This shall be accomplished as far as feasible by accepted engineering control measures (for example, enclosure or confine ment of the operation, general and local ventilation, and substitution of less toxic materials). When effective engineering controls are not feasible, or while they are being instituted, ap propriate respirators shall be used pursuant to the following require ments. (2) Respirators shall be provided by the employer when such equipment is necessary to protect the health of the employee.

The label shall be affixed to the neck end of. or to the gray stripe which is around and near the top of, the canis ter. The degree of protection shall be marked as the percent of penetration of the canister by a 0.3-micron-diameter dioctyl phthalate (DOF) smoke at a flow rate of 85 liters per minute. (5) Each canister shall have a label warning that gas masks should be used only in atmospheres containing suffl- dent oxygen to support life (at least 16 percent by volume), since gas mask canisters are only designed to neutral ize or remove contaminants from the air. (6) Each gas mask canister shall be painted a distinctive color or combina tion of colors indicated in Table 1-1. All colors used shall be such that they are clearly Identifiable by the user and clearly distinguishable from one an other.
