II.B.19 Conditions on Misc. Parts Washer (subject to R307-335-2)
II.B.19.a The permittee shall ensure that the following conditions are met:
(1)Each solvent degreaser is equipped with a cover which shall remain closed except
during actual loading, unloading or handling of parts in cleaner. The cover shall be
designed so that it can be easily operated with one hand if
a.the volatility of the solvent is greater than 2 kPa (15 mm Hg or 0.3 psi)
measured at 38 degrees C (100 degrees F),
b.the solvent is agitated, or
c.the solvent is heated.
(2)An internal draining rack for cleaned parts shall be installed on which parts shall
be drained until all dripping ceases. If the volatility of the solvent is greater than
4.3 kPa (32 mm Hg at 38 degrees C (100 degrees F)), the drainage facility must
be internal, so that parts are enclosed under the cover while draining. The
drainage facility may be external for applications where an internal type cannot fit
into the cleaning system.
(3)Waste or used solvent shall be stored in covered containers.
(4)Tanks, containers and all associated equipment shall be maintained in good
operating condition and leaks shall be repaired immediately or the degreaser shall
be shutdown.
(5)Written procedures for the operation and maintenance of the degreasing or
solvent cleaning equipment shall be permanently posted in an accessible and
conspicuous location near the equipment.
(6)If the solvent volatility is greater than 4.3 kPa (33 mm Hg or 0.6 psi) measured at
38 degrees C (100 degrees F), or if solvent is heated above 50 degrees C (120
degrees F), then one of the following control devices shall be used:
a.freeboard that gives a freeboard ratio greater than 0.7;
b.water cover if the solvent is insoluble in and heavier than water;
c.other systems of equivalent control, such as a refrigerated chiller or
carbon absorption.
(7)If used, the solvent spray shall be a solid fluid stream at a pressure which does not
cause excessive splashing and may not be a fine, atomized or shower type spray.
A visual observation shall be conducted monthly for all equipment and applicable work
practices. Results of monthly inspections and the volatility of the solvent(s) being used shall
be recorded and maintained as described in Provision I.S.1 of this permit.
