Exposure LIMITS -

Threshold limit values (TLV):

It is the maximum/minimum concentration of constituent of air to which a person can be exposed (No adverse effect on the person's health and safety).

Time weighted average (TWA):

Average concentration to which all workers may be exposed over in 8 hours shift and work hour week (generally considered as TLV).

Short term exposure limit (STEL):
  • TWA concentration occurring over a period of not more than 15 minutes.

  • Concentration TWA to STEL should not last longer then 15 minute (the daily TLV-TWA is not exceeded).

Ceiling limit (CL):

It is the concentration that should not be exceeded at any point of time (used for most toxic gases or substances).
