Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not
furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from
recognized hazards that
were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
employees, in that, employees
were exposed to potential fire and explosion hazards caused by combustible
dusts, including but
not limited to titanium, being collected into an inadequately designed
dust collection system:
EDAC Aero Engine Component Repair (AECR), Spray Area:
A.A media dust collector, the DustHog SC600, was used to collect
combustible dusts such
as titanium.
B.The DustHog SC600 dust collection system was used for collecting dust
from titanium,
nickel, magnesium, steel, cobalt and aluminum materials, without being
thoroughly
cleaned.
C.Air from the DustHog SC600 dry dust collector was exhausted into the
work area.
D.The dust collector and machines were not posted that they were for use
with combustible
metals and different types of metals were processed into the same dust
collection system.
Specific Abatement Documentation is Required
Abatement Note:
Potential ignition sources include sparks from grinding metals and static
electricity from the
adjacent spray booth, in which the ventilation system is not interlocked
with the spray gun and
the spray gun is not grounded.
NFPA 484, Standard for Combustible Metals, Chapter 10 covers Machining,
Fabrication and
Finishing of Titanium Parts.  Adherence to the following sections of the
NFPA standard would
ensure compliance:
10.4.4.4  If the titanium dust-collecting unit is to be used for other
materials, it shall be
thoroughly cleaned of all incompatible materials prior to and after use.
10.4.4.5  Grinders, buffers and associated equipment with dust collectors
utilized
for processing
titanium shall be provided with a placard that reads as follows:
CAUTION:  Current Use:  Titanium Metal - Fire or Explosion Can Result with
Other
Metals.
10.4.8.1  Electrostatic and media collectors shall not be used.
10.4.8.6  Dust shall be removed from the dry collectors at the end of each
workday and at more
frequent intervals if conditions warrant.
10.4.9  Recycling of Exhaust Air.  Recycling of air from dry dust
collectors into buildings shall
be prohibited.
10.7.8  All electrical equipment and wiring in titanium production
processing, handling, and
storage facilities shall comply with NFPA 70, National Electric Code.
10.7.10  All metal objects or equipment used to process titanium shall be
electrically bonded and
grounded to prevent accumulations of static electricity.s
