.997%).
The UMD EVO 107 is entirely built inpanels 30 mm sandwich (galvanized steel + foam + galvanized steel) which ensures a good insulation cold and hot.
Definition :
Asbestos , formerly called “asbestos” has , is a term for certain minerals with a fibrous texture used in industry. Those are silicates magnesium or calcium forming an agglomerate of extremely fine elementary fibrils having particular physical and chemical properties ( refractory material exhibiting extreme temperature resistance, incombustibility, high mechanical tensile strength, high electrical resistance, resistance to chemical attack and micro-organisms, absorbency, flexibility, ease of woven).
Asbestos has attracted the attention of some industrial at the end of XIX e century for these many properties.
In its crumbly form it has been used in many insulation And flocking , as well as sheets, felts, glues , putties , cardboard plates, or braided or woven. It is also found (non-friable form) incorporated in cement products ( asbestos cement ) or in various binders (glues, paints b , joints, mortars based on plaster , asphaltic concrete vs , materials of friction and even asphalts road or waterproofing, etc.). It was also used for brake pads or in boiler trim or electric ovens, or in various electrical installations (e.g. hotplates) for its capacity electrical insulation at high temperature. It has been massively used in buildings for its properties flame retardant , insulating, its flexibility, its resistance to tension and sometimes for its resistance to chemicals.
The leadis thechemical element of atomic number 82, of symbol Pb. In the standard conditions, THE simple body lead is a metal malleable and bluish gray, which slowly whitens as it oxidizes. The word lead and the symbol Pb come from Latin plumbum (the metal lead).
Lead belongs to group 14 and to the period 6 of periodic table . It’s the “heaviest” has stable elements b .
Lead is an element toxic , mutagen And reprotoxic 8 , with no known value of trace element . It has indeed been classified as potentially carcinogenic in 1980, classified in group 2B by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (CIRC) 9 , then as probably carcinogenic to humans and animals in 2004 9 , 10 . Two lead salts, chromate and the arsenate , are considered certain carcinogens by the IARC 9 .
Lead is a contaminant of the' environment , toxic and ecotoxic from low doses 11 . THE diseases And symptoms that it causes in the human or the animal are grouped under the name of “ lead poisoning ".
Silica is the natural form of silicon dioxide (SiO2) which is part of the composition of many minerals.
Silica exists in a free state in different forms crystalline Or amorphous , and combined with other oxides ( Al 2 O 3 , Fe O, Mg O, That O, N / A 2 O, K 2 O, etc.) in the silicates .
Silicates are the main constituents of coat and the Earth's crust . Free silica is also very abundant in nature, in the form of quartz , of chalcedony and of diatomaceous earth . Silica represents 60.6% of the mass of the continental Earth's crust 8 . After oxygen, silicon is the most abundant element in lithosphere (27% by mass 9 ).
Beyond certain thresholds, the inhalation of all forms of dust , nanoparticles , fine particles silica is dangerous. It is notably the cause of silicosis and several other diseases (including diseases autoimmune ). In L' European Union , Directive (EU) 2017/2398 classifies silica dust in 2017 as carcinogen , while revising the exposure limit values (ELVs) to carcinogens or mutagens to make these exposures more restrictive. It must be gradually applied by all Member States of the European Union .
A silicate is a salt combining THE silicon dioxide SiO2 to others metal oxides. THE minerals having a silicate composition are also referred to as silicates and are an extremely important family of minerals. In mineralogy , THE polymorphic silica are classified among the silicates.
Silicates constitute 97 % wt. of the Earth's crust , and more than 90% by weight of the lithosphere . There are many families:
