Revised: October 20, 1983 VINYL CHLORIDE AND AREA MONITORING MONOMER ALARM SYSTEM, PVC RESIN DEPARTMENT The VCM alarm system at PVC monitors up to l6 points while providing a two-level alarm system in the manufacturing plant and storage areas. It is made up of Bendix sampling boards which continuously draw air samples from the test points giving a low time span between the time which the sample was tested and the time which the sample was taken. The samples are tested in a gas chromatograph from Bendix, Model 007 Analyzer. Data gathering, comparison, input, and output is handled by a Hewlett Packard 2108a mini-computer with 2^*K of memory and a Texas Instruments Silent 700 print er/tape cassette recorder. The vinyl chloride alarm system is based on two-leves, low-level, currently set at l.Oppm VCM, and high level, currently set at 25ppm VCM. Alarm operation is as follows: 1. Low Level - Initiating rotating blue alarm lights in specific plant areas, indicating the need for operating personnel to wear approved respiratory protection. 2. High Level - Initiating a horn in the appropriate area, which requires the wearing of airline or self-contained respiratory prot ection. The alarm set points are entered into the computer which then compares all tests to these set points. Once exceeded, the appropriate alarm(s) for the correspond ing area(s) are initiated. The alarm(s) are designed to remain on until another test of the area through the sample system and a chromatograph produces a VCM con centration under the set point. The low level alarm is automatically activated when the high level set point is exceeded. EPA monitoring points are annunciated on a panel in the MAC Room if the alarm set points are exceeded. This will alert personnel to leaking equipment that re quires investigation and correction. The control center, housing the above equipment, is located in the PVC area, close to the main personnel entrance. It also has an annunciator which displays all alarms at PVC and their level, low or high. This can be seen from outside the center and gives an indication at a glance of the alarm situation in the many areas at PVC PORTABLE ANALYZERS Century OVA 98 total hydorcarbon analyzers and/or Hnu photoionizers are used to back-up the Bendix Monitoring System and to locate random VCM leaks. Update - February, 1982. Ecolyzer L00 LFL, Oxygen Analyzer, Monitor has been purchased for monitoring in remote areas.

EQUIPMENT: The only respiratory equipment approved for use in dealing with an emergency is the Scott Air Pak. These units are located as follows: 2 - MCC #3-A emergency center 1 - Bldg. 7 East Wall Upstairs 1 - Bldg. 7 Lower near stairway 1 - Bldg. 1-W at west stairwell 1 - Bldg. 1-E outside fire door - downstairs 1 - Bldg. 1-E upstairs near maintenance supply room 1 - Safety Equipment Room 1 - Supervisor's Office (Outside - opposite 6' dryer) 1 - Bldg. 31 office (Reserve Center) 1 -Bldg. 10 - Semi-Pilot Plant hallway Any Scott Pak used for an emergency must be taken to the Mask Room so that empty tanks can be replaced with full ones, and the face pieces can be cleafied as soon as possible. The Safety Department should be notified any time Scott Paks are used during hours other than Monday through Friday, 0800-1700 hours except holidays, by contacting Steve Shaw (S34-0546) or Ken Macy, Jr. (874-2013). During regular office hours, call 241, 297, or 322. Take any used Scott Pak to the Mask Room immediately following any emergency for tank replacement. The EPA Technician will be in the Mask Room during emergencies for tank replacement if necessary. Used Scott Paks must be returned to their designated location as soon as the tank has been replaced. ALERT: The Bendix monitor will sound the area alarm at 25ppm. This is a warning that a higher concentration may exist. If the cause of this alarm is judged as an emergency or indication of a massive VCM release, the local alarm will be sounded. EVACUATION PROCEDURE - PVC DEPARTMENT 1. All personnel except the Action Team must evacuate operating areas at the sounding of the local or fire alarm. A. Operating personnel reporting to Reserve Center - Bldg. 31 B.
